Try Secrets AI freeOur verdict
DarLink AI is easy to try: free accounts get 5 messages, 3 images a day, 5 audio messages and 1 character, and free users can join public group chats. After that, 18+ content and video need a subscription whose price is not on its public pages (the DarLink AI pricing page tracks what is known), and the site sits behind a bot check. FAMELINK SA in Switzerland runs it, but no refund policy is published.
Secrets AI lays everything out up front: $9.17 a month on the yearly Premium plan, $19.99 month to month, 20 free messages a day, and a written refund policy (nothing back for the current period, with a 14-day withdrawal right for EU and UK users on new subscriptions). It adds live voice calls and editable Lorebook memory. DarLink AI's daily free images are its main edge over it.
- You want 3 free images every day
- You want to join public group chats for free
- You want a Swiss-registered operator
- You want to know the price before signing up
- You want to call your companion live
- You want written refund and cancel terms
