# Building Apps for Omi

> Create apps that extend Omi's capabilities - from custom AI personalities to real-time integrations. Publish to the app store and earn from your creations.

## What Are Omi Apps?

Omi apps are modular extensions that augment the core functionality of the Omi platform. They can modify AI behavior, analyze conversations, and connect with external services.
