Been looking for CAI alternatives since they keep nerfing everything. Tested a few ios apps over the past couple weeks, here’s what I found:
Chai – The OG alternative everyone recommends. It’s okay but the characters feel super generic and conversations get repetitive fast. Free tier is very limited. 5/10
Crushon AI – Decent for spicy stuff but the UI is clunky and it feels like a web wrapper more than a real app. Characters don’t have much depth but it’s still a fun experience. 6/10
Talkie AI – Actually pretty polished app. Good character variety. But the conversations felt shallow and it kept pushing me to buy coins. 6/10
Ruby Chat – Randomly found this one I haven’t heard of before. Characters feel unique and not all the same, plus can send you pics. Roleplay features are solid with custom scenarios. Main downside is smaller character library than CAI but quality > quantity imo. 8.5/10
Ruby Chat is my daily driver now. Anyone else tried these or have other
