Built for Gay Men
ChatRoger (Roger)
Quick verdict. An AI boyfriend app that knows exactly who it is for: a male-only roster of 17,000+ mostly user-made companions, sorted by tribe, with images, video, voice messages, live audio calls and a custom builder. Prices are public, credit costs are published and credits never expire.
- Best for: gay, bi and queer men who want a roster that assumes them from the first screen; users who want pictures, clips and voice in the same app; Spanish speakers in Latin America (Spanish interface and the cheapest price tier).
- For the entry price: $14.99 a month in the US buys unlimited messages, better memory, image and video generation, voice messages, live audio calls, custom companions and 1,000 credits a month: about 33 images, or 10 videos, or 100 voice messages.
- Watch out for: the ad pixels. Accept marketing cookies and Meta, TikTok, Grindr and other ad platforms can learn that you joined and paid. Decline them at sign-up.

What You Get
Roger's FAQ describes it as "an AI companion app built for gay, bi, and queer men", and the product follows through. Every companion is male. The browse filters are tribes (jock, bear, otter, twink, daddy, wolf, muscle bear, twunk, cub), and the FAQ counts "over 17,000" companions, nearly all created by users. The biggest homepage counters belong to official characters from the @roger account (783k for Brad, 685k for Adrian, 415k for Ryker); most community characters sit in the tens of thousands.
Premium includes unlimited messages, better memory, voice messages, image and video generation, custom companions, live audio calls, 1,000 credits a month, 50% off credit packs and no watermarks. The interface runs in English and Latin American Spanish. There is no App Store or Google Play app; ChatRoger is a web app you can pin to your home screen.
Custom Boyfriends, Calls and Shorts
The builder starts from a text description ("What's he like?") or a preset look such as firefighter, silver fox, bartender, lifeguard, cowboy or bear. Roger generates image and voice options, you pick one of each, and the build takes about five minutes. It costs 100 credits, and the interface warns that the image, voice and description are permanent once created. It also refuses real people: "Roger cannot generate images of real people" and "cannot generate voices of real people" are built-in rejection messages.
In chat, Roger can spot when you're asking for a picture and send one without a command. Memories form on their own; adding, editing or clearing them is a Premium perk, as are live audio calls. No per-minute price for calls appears anywhere public, which points to calls being included with Premium rather than metered like voice messages.
Shorts are the unusual extra: short episodic AI video dramas, nine series and 36 episodes on 29 September. A third-party review dated 21 September reported watching them without spending credits, but the site's price table already holds a 100-credit "Shorts episode" price, so they may not stay free.
Adult Content and the Free Tier
The front door is SFW. Explicit content lives on a separate adult feed ("Want the uncensored feed? Switch to the adult 18+ version"), and where local law requires it, entry goes through Yoti age verification, with the option to "continue without adult content" if you'd rather not. A visit from France was flagged for verification.
Free accounts chat under a daily limit; confirming your email lifts it and adds 50 credits, according to the interface. That is enough to browse the roster and try a few chats; images, video and voice need credits.
Prices and Which Plan to Pick
ChatRoger shows its prices before sign-up. The upgrade page on 29 September 2026 listed Premium at $89.99 a year (shown as "$7.50/month"), and the page data put the monthly plan at $14.99 for a tier-1 region. The site's code also carries a regional price table:
| Region (per the site's code) | Monthly | Annual | 1,000 credits with Premium |
|---|---|---|---|
| Tier 1: US, Canada, UK, Australia, New Zealand, most of Western Europe and the Nordics, Japan, Korea, Singapore | $14.99 | $89.99 | $9.99 |
| Tier 2: Spain, Italy, Portugal, Greece, Israel, the Gulf states, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Macau | $12.99 | $69.99 | $8.99 |
| Tier 3: everywhere else, including Mexico, Brazil and the rest of Latin America | $9.99 | $49.99 | $6.99 |
Tier-1 prices were live on the page. Tiers 2 and 3 come from the JavaScript price table and could not be loaded from our location, so read them as what the code says, not as a quote. The same code records a June 2026 Pride promotion at $11.99 a month in tier 1, so seasonal discounts do happen.
Our pick: the annual plan if you already know you want a gay-first companion app. At $89.99 ($7.50 a month) it costs half of twelve monthly payments ($179.88), the welcome offer adds 3,000 bonus credits (the offer runs until 31 December 2026), and because credits never expire, nothing you don't use is lost. If you'd rather try first, take one month at $14.99: the refund window is only 24 hours, so the first month is your trial.
What a Credit Buys
Credits pay for everything beyond text, and the live page lists the costs: 10 credits per voice message, 30 per image, 100 per video, 100 to create a companion. In dollars at tier-1 prices:
| Credit source | Price | Per image | Per video |
|---|---|---|---|
| Premium monthly grant (1,000 credits) | $14.99 | $0.45 | $1.50 |
| 1,000-credit pack, free account | $19.98 | $0.60 | $2.00 |
| 1,000-credit pack, Premium | $9.99 | $0.30 | $1.00 |
| 25,000-credit pack, Premium | $179.99 | $0.22 | $0.72 |
The monthly grant covers about 33 images, or 10 videos, or 100 voice messages. Credits never expire, whether they come from a pack or the monthly grant, and you keep them after cancelling; the upgrade FAQ and the refund policy both say so. A free account pays exactly double for every pack, so packs are best bought as a Premium add-on.

