Replika Alternatives Compared

Updated . Last reviewed: 2026-09-28. Pricing data: Replika, Nomi and Kindroid facts checked on Sep 28, 2026 using their App Store listings, websites and help centers.

By tempteo Editorial

Replika is one of the longest-running AI companion apps. It now calls itself "the AI to do life with", and its App Store listing names memory, proactive check-ins, voice and video calls, image generation and internet access. The apps below differ in how many characters you can pick from, how conversations carry over, media and price.

We make tempteo and list it first, so this isn’t a neutral ranking. What we say about other services comes from their websites and documentation, checked through September 2026. Prices, rules and features may have changed since.

Worth comparing: long-term memory, voice and media, public pricing, what needs an account, and how each provider tells users about product changes. Replika doesn’t publish prices on its website, so the numbers can differ by app store, region and promotion.

Frequently asked questions

Why do people look for Replika alternatives?

It’s worth a look if you want to choose from many characters with public profiles, chat in the browser or on Telegram, and have each character remember what you tell her. Photos, voice and video depend on your plan and credits. If wellness support is what you want, Replika is the clearer choice.

What does tempteo Premium cost?
