Candy AI vs CrushOn AI — Which One Should You Pay For?

An AI girlfriend with media in the plan against a cheap community character-chat site. Scores, verified prices and who each one suits.

📅 Updated Oct 2026 📄 Prices Checked 20 Oct ⚖️ Head-to-Head

Candy AI and CrushOn AI both sell uncensored AI chat, but they are built differently. Candy AI is a single-companion app: you pick or build a girlfriend (or boyfriend), chat without limits on Premium, and spend a monthly token allowance on pictures, short videos and voice. CrushOn AI is a community character-chat site: thousands of user-made characters, a choice of AI models, and credits that pay for the better models. It is text first; no plan lists image generation.

Every price and feature below comes from each app's own pricing pages, terms and help pages, as checked for our full reviews on 20 October 2026. Scores are our v3 scores. This page is not a hands-on test: there are no chat logs or quality grades, only what each company publishes.

What You Get on Each

Candy AI has three sections (Girls, Anime, Guys) and a step-by-step creator: realistic or anime, female or male, 9 voices, 12 personality types, 43 occupations, 19 relationship types and 24 kink tags. Every Premium plan includes unlimited text chat and 100 tokens a month for images, image-to-video, voice messages, Voice Calls (beta) and live features such as Candy Roulette (5 tokens a minute). Per-action token costs are shown only after sign-up.

CrushOn AI is a library of community characters (107 tags on 20 October) plus your own creations. Chats run on Free, Pro or Ultra models; free models never use credits, the better ones spend several credits per message, and the multipliers only show once you are signed in. Every plan includes voice messages with custom voice slots, and group chat starts on Standard. Pictures come from creator albums, some unlocked with Diamonds, not from a generator. The interface also tells free users they need a plan to talk to NSFW characters.

Edge: Candy AI, for having images, video and voice in the plan. CrushOn AI is the better fit only if all you want is text chat with community characters.

Pricing & Which Plan

  • Free: 5 messages in total, 1 custom character and 1 image

Candy AI prices were shown in euros from France on 20 October 2026; its subscription page showed no dollar prices.

CrushOn AI

  • Free: unlimited free-model chat, 100 credits a month for Pro models, 8K memory
  • Standard: $5.99 a month or $58.88 a year ($4.91 a month), 2,000 credits, 16K memory, group chat
  • Premium: $14.99 a month or $94.88 a year ($7.91 a month), 6,000 credits
  • Luxe / Elite / Imperial: $39.99 / $89.99 / $199.99 a month for more credits and, on Elite and Imperial, 24K memory
  • Chat Package: $39.99 a month for unlimited Pro models (not Ultra), on top of a plan

Our picks: Candy AI's 12-month plan (€47.88) if you want media with your chat; CrushOn's yearly Standard ($58.88) if you only chat on free models and want NSFW characters and 16K memory.

Refunds, Billing & Privacy

  • Candy AI: cancel in settings; refund on request within 24 hours of a card payment if no more than 20 tokens were used; EU and UK residents get a 14-day withdrawal on the first purchase. Card, crypto, Apple Pay and Google Pay; the statement shows "EverAI". The privacy notice says chats may go to third-party LLM providers and be used, de-identified, for training. Its Trustpilot profile was removed for breaching Trustpilot's guidelines.
  • CrushOn AI: cancel under Profile, My Subscription. Fees, credits and Diamonds are non-refundable except for paid content that isn't delivered. Some accounts get an age check, one route being a $0.99 card payment. Chat content may be used to train models. Trustpilot showed 1.8 out of 5 from 22 reviews.

Both creators lean on school-themed labels somewhere (Candy AI's creator lists "School Mate" and "Step Daughter"; CrushOn's own landing page featured a "Classmate" character), and both lose a point for it in our scores.

Who Should Pick Which

If you want… Pick Why

Final Verdict

Candy AI is the better buy (7.7 vs 5.5). It puts images, image-to-video, voice and unlimited text chat in one plan, prices are public before sign-up, cancelling is a button and card payments have a 24-hour refund window. The annual plan at €3.99 a month is the one to take; keep an eye on tokens if you want a lot of media.

Pick CrushOn AI instead if you only want text roleplay with community characters, want to start free, and are fine with credits on the better models and no refunds.
