Luvi AI or Candy AI?
Candy AI is one of the largest AI girlfriend apps: a catalog of girls, anime and guys, a character creator, and chat that can become voice calls, images and short videos, on a subscription with tokens on top. Luvi AI is smaller and built around characters with a story, paid by the reply rather than by the month. Here is where each one is stronger, from Candy’s public pages in September 2026.
Where each one is stronger
Candy AI does better
- A subscription that includes unlimited text chat.
- Voice calls and short video generation, which Luvi does not offer.
- A much larger catalog, with an anime style Luvi does not have.
- An interface in about fourteen languages.
Luvi AI does better
- Pay for what you use: a reply is one credit, and automatic top-ups stay off unless you turn them on.
- Characters who text like a person, a few short messages at a time, in the language you write in, and keep a recap of the whole conversation.
- Original portraits with a short loop on every card, in two styles, none of them anime.
- Two free replies with no card, in the browser, nothing to install.

Questions about Luvi AI and Candy AI
Is Luvi AI cheaper than Candy AI?
It depends on how much you talk. Luvi charges per use: $9.99 a month buys 100 replies, and a photo costs 10 credits. Someone who chats a little pays less than a flat subscription; someone who sends hundreds of messages a day may pay more than Candy’s unlimited plan. Both are free to start.
Does Luvi AI have everything Candy AI has?
No. The table above lists what Candy does that Luvi does not, and the other way round. Luvi has no video calls and no mobile app; it runs in the browser.

Not automatically. You can tell a Luvi character what matters about you, or write it into the conversation’s memories, and they will carry it from there.
Who can use Luvi AI?
Adults only. You must be 18 or older, and every character is a consenting fictional adult.
