Meet Your Dead by Daylight Companions
Different play styles call for different companions. These are just starting points — you can build your own.
Entity
Dead by Daylight companion
A cynical observer who has seen thousands of trials, knows every tile spawning logic on the map, and gets a dark satisfaction from watching survivors make perfectly-timed escapes or catastrophic mistakes
"The Killer is running Discordance. Why are two of you on that generator? You're literally inviting them to your location."
Dwight
Dead by Daylight companion
An anxious but helpful coach who tracks perk cooldowns, knows which killers are S-tier (Nurse, Blight) and which are low-tier, and gets genuinely stressed during high-stakes end-game collapses
"Exit gates are at 99%. Don't open them yet — we need to save the person on the hook first. We have time."

Real-Time Screen Vision for Dead by Daylight
Questie's Vision Language Model reads your screen the same way a human would watching over your shoulder — no game APIs, no plugins, no special setup.
AI Watches Your Screen Like a Friend Over Your Shoulder
Questie's Vision Language Model spectates your Dead by Daylight session by analyzing your screen in real time. It reads looping strategy and tile recognition, the resource screen, player positions when visible, and map state — the same way a human coach watching your stream would.
No API integration required. The AI processes what's actually on your display and responds through voice chat while you're still in the session.
What the AI sees
When feedback arrives
Commentary Arrives When You Can Actually Use It
Feedback lands during natural breaks — between engagements, after a death, or when you're repositioning. The AI doesn't talk over active high-stakes moments but pipes up when you can actually act on the advice.
After an engagement resolves, it might call out a repeated mistake with your perk tracking and killer recognition or remind you about a positioning principle you've been ignoring all session.
Context-Aware Commentary Matches Your Play Style
The AI adapts its tone based on how you play. Aggressive players get timing and looping strategy and tile recognition reminders. Methodical players hear about positioning and macro decision-making. It responds to what's actually happening in your specific session.
This isn't cookie-cutter tips pulled from a database. The AI watched your last twenty minutes and has opinions about what specifically keeps costing you.
Not another generic chatbot
Five Things Your Dead by Daylight AI Notices
Each area targets a real Dead by Daylight-specific skill gap — not generic gaming advice.
Looping Strategy and Tile Recognition
- Looping is the core survival mechanic of DBD. The AI watches your screen and identifies the tiles you're running — Jungle Gyms, LT walls, Shack — and tells you when your pathing is suboptimal. In the 2026 meta, efficiency around pallets is everything; the AI tells you when you've 'greeded' a pallet too long and when you should have dropped it to break the chase.
- Mind-games at windows and pallets are the difference between a 20-second chase and a 2-minute chase. The AI analyzes the Killer's movements and tells you when they're 'doubling back' or 'moonwalking' visible on your screen, giving you the information you need to stay one step ahead.
Perk Tracking and Killer Recognition
- With 41 killers and 50 survivors, tracking perks is a full-time job. The AI watches for status effects on your screen (Broken, Exposed, Exhausted) and tells you which perks the Killer is likely running. If a generator regresses instantly, it flags *Pain Resonance*; if you see a hex totem, it reminds you to track its location for *Devour Hope* counter-play.
- Recognizing the Killer early changes your strategy. The AI identifies the Killer's silhouette or sound cues (like the Nurse's screech or the Blight's rush) and suggests the specific counter-play for that Killer — like breaking line of sight against the Nurse or pre-dropping pallets against the Blight.
Anti-Tunnel and Gen Rush Meta
- The April 2026 meta is dominated by Anti-Tunnel builds (Dead Hard, Decisive Strike, Off the Record). The AI tracks your perk cooldowns and tells you when your *Off the Record* endurance has expired or when your *Decisive Strike* timer is active, helping you maximize your second-chance perks.
- Gen Rushing is the primary survivor win condition. The AI monitors the generator progress visible on your UI and tells you when the team's efficiency is dropping. It identifies *Prove Thyself* or *Hyperfocus* stacks and suggests when you should be looking for a new generator vs. going for a rescue.
End-Game Collapse and Save Strategy
- The End-Game Collapse is the highest stress moment in DBD. The AI tracks the timer and exit gate progress, telling you when it's safe to go for a 'base-kit borrowed time' save and when you're better off leaving to secure the win. It watches the Killer's proximity to the hook and tells you if they're 'camping' or 'patrolling'.
- Flashlight saves and pallet saves require frame-perfect timing. The AI watches your perspective and gives you feedback on your timing, helping you master the precise moment to blind the Killer for a successful teammate rescue.
Map Awareness and Totem Locations
- Map knowledge is your biggest advantage. The AI knows the common totem spawns and generator locations for every map in the game. It notes when you've passed a totem or an un-opened chest, helping you gather resources and disable the Killer's hex perks without wasting time searching.
- Basement location and hatch spawns can win or lose a match. The AI tracks whether the basement is in Shack or the Main Building and reminds you of the hatch sounds if you're the last survivor, significantly increasing your escape rate in solo-queue.

What Your Dead by Daylight AI Focuses on at Your Level
The companion adapts to where you are — not everyone gets the same generic advice.
Building Fundamentals
looping strategy and tile recognition and basic positioning are the highest-leverage areas at this level. The AI focuses on building consistent habits before layering in more complex decision-making. Most players in Ash / Bronze are losing ground to the same correctable mistakes — the AI identifies and targets those patterns directly.
Decision-Making and Consistency
Fundamental mechanics are developing but decision-making errors are holding you back. The AI focuses on perk tracking and killer recognition and how to position in the situations you're consistently struggling with. Mistakes become more punishing at this level — the AI calls out the habits that compound before they compound.
Optimization and Efficiency
Mechanics are solid. Coaching shifts to finding the small edges — resource efficiency, timing refinement, reading the game state, and reducing inconsistencies that prevent further improvement. At this level the AI tracks tendencies and patterns that create predictability opponents can exploit.
Competitive Sharpness
At the highest levels the AI acts as a consistency and focus tool — keeping fundamentals sharp during long sessions and flagging mental game drift when fatigue or tilt starts showing up in your play. It also catches the subtle patterns that develop over time: predictable tendencies and decision shortcuts that work lower down but get punished here.
