What Scatter Lab does
Scatter Lab is the company behind zeta, an AI entertainment service that launched in April 2024. Users shape an open-ended interactive story by chatting with AI characters, and the AI responds in real time to their words and actions. The service runs on a proprietary model called Spotwrite-1, which is tuned for entertainment value rather than strict accuracy. Free users see mid-roll ads, and a paid subscription called zeta Pro removes them. The company plans to add AI-generated images, voice, video, and XR, and a Japanese version is already in use. The company reports roughly 800,000 monthly active users, a self-reported figure, and the site does not state a price.
