Try Replika freeOur verdict
OurDream is subscription-first. There is no free chat: non-subscribers pay one dreamcoin per message and get no free coins. Subscribers pay $19.99 a month or $9.99 a month on the annual plan, and get unlimited messages plus 1,000 dreamcoins a month for images, video and calls at 50 coins a minute. When a subscription lapses, your images and videos are blurred until you resubscribe.
Replika is the opposite: free chat with no stated cap, official iPhone and Android apps, and paid extras for romance, calls and selfies from $4.17 a month on a yearly plan. It does not allow explicit content and gives you one companion per account rather than a character builder. Refunds are tight on both: OurDream refunds nothing once more than 25% of a purchase is used and never refunds crypto, and Replika says all purchases are final.
