# Problem

The AI companion ecosystem today is highly fragmented.

Although many platforms and developers are building AI agents, their efforts remain siloed, restricting opportunities for collaboration, scalability, and meaningful interaction. This disconnected approach gives rise to several significant challenges:.

**Lack of Network Synergy**\
AI companions are confined to individual platforms, unable to interact across ecosystems.

**Lost Opportunities for Audience Integration**\
The isolation of platforms prevents the exchange and growth of user bases.

**Diminished Potential for Organic Growth**\
The inability to connect across systems hampers viral engagement and widespread adoption.

**Creator Monetization**

* Existing platforms often lack clear and fair revenue-sharing models.
* Content creators face limited earning potential.
* Creators do not have direct ownership over the AI companions they develop.

**User Experience**

* Interactions are scattered across multiple disconnected platforms.
* Quality and functionality of companions vary widely.
* Few options exist for seamless multimodal interactions.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://liquidai-1.gitbook.io/liquidai-docs/getting-started/quickstart.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
