I bought a membership on both and tested each for a month. What they offer, their measured numbers and what their users say, next to each other, with my verdict on each at the end.
The scoreboard
CrushOn AI leads on 3 of the 4 figures that decide most choices.
In short
| What they offer | ||
|---|---|---|
| Free tier | ▲Yes | No |
| Entry paid plan | Free | $5.99/mo |
| Adult content | Allowed on paid plans | Allowed on paid plans |
| Features |
|
|
| Best for | Curious users wanting to try AI girlfriend chat for free with zero sign-up via Telegram | Users wanting anime-style NSFW chat and image generation at a budget-friendly price with crypto payment |
| Not for | Anyone wanting image generation, voice, character customization, memory, or a real companion experience | Those seeking realistic character styles, voice interaction, a mobile app, or a free preview before signing up |
| Operator | VirtuAI (the trading name in the imprint and terms, with German VAT number DE419018567 and a contracted youth-protection officer; no legal form, address or founder is published). The bot was launched by a solo developer posting as u/TheGigaDroid in January 2024. | Peekaboo Tech Inc. |
| Pricing notes | Completely free via Telegram bot. No payment required. | Monthly: $5.99, $49.90 depending on tier. Yearly: $58.88, $358.80. Cryptocurrency accepted. |
My take
If you want to try before you pay, VirtuGF lets you: CrushOn AI asks for a card first. A free tier is a sampler, not a plan, but it tells you whether the chat suits you before money moves. CrushOn AI simply does more: anime-style character customization, nsfw chat and nsfw image generation are on its list and not on VirtuGF's. More features is only better if you will use them.

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, CrushOn AI is the busier site: 1,645,538 search visits a month worldwide, more than 2550 times what VirtuGF gets (645). 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: 450,000 people a month type CrushOn AI's name, against 20 for VirtuGF. 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. CrushOn AI's Domain Rating of 85 against 22 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.

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

#14 on the ranking
CrushOn AI is the biggest site I track, and it got there by being a roleplay platform, not a girlfriend app.
