Our verdict on each
Candy.ai
Candy.ai suits adults who want one web companion covering chat, voice, roleplay, image and video generation, with a free chat entry point before any token spend. It sits in a girlfriend app field of 202 brands, and its memory of chat context and persona is what separates it from a short lived chat.
Joi AI
Joi AI suits adults who want a web only companion with unfiltered adult content, image and video output, and a free Basic plan.

Pros and cons
Candy.ai
Pros
- Memory is the strongest point, since Remembers chat context and persona carries a persona forward instead of restarting each time.
- Voice and roleplay both appear in voice and roleplay, and voice is confirmed alongside image generation and video generation.
- A first look needs no plan, since Free chat with limited messages sits there before any spend.
Cons
- Spending is layered, with Token-based extras plus subscription on top of the plan, so media use is where a bill grows.
- Access is web only, so there is no listed mobile app to install.
- The free layer is Free chat with limited messages, which is thinner than Dippy AI at Unlimited free messages; ad-supported free tier.
Joi AI
Pros
- Memory is the standout feature, with Models learn your likes, kinks and fetishes carried into every reply
- Image generation and video generation are both included, and voice is supported
- A Free Basic plan with limited access entry point means cost can be tested before paying
Cons
- Chats used to develop AI; delete via support is a real cost for anyone who values data control
- Free Basic plan with limited access is limited, and Dippy AI offers unlimited free messages against Unlimited free messages; ad-supported free tier
- The credit system of Neurons: 4 per message, up to 120 per photo makes picture and video use cost extra beyond a message

Questions about each
Candy.ai
What is free on Candy.ai?+
Free access is Free chat with limited messages, so the chat can be used before any plan is chosen. Paid access is arranged through free and premium, and heavier media work is bought separately under Token-based extras plus subscription. That makes the free layer a genuine first look rather than a demo, and the subscription decision can wait until you know how the persona suits you.
How much does Candy.ai cost each month?+
Pricing splits into a free tier and premium under free and premium, with token based extras on top under Token-based extras plus subscription, so the total depends on the plan chosen and on media use. For context, the median monthly price across the girlfriend app category is €13.15, which is a market figure rather than a Candy.ai plan price.
Joi AI
How much does Joi AI cost?+
There is a Free Basic plan with limited access to start with, and paid use runs on the credit system in Neurons: 4 per message, up to 120 per photo. Each message draws a set amount of the balance, and picture generation draws more than a message. No fixed subscription figure is set out, so spend depends on how much media work is done.
What is free on Joi AI?+
The free part is Free Basic plan with limited access, which gives a limited version of the service. Media is where the credits matter, since Neurons: 4 per message, up to 120 per photo sets a separate cost for picture work. Readers who want open ended free chatting may find Unlimited free messages; ad-supported free tier or Free forever: 5 AI msgs/day, 1 menu/week, 50 gallery a closer fit.
