Pricing notesA free tier now exists, alongside Premium ($9.99/mo), Pro ($19.99/mo), and Ultimate ($34.99/mo) tiers, replacing the flat $10.99/month this review originally tested. Video generation is gated to the Ultimate tier. Browser-based. Accepts cryptocurrency.Named monthly tiers: Get A Taste ~$4.95-$5/mo, True Supporter ~$14/mo, I'm All In ~$24/mo, with roughly 17% off if billed annually.

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.

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

None of these ranks in the tracked positions for "ai girlfriend", so their places on this site come from all-traffic rank, and their visitors arrive by name, by ads or from app stores rather than from the category search. On size, SpicyChat is the busier site: 2,411,388 search visits a month worldwide, more than 85 times what Nectar.ai gets (29,223). 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: 1,000,000 people a month type SpicyChat's name, against 18,100 for Nectar.ai. 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. SpicyChat's Domain Rating of 72 against 55 means far more sites link to it, which is what keeps rankings stable; the weaker link profile is the one more likely to move, up or down, when Google reshuffles. Nectar.ai is the older domain (2017 against 2023), which counts for something in a category where sites close without notice.

“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: 4 of 10 features positive for Nectar.ai and 5 of 10 features positive for SpicyChat. My own month did not always match the crowd: I disagreed with users on 3 points for Nectar.ai and 2 points for SpicyChat, and each disagreement is spelled out on the brand page.

My verdict on each

Nectar.ai logo

Nectar.ai

#40 on the ranking

Nectar is the best character builder in its price band, run by a real company, and after a month with it I would still pay the annual plan.

SpicyChat

#15 on the ranking

SpicyChat is the free, no-tokens roleplay site, and a month with it convinced me that is enough to be second in the category.
