In 2025, Casio launched Moflin, a $429 robotic companion animal powered by what the company calls Emotional AI. The device learns from its interactions with its owner over time to develop a unique personality, and is marketed as a mental wellness product. All of Moflin's data processing happens on the device itself — nothing is sent to the cloud or stored by Casio.

Details

Moflin launched in Japan in November 2024 and in the United States in October 2025 at $429. It uses built-in sensors — including accelerometers, gyroscopes, touch sensors, and microphones — combined with machine learning running on-device to generate what Casio claims are more than 4 million distinct emotional configurations. Voice input is converted into non-identifiable feature data and stored locally, with no personally identifiable information collected. A companion app called MofLife is available for iOS and Android, allowing users to view their Moflin's emotional state and interaction history. Casio describes Moflin in its financial disclosures as a 'mental wellness' product targeting the growing AI-powered emotional support market.