Before You Pay
- Ad pixels and cookies. The privacy notice (updated 10 July 2026) says what you share "may reveal sensitive personal information, such as your sexual orientation or health", and lists the advertising services on the site: Google Analytics, Meta Pixel, Snapchat Pixel, Triple Whale, TikTok Pixel, Grindr and the Pinterest Tag. If you accept cookies, sign-ups and purchases are also sent to Meta's Conversions API with a hashed email, IP address and user agent, and renewals can be reported as a hashed email plus the transaction value. Chats are not part of that (the FAQ promises conversations are "never shared, made public, or used for advertising"), but the fact that you joined can be. Decline marketing cookies, use a separate email, or both. Named sub-processors are Supabase, PostHog, Google Analytics and Resend, all in the US; data is kept "for as long as we have a business relationship with you".
- The welcome-offer timer. The annual plan carries a "Welcome offer" countdown with 3,000 bonus credits. The timer shows only the hours left within the current day (it read 23:17:34 when loaded), while the code runs the offer until 31 December 2026: 92 days on 29 September. The bonus is real; there is no need to rush.
- The "Save 75%" badge. The annual plan is shown against a struck-through "$29.99" a month, a fixed list price in the code. Against the $14.99 you would actually pay month to month, the annual plan saves 50%.
- Refunds. Within 24 hours, card only, and refused once you've used more than 100 credits of a subscription or any credits from a pack. A ban for breaking the rules forfeits unused credits.
- Billing and cancelling. Visa or Mastercard only, with 3D Secure; charges read "Life AI Technologies". The refund policy (2 April 2026) promises a receipt for every charge and a reminder email before each renewal. You cancel from the Account page under Payment & Billing and keep Premium to the end of the period.
- Community characters. User-made characters mean uneven quality, and a few community taglines on the public homepage push right up against the platform's own rules, which suggests community cards get a light check before going live. The official @roger characters are the safer starting point.
- Who you are paying. Life AI Technologies, LLC. The terms (updated 6 August 2026) place the owner in Delaware and give a San Francisco mailing address, 2261 Market Street, Suite 86911; no team or founders are named. The domain was registered on 16 May 2025. Disputes go to individual AAA arbitration under Delaware law, with a class-action waiver.
- User reviews. On 29 September 2026 chatroger.com had no Trustpilot page and no Reddit threads turned up. For a product about 16 months old that is not unusual, but it leaves the refund policy as the main safety net you can read in advance.

Alternatives
Our AI boyfriend app ranking covers the wider boyfriend audience. ChatRoger is the gay-first option; these general companion apps also have male characters:
| App | Male companions | Worth a look for |
|---|---|---|
| OurDream AI | Dedicated AI boyfriend creator; male and trans characters | Unlimited messages and 1,000 Dreamcoins on Premium ($19.99, or $9.99 a month yearly); voice calls at 50 coins a minute |
| Xotic AI | Creator covers female, male and trans, realistic and anime | Voice calls with any companion and video calls with animated avatars, on Ultimate or Elite |
| Candy AI | Female or male companions, realistic or anime | A low yearly price: €3.99 a month; voice calls (beta) paid in tokens |
| Kupid AI | Separate AI boyfriend section | Weekly photo, video and voice allowances; no refunds |
For a gay man, ChatRoger's edge is that you never filter out the rest of the site: the tribes, presets and taglines assume you. If you were weighing FlirtCam for its cam, only two of its 58 male characters have one.
Final Verdict: 7.7/10
A boyfriend app aimed squarely at gay men, with a full feature set and fair, public prices.
ChatRoger gets the hard part right. It knows who it is for, and everything from the filters to the preset looks to the copy reflects that. Premium covers unlimited chat, images, video, voice messages, live audio calls and a custom builder, with 1,000 credits a month that never expire, for $14.99 a month in the US or $7.50 a month on the annual plan, and less in cheaper regions per its code. The points to weigh are in Before You Pay: ad pixels if you accept marketing cookies, a countdown and a discount badge that overstate the urgency, a 24-hour refund window and no public user reviews yet.
Use Roger if you want a boyfriend app that assumes you're gay from the first screen, you'll use the monthly credits, and you're comfortable declining marketing cookies at sign-up.
Look elsewhere if you need a native app, you want a company with a long track record, or ad pixels on a boyfriend app are a dealbreaker even with cookies declined.
Frequently Asked Questions
You can browse and chat for free within a daily message limit; confirming your email lifts the limit and adds 50 credits. Voice messages, images, videos and custom companions cost 10, 30, 100 and 100 credits. Premium ($14.99 a month in the US) adds unlimited messages and 1,000 credits a month.
In the US, $14.99 a month or $89.99 a year ($7.50 a month). The yearly plan saves 50% against twelve monthly payments and, until 31 December 2026, comes with 3,000 bonus credits; since credits never expire, it is the better buy if you will stay a year. Credit packs start at $9.99 for 1,000 credits with Premium and $19.98 without it. The site's code lists cheaper regional prices, down to $9.99 a month and $49.99 a year for most of Latin America.
It is built for gay, bi and queer men: every companion is male and you browse by tribe, from jocks and bears to daddies and otters. Anyone can sign up, but the roster, filters and tone all assume a gay male user.
Credits from packs and from the monthly grant never expire and stay in your balance after you cancel. Refunds must be requested within 24 hours, card purchases only, and are refused once you have used more than 100 credits of a subscription or any credits from a pack.
It is run by Life AI Technologies, LLC, based in Delaware, and charges appear as Life AI Technologies. Its FAQ says chats are never used for advertising, but the site runs ad pixels from Meta, TikTok, Snapchat, Pinterest and Grindr and reports sign-ups and purchases to Meta when you accept cookies. Decline marketing cookies and consider a separate email.
