Verdict

Secret Desires AI is an 18+ AI companion platform for adults who want to build their own partner from scratch and then chat, trade photos, get voice notes and render short videos with them. It runs on a two-part model: a subscription ($7.99 to $19.99 a month) unlocks unlimited text chat on its own engines, and a Hearts balance pays for the heavier media like images, voice and video.

We tested it on a Max plan account in November 2026. We built a custom partner, chatted on both the free engine and the Max-only engine, asked for in-chat photos and a voice note, generated images and a video in the standalone Generator, and checked every charge in the Hearts history. Three things stood out:

  1. Chat messages cost nothing on the included engines. Our Hearts log showed zero charges for text replies on the free Adore engine and the Max-only Fascination engine. Only media touched the balance.
  2. Media is cheap per item. A photo on the default Monet image engine cost 0.3 Hearts, a 12-second voice note cost 0.4 Hearts, and a 5-second video cost 15 Hearts.
  3. The partner builder goes deep. Six steps cover style, age, 12 ethnicity presets (including Elf, Alien and Catgirl), skin, hair, eyes, body, 12 voice accents, personality, job, relationship, hobbies and a fetish, plus an optional opening line.

If you want a polished all-in-one platform with a bigger ready-made roster and Live Action video, Candy AI (Candy AI review) is still our #1 pick. Choose Secret Desires AI if you mostly want unlimited text roleplay with a partner you designed yourself, with photos and voice notes on demand for pennies each.

Hands-On Test: Inside Secret Desires AI

1. Discovery Grid and Filters

The home page opens on a grid of ready-made partners with a Mature Content switch, gender and style dropdowns (Realistic or Anime), and a row of top-search chips covering common kinks and roles. Each card shows a name, age and a one-line hook. The left rail links to Categories, a social-style Feed, Create Partner, Chats, the Generator, an alpha Creator Studio, My Partners, Gallery and your Hearts history.

2. Building a Partner (6 Steps)

Create Partner starts by asking for Woman, Man or Trans and a Realistic or Anime style. We picked a realistic woman, then set age 25, the Latina preset and a medium skin tone.

The next screens cover hair style (7 presets plus custom), hair color, eye color, body type, breast size and butt size. The last setup step is where the personality lives: a name, a voice accent (we chose Hispanic from 12 options), personality, work, relationship type, hobbies and a fetish. An Advanced Options drawer adds a custom conversation starter, a default image engine and search tags.

Clicking Next generated our partner, Valeria, with a portrait and a short bio in about 20 seconds. Creating her did not cost any Hearts.

3. Live Chat, Engines and In-Chat Photos

Valeria messaged first. Before we typed anything she had already sent a proactive opener about testing a new recipe and needing a taste tester. Our first reply asked what she cooked and what she would never tell her business partners. She answered with a mango-habanero pork dish and a cheeky confession, written as short texts rather than long paragraphs.

The Quality menu lists the chat engines in four tiers:

  • Good (free on every plan): Adore.
  • Better (unlimited with a subscription): Magnetism and Bewitch on Ultra, plus Obsession and Fascination on Max.
  • Best (Hearts per reply): 14 engines from 0.3 Hearts (Cupid, Intoxicate) up to 4 Hearts (DesireXXX, Darling, Rapture).
  • Experimental (beta): Devotion, Velvet, Pulse and Chemistry, priced from 0.3 to 5 Hearts per reply.

We switched to Fascination and asked Valeria to remember that our name is Alex and that we hate cilantro, then asked for a photo of her in the kitchen. She confirmed both facts and dropped a full-length kitchen photo straight into the thread for 0.3 Hearts. The right panel collects every photo under Recent media and adds buttons for a voice call, Generate Images and Edit Partner.

Chat Settings also let you choose Texting or Roleplay reply styles and toggle Time Awareness and Auto Memory. The Send Me menu decides what comes with each reply: let the partner decide (the default), text only, a photo with every reply (0.3 Hearts each) or a voice note with every reply (2 Hearts per minute).

4. Voice Notes and Memory

We set Send Me to voice notes and asked Valeria to tell us our name and what we hate on food. She replied with a 12-second voice note with a matching transcript ("Your name is Alex. You hate cilantro...") and it cost 0.4 Hearts. Within one conversation, recall was perfect.

One caveat: right after the chat, the Memory and Auto-Memory panels still read "Not set". Auto Memory may update in the background later, but we could not confirm long-term memory in a single session. Max advertises 3x chat memory compared with Pro, which should help in longer roleplays.

