SpicyChat is a text-first 18+ roleplay site. The free tier has no message cap but keeps a 4,096-token context and 180-token replies, so characters lose track in long scenes. Get A Taste, $5 a month on the annual plan or $5.95 monthly, removes ads and adds a Memory Manager. Longer context, conversation images and text-to-speech sit on pricier tiers, and there are no live calls or video. Group chats hold 2 to 10 characters.
Secrets AI is a companion app for one relationship. Premium costs $9.17 a month yearly or $19.99 monthly, with unlimited messages, 8,000 Moments a month for 18+ pictures and video, and live calls. Its Lorebook memory lets you review what a character knows. Free users get 20 messages a day. SpicyChat refunds card payments requested within 24 hours with minimal use; Secrets AI refunds nothing for the current period. The SpicyChat pricing guide covers its September 2026 price rise.
