The Best AI Companion Apps, Ranked in Plain English
We read the pricing pages, the fine print and dozens of hands-on tests so you don't have to. Here are 20 apps, rated out of five.
Desire AI
Desire AI (desireai.app) is a browser-based AI companion chat app for adults. During its open beta you can start chatting with no account, email or card; photos and video appear in chat where approved media exists, without a token wallet. Limits: daily usage caps, memory stored in your browser rather than an account, and paid plans not launched yet.

How we rate
We ask the questions you'd ask a friend who'd tried them all. Does it remember what you said last week? What will a normal month really cost, including tokens? Can you try it properly for free? Are pictures and voice included or extra? How does it handle your data and your money? And what do paying users complain about most? The best apps land around 4.2. None gets everything right.
The Featured partner card at the top is a promotional placement, not a rating. It isn't scored and doesn't change the rankings.
