Pros and cons
Pros
- The companion Learns preferences from chats over time your chats, so replies can follow your stated preferences
- Voice, roleplay and Telegram are all listed under voice, telegram and roleplay
- Image and video generation are both included, so media stays in the same app
- Chats are Chats not used for training unless anonymized, which is a clearer position than many companions give
Cons
- Images, voice and gifts all draw on the same balance, so Lulu coins for images, video, voice, gifts spending sits outside a simple monthly plan
- Personas are limited to female, so anyone after male or anime companions looks elsewhere
- Support runs on email, so live help is not part of the package
- Commercial use is no, so nothing here suits a content business
Who it suits
- Adults who keep most of the conversation in text and treat media as an occasional extra
- People who already use Telegram and want the companion in the same place as their other chats
- Readers who want a clear training position and check Chats not used for training unless anonymized before sharing anything personal
Who should look elsewhere
- Anyone who wants a large free allowance, because Dippy AI offers Unlimited free messages; ad-supported free tier
- Readers after male or anime personas, which yoummee covers more directly than this female lineup
- People who need business use, since commercial use is no here
Pricing and free tier
Text chat is where the free offer sits. Free chat; images/voice need Lulu or subscription, so you can open a conversation and get a feel for the tone before spending anything. The important detail for anyone budgeting is that media is not included in that free chat. Images and voice sit behind either a coin top-up or a subscription, and the coins have a name: Lulu coins for images, video, voice, gifts. That means the same balance covers several kinds of use, so it is worth deciding up front which one you will use most, because that is where the balance drains fastest. Compared with the wider category, a median monthly price of €13.15 sits close to the middle of what companions charge, with most plans running from €8.77 to €21.70. The spread is wide, from €0 at the low end to €973.43 at the high end, so the paid tier you pick matters more than the headline number.
Memory, voice and media
Memory here is behavioural rather than a profile page you fill in. Learns preferences from chats over time, so the companion picks up cues from how you talk and carries them into later exchanges. That is a quiet advantage over apps where you restart from a blank context each time, though the detail is worth checking yourself after a few chats. Media coverage is broad for a companion app. Voice is available, image generation is available, and video generation is available, which means a single conversation can move from text to a voice call to pictures and short clips without leaving the app. The trade-off is that voice and video draw on the same coin balance as images, so heavy use of them costs more than a text-only habit would. Across the category, voice is offered by a large share of companions, at 96.3%, while Telegram support is much rarer at 11.7%, so the messaging option is the more unusual part of this setup.
How it works
You pick a companion and start talking. The companion Learns preferences from chats over time across sessions, so preferences carry from one chat to the next rather than resetting. Voice is there when you want to talk instead of type, image generation and video generation are part of the same flow, and the service runs on web, ios and android, so the same account works in a browser, on either phone store, or inside Telegram. That last option is the practical difference: a Telegram companion travels with the messaging app you already have open, which is convenient if you do not want a separate habit. Both free and premium models are offered, which usually means a basic chat path at no cost and a paid layer for images, voice and video. Roleplay is listed among the features, so the format is a scenario rather than a plain question and answer. On the other hand, a Telegram route is uncommon in this category, at 11.7%, and support is limited to email.
Who runs it
The service is operated by Hayati Labs Limited, registered in Hong Kong. The age position is set out clearly: 18+ self-declared age on signup, and the content policy is 18+ only; explicit content allowed for adults. There is no regulator or licence attached to this brand, which is normal for the category but worth holding in mind if you want a formal remedy. On data, the stated position is Chats not used for training unless anonymized, so conversations are not fed into model training unless they have been anonymized first. That is a stronger default than a blanket training clause, and it is one of the clearer privacy statements in this group. If something goes wrong, the route is email, so the resolution path runs through email rather than a live chat window.
How Hayati AI compares
Frequently asked questions
How much does Hayati AI cost to start using?+
Chat itself is free. Free chat; images/voice need Lulu or subscription means you can hold a text conversation before deciding to pay anything, so the first session costs nothing. Images and voice need either coins or a subscription, so a purely text-based habit can stay at no spend.
What is the coin system and what does it cover?+
The in-app currency is called Lulu, and Lulu coins for images, video, voice, gifts describes what it buys. Because images, video, voice and gifts all draw on the same balance, mixing them means the same pool funds several things. Keeping to one or two features makes the spending easier to follow.
Is Hayati AI allowed for adult content?+
Yes, within its terms. 18+ only; explicit content allowed for adults sets out the position, and 18+ self-declared age on signup describes what happens at signup. It is an adults-only service, so anyone below the declared age is outside the intended audience.
Does it remember me between conversations?+
Yes, it builds up context from your chats. Learns preferences from chats over time describes preferences being picked up over time, so topics you raise repeatedly tend to come back up later. That makes long-running relationships work better, though it also means the app holds more detail about you.
What happens to my chat data?+
The stated policy is protective of the user. Chats not used for training unless anonymized sets out that chats are not used for training unless anonymized, which is a clearer default than a blanket training clause. If privacy is the deciding factor, this is the line to read in the terms.
Which platforms can I use it on?+
It runs on web, ios and android, so you can use the browser, either phone app store, or Telegram. The Telegram route is the most convenient for anyone who keeps the app open all day. It also means the companion can carry into a conversation you are already having.
Which personas are available?+
The persona set is limited. female indicates the companions are female, so the choice is narrower than a platform offering male or anime options. The service also runs in free and premium, covering both a free and a premium path depending on what you want access to.
Who runs the service and how do I get help?+
The operator is Hayati Labs Limited, registered in Hong Kong. There is no regulator or licence attached to the brand, which is typical for this category. For support, the only listed channel is email, so questions go by email rather than a live chat window.
Can I use the output commercially?+
No, commercial use is not permitted. The terms state that answers and images are for personal use only, so anything created here cannot go into client work or published media. Readers building a content business should look at a different product.
