Where Candy AI wins
- Yearly price. $47.88 a year against $144 for GirlfriendGPT Premium.
- Photos and video. They are the point of the app, and they show the same companion each time.
- Voice on the base plan. GirlfriendGPT keeps voice for its $35 tier.
- A custom partner. The builder covers looks, personality, voice and the kind of relationship.
Where GirlfriendGPT wins
- Choice. More than 40,000 characters and scenarios, with new ones daily.
- Curation. Ratings push the well-written ones up.
- Story roleplay. Characters come with backstories and hold a long plot.
What each really costs
Both charge twice for media: once for the plan and again through tokens or coins. On either app, a month with a lot of photos or video costs more than the plan price.
If you mostly want text, GirlfriendGPT's $15 covers it. If you want text plus some media, Candy AI's $13.99 includes 100 tokens for it.
