About the startup
DeskSprite is a free desktop pet app for Windows and macOS. Your pet answers clicks, notices your cursor, sits wherever you drag it, and naps quietly while you focus. Its signature feature is the AI pet maker: upload 1-3 photos of your cat or dog and AI generates a full set of action clips that keep your pet's real look — then one click moves it onto your desktop. The app, the built-in pet and the free shop pets cost nothing; your first AI-custom pet is included with sign-up.
