Available on iOS and Android. | Tiered plans starting at Bronze $9.99/mo, up through Silver $19.99/mo, Gold $49.99/mo, and Diamond $99.99/mo, each raising the messages, images, video, and voice credit allowances. Roughly 10% off with a 3-month commitment. Token system for additional features. Cryptocurrency accepted. |
My take
Both give you a free tier, so you can try the chat on each before paying; expect message caps and few or no images until you upgrade. DreamGF simply does more: custom character creation, nsfw chat and image generation and voice messages are on its list and not on Dippy's. More features is only better if you will use them. On adult content they are not the same product: DreamGF allows it on paid plans, Dippy keeps a filter. Decide that first and half the comparison decides itself.

The better value in each row is marked in green. Search visits and brand searches are DataForSEO estimates; Tranco and Chrome UX tiers are ranks, not visit counts.
My take
Start with the row this site ranks on. When someone types "ai girlfriend" into Google in the US, DreamGF is there at #53; Dippy does not appear in the tracked positions at all. That is why DreamGF sits higher here even if it is the smaller site: it is the one the category sends newcomers to. On size, Dippy is the busier site: 38,274 search visits a month worldwide, about 8 times what DreamGF gets (4,657). These are estimates of visits from Google only, so a site with apps or ads can be bigger than this shows. Brand searches are the loyalty line: 3,600 people a month type Dippy's name, against 2,900 for DreamGF. A name people type on purpose is a site they come back to; a site with lots of visits and few brand searches is living on rankings it could lose. Tranco tells a slightly different story: it counts every visit, not only search, and there DreamGF comes out ahead (#287,472 against #451,985). When search and all-traffic disagree, the site that wins on Tranco has an audience that does not come through Google. DreamGF is the older domain (2023 against 2024), which counts for something in a category where sites close without notice. In plain terms: Dippy is bigger, DreamGF is the one the category search points to.

“Users” is the balance of the YouTube reviews, Reddit threads and articles read for each brand page; “my test” is whether my own month on the site agreed with them.
My take
Users rate them about the same: 2 of 10 features positive for Dippy and 2 of 10 features positive for DreamGF. Where they split, Dippy gets the better word on free tier. DreamGF gets it on image generation. My own month did not always match the crowd: I disagreed with users on 4 points for Dippy and 1 point for DreamGF, and each disagreement is spelled out on the brand page.
