Poe is not a companion app. It is Quora's multi-model aggregator: one account and one points wallet that buy text, image, video and audio models from OpenAI, Anthropic, Google and others, plus a directory of user-made bots. Basic is $4.99 a month and Plus is $19.99, both confirmed on Apple's listing. Its terms set the minimum age at 13 and warn in the same document that bots may produce content unsuitable for minors.

The Best AI Angels Alternatives in 2026
AI Angels charges 50 credits for every photo. Five alternatives, with what each subscription costs and how each one bills for media.
10 alternatives ranked 54 user reviews behind the order
The alternatives, ranked
A character chat and roleplay service where users build and publish the characters. The free tier carries unlimited messages and unlimited character creation, image generation runs across anime and realistic models, and explicit content stays off until you confirm you are over 18. Fees are non-refundable once you have logged in.
Memory-first companion with the strongest voice and video calls in the ranking. Add-ons stack on the base tier, so the full set runs $98.97 a month on the web.
One paid tier at $15.99 a month covers chat, voice, video and a daily image allowance, with credits metering only extras. Weakest image generation of the top three.
A catalogue of user-created Characters on web, iOS and Android, run by Character Technologies, Inc. of Menlo Park. c.ai+ costs $9.99 a month or $94.99 a year, and the 20% saving its own page advertises is arithmetically correct. Open-ended chat for under 18s was removed on 24 November 2025.
A web-only NSFW companion platform with chat, images, short video and voice, and a catalogue of about 1,000 characters. Its operator is named and checkable at the Romanian tax authority. There is no pricing page at all: the only prices it publishes are a list inside the terms, and the permanent "-75% OFF" badge in its nav is not supported by any of them.
Joi AI is the rebranded EVA AI, run from Cyprus by NOVI LIMITED. Premium is $13.99 a month or $47.99 a year, and its Terms charge 4 neurons to read a romantic message and up to 1,900 to view a video.
Luka, Inc. of San Francisco runs the app that defined this category, and its terms name four tiers while publishing the price of none of them. Apple's listing shows subscriptions at $7.99 and $14.99 a month, $49.99 and $69.99 a year, and Replika Platinum at $89.99, and which tier any of them buys is not stated outside the app. Italy's data regulator fined the company five million euro in April 2025, and Luka has challenged it, so the fine is not final.
Romantic chat and roleplay from $12.99 for the first month, renewing at $25.98, with no free trial and a daily message bonus that grows toward 50.
Chat only, with no voice and no image generation, from a Texas company chartered in March 2026. Dusk+ costs $14.99 a month on the web and $16.99 through Google Play, and the free tier's memory fades after seven days.

AI Angels alternatives differ in their companionship features and billing. Some focus on character customization or romantic chat, while others offer multimedia interactions or a social feed. For adults comparing AI companion platforms, subscription terms and separate media charges matter as much as the available characters.
AI Angels offers companion browsing, chat, girlfriend creation, saved conversations, and appearance filters. Its homepage doesn’t establish memory capabilities or included usage allowances, so those details remain unclear.
| Platform | Companionship options | Access | Media billing |
|---|---|---|---|
| Candy AI | Character customization | Browser | Token-based media |
| OurDream AI | Multimedia companionship | Browser and PWA | Coin-based media |
| DreamGF | Romantic chat and customization | Website | Homepage media allowances unspecified |
| Kissable | Companionship; filtered generated images | Ongoing limited free access | Kisses |
| Lovli | Companion interactions through a social feed | Browser | Per-action credit costs unpublished |
Across these AI girlfriend apps, unlimited paid text chat doesn’t mean unlimited media generation. Subscription charges and media costs need separate consideration because a recurring payment alone doesn’t show how many images or other media interactions are included.
Candy AI offers customization with separate media tokens
For adults who want control over a companion’s appearance, personality, voice, and hobbies, Candy AI offers several customization options. HushVerified’s Candy AI review reports browser-based roleplay and image generation, with unlimited text chat on paid plans. It reports the following USD subscription charges:
- Premium costs $13.99 monthly, $26.97 per three months, or $47.88 annually, with 100 tokens/month.
- Premium Plus costs $22.38 monthly, $43.14 per three months, or $76.56 annually, with 230 tokens/month.
Media use draws on those token allowances. The review lists images at 2 - 4 tokens each and voice calls at 3 tokens/minute. Video also consumes tokens. Included tokens expire at the billing cycle’s end, so the allowance’s usefulness depends on which media features are used and when.