5. Image and Video Generator

The Generator page uses your partner as the subject, with optional Action and Outfit fields, a prompt box, five image engines (Monet at 0.3 Hearts up to Vermeer at 4 Hearts) and batch sizes from 2 to 64. We asked for Valeria at a rooftop bar at sunset in a red cocktail dress. Two images cost 0.6 Hearts and appeared in her Gallery in seconds.

The Video tab offers clips from 5 to 30 seconds. We rendered one 5-second clip on the Anima engine for 15 Hearts, and it finished in about two minutes. Other listed video engines are Inferno (15 Hearts for 5 seconds, 20 for 8 seconds) and Dream (25 Hearts for 5 seconds). The Hearts history page says processing can take up to 30 minutes and refunds reserved Hearts automatically if a job fails.

Pricing (checked November 2026)

Secret Desires AI sells three subscriptions plus optional Heart packs. Payment is by card (Visa and Discover logos at checkout), and the site promises discreet billing.

PlanMonthlyYearlyHeartsChat extras
Pro$7.99$79.99 ($6.67/mo)100 per monthFree chat engine, chat memory
Ultra$13.99$139.99 ($11.67/mo)200 per monthEnhanced free engine, 2x memory
Max$19.99$199.99 ($16.67/mo)300 per monthAdvanced free engine, 3x memory

Every plan includes unlimited messages, image and video generation, voice and phone calls, the Hearts engines and partner sharing. The plans page labels yearly billing "Save 40%", but at the prices we saw the yearly plans work out to about 17% off the monthly price.

What Hearts buy:

  • Photos: 0.3 (Monet), 1 (daVinci, Raphael) or 4 Hearts (Vermeer, Vermeer-Fast) per image.
  • Voice: 2 Hearts per minute for voice notes or calls.
  • Video: 15 to 25 Hearts for a 5-second clip, rising with length.
  • Premium chat engines: 0.3 to 5 Hearts per reply.

On Max, 300 Hearts covers about 1,000 Monet photos, 150 minutes of voice or around 20 short videos a month. Extra Heart packs run from 50 for $4.99 to 10,000 for $519.99. The FAQ says refunds are case by case and usually not available once Hearts are spent.

What it does well

  • Unlimited text chat on real engines. The free Adore engine works on every plan, and Max adds two stronger unlimited engines, so long roleplays never drain your balance.
  • Very cheap photos. At 0.3 Hearts per Monet image, a Max allowance stretches a long way.
  • Deep custom partners. Appearance, voice accent, job, relationship and kinks are all set before the first message, and creation itself is free.
  • Proactive partners. Valeria started the conversation herself, and the "partner decides" media mode sends photos or voice notes when they fit.
  • Transparent ledger. The Hearts history page lists every charge with the engine name, so you always know what cost what.

Where it falls short

  • Two currencies to track. You pay a subscription and still spend Hearts on media, which takes a few minutes to understand.
  • Video eats Hearts fast. At 15 Hearts per 5-second clip, a Pro plan's 100 Hearts covers only about six short videos.
  • The "Save 40%" yearly badge overstates the discount. At the listed prices the saving was closer to 17%.
  • Long-term memory was not visible yet. The Memory panels stayed empty right after our session, even though in-chat recall worked.
  • No free trial of paid engines. Free accounts only get the basic Adore engine.

Who should skip it

  • You want a big ready-made roster and Live Action video in one flat plan. Try Candy AI (Candy AI review) instead.
  • You want free, unlimited NSFW roleplay without paying anything. Use Janitor AI or Perchance AI.
  • You hate subscriptions. A pay-per-use site like CrushNights bills only for the minutes you use.

FAQ

Is Secret Desires AI free?

You can sign up for free and chat on the Adore engine. Images, voice notes, video and the stronger chat engines need a paid plan and Hearts. Pro starts at $7.99 a month with 100 Hearts.

How much does the Secret Desires AI Max plan cost?

Max costs $19.99 a month or $199.99 a year. It adds 300 Hearts every month, the Advanced free chat engine, 3x chat memory and two Max-only unlimited engines (Obsession and Fascination).

Do chat messages cost Hearts?

Not on the included engines. In our test, replies on Adore and Fascination did not show up in the Hearts history at all. Only the 14 "Best" engines and the beta engines charge per reply, from 0.3 to 5 Hearts.

Can Secret Desires AI send photos, voice notes and videos?

Yes. Photos cost 0.3 to 4 Hearts each depending on the engine, voice notes and calls cost 2 Hearts per minute, and videos cost 15 to 25 Hearts for 5 seconds. Our 5-second Anima clip finished in about two minutes.
