Millions of community characters with unlimited free text chat
The default starting point: unmatched variety and the most generous free tier in the category.
The self-hosted frontend the power users all run
If you want total control and zero subscription, this is where the advanced users live.
Memory that survives months, across up to ten companions
The memory benchmark. If continuity is your main requirement, this is the one to beat.
The original AI friend, built around emotional connection
Still the strongest product for people who want one companion and a real feeling of continuity.
Six hand-written companions with long-term memory, free to try without an account
A deliberately hand-authored cast of six rather than a community character library — you trade variety for characters that keep one consistent voice.
ByteDance’s no-code bot builder
Build and ship custom AI chatbots to 8+ channels with plugins and workflows — a create-your-own toolkit, not a fixed companion.
