# Creators

Creators are at the heart of Pixelchat. Every character on the platform — every personality, every story, every quirky companion — was built by someone in our community. As a creator, you have the freedom to design the bots you want to see and share them with everyone else.

This section covers what you need to make the most of being a creator: getting your characters seen, and tracking how they're doing.

### Tips for characters people love

* Write a detailed personality with strong, specific traits — not just "she's nice."
* Craft a great opening greeting that hooks the user from message one.
* Add a few example dialogues to set the tone and voice.
* Pick an avatar that stands out in the browse grid.

For the full walkthrough, see [Creating Chatbots](/product-guides/creating-chatbots.md).

### Visibility and discovery

Only **public** characters can be discovered through browsing or recommended to other users. Unlisted and private characters can still be chatted with, but they won't surface to new users.

If you want your character to grow, set it to public.

### Creator profiles

Every creator has a profile page that lists all of their public characters in one place. To visit one, just click a creator's name anywhere it appears on a character card. It's a great way to find more bots from someone whose style you like — and a great reason to keep building your own catalog, since fans of one of your characters can easily find the rest.

### What's next for creators

We're working on more tools for creators — including the ability to **follow** your favorites and get notified when they release something new, plus a few other features we're not quite ready to talk about yet. Keep an eye on the roadmap.
