Summary
Lentari van Lorainne, known as Lentari Pagi or 'Riri', is presented as Indonesia's first AI selebgram and 'the 1st Virtual Idol from Indonesia'.

Her Instagram account began in 2023 and carries endorsements, sports-event promotion, food, fitness, travel and cosplay posts.

Is Lentari van Lorainne AI?
Yes. Lentari van Lorainne (Lentari Pagi) is an AI-generated virtual influencer created by the Jakarta agency Imagine 8, billed as Indonesia's first AI selebgram.
Everyone who speaks about her says she is generated. The Jakarta Post Weekender (June 2025) calls her Indonesia's first AI "selebgram" and says she was built by Imagine 8, a Jakarta creative agency founded in 2023 that makes influencers with generative AI. Its director, Aldo, says the team generates designs with AI and then touches them up by hand. Fortune IDN separately quotes Aldo as the AI influencer creator at Imagine8 Studio, describing Lentari as an AI influencer product. Her Threads bio reads "The 1st Virtual Idol from Indonesia. Developed by Imagine8 Studio", and the Instagram account describes her in the same terms, so she does not pass as a real person.
No human performer is named behind her. The one human element the sources mention is that Imagine 8 can superimpose her onto an unnamed body double for in-person events. That is a compositing technique the agency describes, not a person who voices or fronts her, so it does not make her a hybrid persona.
What is not known: who writes her captions and runs the accounts day to day, and whether any live-action footage is used in her reels beyond the body-double method Aldo describes. The Instagram labels ("AI info") were not recorded in the research, so the verdict rests on the operator's own statements and her self-description, which agree with each other.