Free access reportedly includes five messages total, one custom character, and one image. That leaves limited room to assess whether a character’s responses match the intended personality before subscribing.
User feedback summarized in the review mentions prompt mismatches and repetitive conversations. These issues may matter to adults drawn to the customization options. Refunds are restricted to 24 hours and are invalidated after more than 20 tokens are used.
OurDream AI combines multimedia with paid memory options
Text chat, images, voice calls, and generated videos are among the features described in HushVerified’s OurDream AI review, which reports unlimited text chat on paid plans. Its user-feedback summary includes praise for memory and character consistency.
The review reports two subscription tiers, priced in USD:
- Premium costs $19.99/month with 1,000 DreamCoins/month, or $119.88/year with a one-time additional 1,000 coins.
- Deluxe costs $59.99/month with 5,000 coins/month and three times the chat memory.
Media interactions consume coins at the reported rates:
- Each in-chat image costs five coins.
- Calls cost 50 coins/minute.
- A five-second video costs 100 coins.
- A 60-second video costs 1,200 coins.
A single 60-second video therefore exceeds Premium’s monthly coin allowance. The included balance limits longer video generation even with unlimited text chat.
Access is through a browser or PWA, with no official mobile app, and the review reports strict refund exclusions. It also flags a privacy concern. Homepage claims of end-to-end encryption conflict with policy descriptions of encryption at rest and in transit, alongside training on chats.
DreamGF offers romantic chat with introductory pricing
Romantic chat and roleplay are central to DreamGF, which also advertises voice messages and photos requested through chat. Its customization options cover appearance, personality, clothing, and style.
The homepage lists these introductory and renewal charges in USD:
- Monthly billing starts at $12.99 → $25.98/month on renewal.
- Three-month billing starts at $23.97 → $47.94 every three months on renewal.
- Annual billing starts at $44.28 → $88.56/year on renewal.
Subscriptions renew automatically until canceled, and promotions or tests may change the displayed offer. The homepage doesn’t specify subscription allowances or separate media token charges, so the amount of included usage remains unclear.
According to the FAQ, there’s no current free trial. Creating an account allows browsing, which is separate from trial access to the service.
The daily bonus starts at ten messages and increases toward 50 with consecutive claims. Missing a day resets the streak.
Kissable offers ongoing free access and filtered images
Ongoing free access makes Kissable an option for adults content with limited daily messages. Free access continues beyond a trial, though heavier use may require Premium.
Official pricing lists Premium at $14.99/month or $99.99/year, including unlimited messages, 25 daily Kisses, and a 125 monthly bonus. Additional Kisses packs start at $7.99. Kisses unlock photos, voice, video, and other features, but per-action costs aren’t specified, so the allowance doesn’t translate into a fixed number of media interactions.
Image restrictions also affect its suitability for romantic companionship. Under Kissable’s terms, generated images pass through filters and will not depict nudity or sexual acts.
Premium renews automatically until canceled, while trials revert to free access without automatic charges. Official support directs cancellation through account settings. Apple handles iOS refunds separately.
Lovli offers a social feed for companion interactions
A browser-based social feed with 24 companions is the format described in HushVerified’s Lovli review. The platform is in beta and has no native mobile app. The review also flags unpublished per-action credit costs, no named operating company, and no published refund policy at review time.
Official pricing lists three subscription options:
- $9.99 monthly with 2,000 credits.
- $19.99 every three months with 7,000 credits.
- $49.99 every 12 months with 30,000 credits.
Longer plans require upfront payment. The official plans list unlimited messages alongside photos, voice messages, calls, and personalized companions. Free signup includes 100 welcome credits without a card required. Unlimited messaging doesn’t establish unlimited media access, and unpublished per-action costs make it unclear how much the credits cover.
Which platform fits each preference?
Each platform suits a different set of preferences:
- Candy AI may suit adults who prioritize detailed character customization.
- OurDream AI offers varied media and paid memory options.
- DreamGF focuses on romantic chat and roleplay.
- Kissable offers ongoing free access for those who accept filtered images.
- Lovli suits a preference for companion interactions in a social-feed format.
The final choice depends on the intended use, renewal terms, and clarity about media costs. A subscription’s value is difficult to judge when included usage or separate charges are unspecified.
