Santa may like to stick with some traditions, like travelling by sleigh – but he is embracing some new innovations in 2025 now AI has reached North Pole!
This year, for the first time ever, children will be able to talk to Santa Claus himself in a live two-way conversation, thanks to the magic of AI.
Portable North Pole (PNP), the world’s number one Santa app, has combined advanced and safe AI technology with the timeless spirit of Christmas. The new Talk to Santa option will allow children to have an authentic two-way conversation with St Nick, share their wishes, and receive personalised, natural responses in a live, magical experience that feels straight from the North Pole.
Alexandre Bérard, CEO, creators of Portable North Pole, said: “For 18 years, Portable North Pole has been trusted to create Christmas magic with personalised videos and calls for millions of families worldwide. With Talk to Santa, we’re bringing that experience to life like never before - giving more children a chance to speak with Santa himself, in real time.”
The new AI-powered conversation system is built with advanced speech recognition and has been developed with parents, integrating carefully designed responses to ensure that every moment feels authentic, warm, safe and filled with Christmas spirit. Each conversation is built within strict safety parameters, ensuring the content remains appropriate, family-friendly and secure. And with Talk to Santa available at just £14.99 (as part of the Magic Pass or by purchasing credits) it’s a great way to keep the magic alive for believers of all ages, without breaking the bank.
