Common Questions
What is the beta site for?
The beta site handles accounts, support pages, policies, guidance, feedback, and the handoff into the CO3 app while the experience is still being tested.
Why can I log in but not use the app yet?
During private beta, new accounts start pending. Confirm your email first, then wait for the CO3 team to approve beta access. Until then, public browsing stays open but private app actions stay locked.
What unlocks after beta approval?
Approved beta users can chat, create character and user personas, use V2 templates and AI-assisted drafting, publish and like public personas, save private content, sync account data, manage connection settings, use supported BYO providers, and send account-tied feedback from the app.
Where do I report bugs?
Use the feedback form and choose the bug category. Include the page, what you clicked, what happened, and what you expected.
Where do I send safety or moderation concerns?
Use the safety category in feedback. If the concern involves an account, include the email address connected to that account.
Is BYO API required?
Not always. Some testers may have CO3-managed model access granted on their account. If not, BYO API is the fallback for chat testing.
Will using a model provider make chats feel generic?
It should not feel like opening a normal provider chat window. The key gives CO3 model access, while CO3's personas, roleplay styles, scene context, and chat controls shape the provider into a character-focused roleplay experience.
Which roleplay style should I use?
Start with Let-It-Rip for balanced scene movement. Use Save-It-For-Later for slower, quieter, more restrained scenes. Use Fak-Attack for faster dialogue, banter, and conversation-forward characters. Use Every-Second-Counts when embodied attention and prose-forward presence matter most.
Should I send my API key in feedback?
No. Never send API keys through feedback, chats, screenshots, email, or public posts. If a key was exposed, revoke it with the provider.
What rules can CO3 enforce?
The Terms of Service and Community Guidelines explain account, content, safety, and platform rules that can be enforced during beta.
Can I sell fan personas or fanfiction through CO3?
No. CO3 is built for noncommercial fan activity, original work, and collaborative roleplay. Do not sell, commission, paywall, or claim ownership of fanworks based on copyrighted material you do not own.
Is CO3 official or affiliated with fandom rights holders?
No. CO3 is independent and is not endorsed by or affiliated with publishers, studios, franchises, celebrities, authors, or rights holders unless CO3 says so explicitly.
How do I ask about my account or data?
Use the feedback form and include the email address connected to your account. Do not include passwords, API keys, private tokens, or billing credentials.
Where should I start if I am not sure what I need?
Start with Getting Started for setup, Chat Guidance for chat behavior, or Support if the problem is account-specific.
