EVA AI rebrands as Joi AI — a judgment-free alternative to dating apps, where anyone can connect and explore with their dream partner

Published

Along with the rebranding and marking the inaugural Dating Stress Awareness Day on April 7th, Joi AI is introducing new features designed to enhance the personalization and authenticity of its AI-powered avatars

NEW YORK, April 7, 2025 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Joi AI, the digital relationship platform formerly known as EVA AI, today announced its new brand positioning as a sex-positive space for users to indulge in romance, practice dating, and explore their fantasies. Coinciding with the launch of innovative new features that empower users to create their ideal companion and enhance the natural communication capabilities of its artificial intelligence-powered avatars, Joi AI offers a stress- and judgment-free alternative for individuals seeking a break from traditional dating.

At Joi, we’re not replacing real-life connection – we’re replacing the endless scroll. By chatting with their ideal companion, users gain insight into themselves, rebuild confidence, and reenter the dating world – on Joi or IRL – with clarity and a renewed sense of joy.

Joi AI decided to reposition following its recent survey of 2,000 men in the US, which explored the common challenges men face in dating. The findings revealed that 69% of respondents feel their conversations on dating apps rarely or never lead to actual dates, with only 11% dating regularly. Additionally, 48% believe dating apps are not designed to help the average person find a compatible match. These frustrations have left many men disillusioned, with 51% stating dating apps have made them question their attractiveness or self-worth, and 41% insisting that dating apps are a scam.

Addressing the demand for an alternative means of romantic, emotional, and sexual connection, Joi AI enables users to build digital relationships with highly realistic virtual companions capable of understanding their desires and sharing their interests. Leveraging advanced generative AI, avatars can engage in natural conversation and now share tailored hyper-realistic video messages generated in real-time based on the user’s desires, enhancing the depth and authenticity of digital interactions through Joi AI.

The platform now enables users to design their ideal partner by customizing their avatar’s appearance and personality, or choose from a library of over 100 digital duplicates based on real-life models. Additionally, Joi AI now allows users to share their created avatars on the platform’s grid, allowing others to chat and play with their created companions.

“Modern dating feels like a dead end. The swiping, the ghosting, the pressure – it’s exhausting,” – said Cale Jones, Head of Community Growth at Joi AI. “At Joi, we’re not replacing real-life connection – we’re replacing the endless scroll. By chatting with their ideal companion, users gain insight into themselves, rebuild confidence, and reenter the dating world – on Joi or IRL – with clarity and a renewed sense of joy. We’re not ending dating, we’re ending endless swiping.”

To mark the relaunch, Joi AI has also announced the establishment of Dating Stress Awareness Day, to be observed annually on the 7th of April. With 70% of men admitting their experiences on dating apps have made them feel more hopeless about their romantic prospects, the day will draw attention to the widespread challenges many individuals face in navigating the modern dating landscape.

ABOUT JOI AI

Joi AI, formerly EVA AI, is a digital relationship platform that enables users to chat and bond with realistic virtual companions capable of understanding desires and engaging in natural conversation. Users can design their ideal partner by customizing the appearance and personality of their avatar, choose from 100+ digital duplicates based on real-life models, or select from a diverse pool of user-generated characters. Through text interactions and video messages – generated in real-time utilizing generative AI – Joi AI offers a sex-positive environment for users to indulge in romance, practice dating, and explore their fantasies free from stress or judgment.

LogicGate Named Winner of the ISACA Innovative Solutions Award for the Organization’s AI Governance Solution

Published

By

The industry-recognized solution helps enterprises better govern and manage the implementation and usage of AI technology throughout the entirety of their organizations.

CHICAGO, May 23, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — LogicGate, the modern, enterprise-grade provider of governance, risk, and compliance (GRC) solutions, today announced its AI Governance Solution was recognized for the prestigious ISACA Innovative Solutions Award. The industry accolade honors LogicGate for its groundbreaking AI Governance Solution, designed to empower safe innovation, accelerate business growth, and enable organizations to navigate the complexities of artificial intelligence responsibly. 

The ISACA Innovative Solutions Award acknowledges individuals or organizations that have developed or utilized technology to solve significant business or societal challenges. Judging criteria include the innovative use or development of new technology, promotion of ISACA’s core domains, impact and global reach of the solution, and the quality of the nomination.

“LogicGate’s AI Governance Solution is not just another tool in the GRC space—it is essential to reshaping how organizations approach AI governance,” said Matt Kunkel, Co-Founder and CEO at LogicGate. “With the rapid evolution and widespread adoption of AI, particularly generative AI, every industry is confronted with the challenge of governing the use of this technology and its various applications. Our approach was to create a prescriptive yet flexible AI governance framework that enterprises could easily adopt and tailor to their unique AI guidelines and requirements.” 

As AI technologies become increasingly integral to business operations, the necessity for robust AI governance has become paramount. Recent research by OCEG on the “Use of AI for GRC” found that while 82% of respondents agree or strongly agree they must adopt generative AI, only 12% reported having a documented AI Governance plan in place. This highlights a critical gap that LogicGate’s AI Governance Solution aims to address. 

LogicGate’s AI Governance Solution provides a comprehensive set of workflows to ensure AI initiatives are transparent, accountable, and aligned with regulatory standards. The solution includes centralized use case management, cyber risk assessments, policy management, controls compliance, and third-party AI risk oversight, all within an easy-to-use platform. This holistic approach bridges the growing gap between GRC and AI, enabling organizations to confidently harness the power of AI while safeguarding against unintended consequences. 

“A key differentiator of LogicGate’s AI Governance Solution is its integration with the full spectrum of governance, risk, compliance, and cybersecurity programs,” said Jon Siegler, Co-Founder and Chief Product Officer at LogicGate. “This integration ensures that AI governance processes are seamlessly incorporated into cyber risk management, third-party risk management, policy management, and controls management.”

Specifically, LogicGate’s AI Governance Solution enables organizations to:

Leverage out-of-the-box workflows for submitting, reviewing, and approving AI initiatives and models.Identify AI risks and automate assessment, quantification, and mitigation activities.Reinforce AI risk tolerance and standardize AI policies with automated approvals and attestations.Leverage best practices and control recommendations from the NIST AI Risk Management Framework.Identify embedded AI technologies and risks in third-party services.

LogicGate, along with other award recipients of the 2025 Global Achievement Awards, Chapter Awards, Certification Exam Top Scores, and the 2025 class of the Hall of Fame were recognized at the ISACA Awards Celebration in Orlando, Florida, during ISACA’s 2025 North America Conference.
