🚨 Hey Product Hunt!
Tired of that same old, annoying alarm? So were we.
That’s why we built Character Alarm. It’s a simple idea: instead of a tiny notification, you get a real, full-screen phone call from an AI character you actually want to talk to.
🧠 How it works:
🎨 Create Your Buddy: Upload any image, give it a personality, and poof! You’ve got your own unique character.
🎭 Pick a Vibe: Create any friend, motivator, or chaotic roomie you can imagine to be your wake-up companion.
📞 A True Call Experience: This isn't a push notification. By using Apple's CallKit, it’s a native, full-screen call. You can answer it right from your lock screen, just like a real phone call. It’s a truly immersive experience.
🎤 Just Say It: Tell your character "Wake me up at 7 AM," and they'll handle the rest. Super easy.
💬 A Real Connection: During the call, your character actually remembers you and cheers you on. It feels like talking to a real friend, not a robot.
🌞 Why we built this?
Because mornings shouldn't suck. We wanted to replace the cold, jarring alarm with a wake-up call that feels warm, personal, and something you'll actually look forward to.
🙌 It's Free & We Need Your Ideas!
Character Alarm is 100% free to use. Take it for a spin and tell us what you think.
We have one question for you: What's the first character you're going to create?

What a unique concept! The ability to upload any image and create a character is fantastic. Can the AI character adapt its tone or personality over time based on our interactions? I think that would add a lot to the experience. 😊
@jaredl Thank you so much for the kind words! And that's an amazing question—you've hit on a core part of the experience.😊
Yes, it absolutely does! The character has memory and will adapt its tone and personality based on your interactions over time. We agree, that's where the real magic happens. Hope you have fun discovering it!
May be small, but it is indeed very warm, congratulations. 🎉
@w_lib This comment totally made our day, thank you! "Warm" is exactly the feeling we were going for. So happy it came through!😊
Love this idea! Finally, a fun way to wake up. My old alarm is officially fired. Congrats on the launch! 🚀
Congrats! Personalized alarm is definitely needed for vibe coders lol
@yijie_cao Thank you so much! You've absolutely nailed it. We really believe that how you start the day sets the tone for everything that follows, especially for creative work. So glad that resonates with you.
Okay this is honestly such a fun idea. Waking up to an anime crush or a chaotic roommate sounds way better than a boring ringtone. Love the personality and creativity behind this. Congrats on the launch and good luck!! @bruce_finch :) :)
@chaosandcoffee thank you for such a thoughtful comment! We're so happy you love the personality and creativity—we poured our hearts into it. ❤️
