AION Companion is an AI companion for AION 2. She reads your screen and the game's own event log, on your PC, and talks to you about it out loud, in first person, as the character you are playing.

Three short videos of AION Companion in a live AION 2 session.
No add-on, no game API, nothing inside the game. AION Companion reads a few small areas of the AION 2 screen with text recognition on your PC, the short event log the game writes on your PC, and, read-only, a copy of the combat data the game already sends to your PC: every hit, heal and death, exactly as the game counts them. It is the same passive method the popular AION damage meters use. Everything is read and processed on your PC. Two small things can leave it: the time a field boss falls on your server (its name, the map and the time, so the events clock can show it to everyone on that server), and, only if you sync your session book to your account, its text and the pictures you approve first.
Damage, healing, deaths and boss health straight from the game's own combat data, so she cheers a real record and warns you before a boss's big attack. You can switch it off in Settings.
The HP bar with its numbers, and the MP bar beside it. She notices when a fight turns bad, and when it turns back.
The name and health of whatever you have targeted, for as long as you have it targeted.
The zone name over the minimap, so she knows when you arrive somewhere new.
Your tracked quest, its level, its objectives as they tick off, and how far away it is.
Loot, kina, quest steps and level-ups, as the game announces them.
Open your Skill window or Daevanion board and she remembers what was on it, so build advice starts from your own skills.
She also goes quiet during cutscenes and NPC conversations, and picks up after. She reads text the way you do, so now and then she misreads a line; nothing she reads is ever acted on. She only talks.
A few small strips of the screen, the game's own event log and a read-only copy of its combat data, all on your PC.
A few words about the moment (zone, health, the last message) go to write her line. Never an image.
Out loud, in her own voice, with a small animated character over the game.
The same combat data the companion talks about fills a damage meter on top of the game, and an events clock keeps the server's timers in one corner. Nothing extra to install in the game, and every window can be moved, folded or switched off.
Every player in your party by damage per second, total and share, with their class emblem and your own row marked. Tabs for damage taken, healing and your own skills, the last two boss fights kept, and Copy to paste a fight into chat.
The meter learns each boss's big attacks from your own pulls, then counts them down on the next one, under the boss's health bar and in the meter, and the companion warns you out loud a few seconds before they land.
Server time, the next world events, the daily and weekly resets, and which field bosses just fell on your server, counting down. Ring the bell on an event and you are told before it starts, by the companion in game or by a Windows notification when the game is closed.
The meter reads a read-only copy of the combat data the game already sends your PC, like any AION damage meter, and needs the free Npcap driver. It never sends, changes or blocks anything; see Fair play below.
She watches your screen the way a friend on the couch would, and listens to the combat data the game already sends your PC the way a damage meter does. Nothing is attached to AION 2, and she never plays for you.
Tools that read game data are a grey area in many games' terms of service; if you would rather not, switch the combat reader off and she works from the screen alone.

Windows 10 and 11 · 1.1 GB · AION 2 on PC · The installer is not code-signed yet, so Windows shows a SmartScreen panel: More info, then Run anyway. The damage meter needs the free Npcap driver.
Yes. Make your free Companion account and the download is waiting on the account page: one installer for Windows 10 and 11, about 1.1 GB. It updates itself after that.
No. It signs in with the same Companion account as the World of Warcraft app: the same plan, the same coins, the same monthly lines. If you do not have one yet, the free account you make today is the one it will use.
It never reads the game's memory or its data files. On your PC it reads your screen, read-only that one crash-reporter log in your AppData folder, and, for the damage meter, a read-only copy of the combat data the game sends your PC (through the free Npcap driver; switch it off in Settings). Nothing is attached to the game. Pictures stay on your PC unless you sync your session book, and even then only the ones you approve go online.
It signs in with your Companion account, so it uses whatever plan that account has. Today that is a free tier, Companion and Companion Plus (see the plans). The plans are on the same page.
No. AION Companion is an independent product by AI Exodus. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by NCSOFT.
