Ongoing tier
No fixed trial end is documented. It does not mean permanent, guaranteed, or “free forever.”
Service access checked 2026-07-19 · 32 qualifying first-party sources
Free AI companions: separate ongoing access from trials and $0 labels.
A free tier, a no-cost entry point, and a trial are different. This guide counts service access only when a current eligible source supports it. A $0 price row or a “Free” app download is not enough.
In the current ledger, 3 programs qualify for the nonconflicting ongoing lane, 6 for free entry, and 3 for the trial lane. Another 6 have material conflicts and are not promoted into those lanes.
Not tested here: checkout, cancellation, allowance enforcement, cross-device entitlement parity, conversation quality, safety outcomes, or service longevity.
The useful distinction
Ask what starts free, what stays limited, and what can charge you.
Free entry
A first-party source supports starting the service without a selected paid charge. Duration or allowance may still be unknown.
Trial
Access is trial-labeled or time-limited. Card and automatic-conversion terms must be checked before signup.
Current nonconflicting service starts: Kindroid, MyLovely, Replika, Anima, Anima AI Boyfriend / iBoy, GPTGirlfriend, Idyll AI, Nomi, and Pi. This list is evidence classification, not a recommendation or quality rank.
Start with your signup boundary
Start with the signup risk that matters to you.
These are reading shortcuts, not product recommendations. They point to the next record to inspect—not whether a companion is good, safe, private, or right for you.
No card
I won’t enter a payment method.
Affirmative no-card record in this ledger: Nomi. Conflict-lane no-card statement: Kupid AI. Its allowance terms disagree, so it is not an affirmative match.
No surprise conversion
I need to avoid a trial that can become paid.
Converts unless canceled: Kindroid (payment method required) and Tolan (payment method unknown). Conversion unknown: Idyll AI (payment method unknown). None of the 3 current trial records is confirmed non-converting.
Documented terms
I need every free-use limit stated.
18 of 18 current records carry an unknown, unspecified, or conflicting term—or no numeric benefit is selected. This ledger does not establish one fully specified free-access option.
Adult context
I want to check adult-context records.
14 program records across 12 products were checked in the adult evidence context. By itself, that label does not establish that adult features exist, are included free, or work on every channel.
Lane 1 · no fixed end documented
Ongoing tiers are not promises of permanent free use.
These records have a named service tier with no fixed trial end in the checked sources. Limits and terms may still change.

Complete product accountability
No program record never becomes “paid-only” by implication.
no qualifying first party evidence
Candy AI
No current eligible first-party source in the registry establishes free service entitlement. Missing entitlement is not treated as paid-only.
no qualifying first party evidence
OurDream
The local free-path descriptions are creator or affiliate material, which cannot establish service entitlement. Missing entitlement is not treated as paid-only.
excluded by policy
Pidor AI
Retired from the eligible catalog because the current product exposes a real-person nudification flow. A separate photo-based ex-boyfriend recreation route also showed no visible subject-consent or rightsholder attestation in the reviewed public frontend.

Direct answers
Questions to ask before starting free access.
Which tracked products document an ongoing free tier?
The current nonconflicting ongoing lane contains Kindroid, MyLovely, and Replika. “Ongoing” means no fixed end was documented on the checked date, not permanent or guaranteed.
Which current starts document no payment method?
Nomi and Kupid AI. Kupid remains in the conflict lane because its free-message limits disagree even though its no-card starting claim is documented.
Does “Free” in an app store mean the AI service is free?
No. It usually describes the download price. This guide requires separate first-party service-entitlement evidence and never creates a program from a store label alone.
Does an ongoing tier mean “free forever”?
No. It means the reviewed source did not document a fixed trial end. Providers may change eligibility, limits, features, or terms.
Why are adult-capable and clean-use companions on one page?
Companion Curator is one mature, non-explicit site. The evidence context stays visible on every record, while explicit imagery and unsupported capability claims remain excluded. This lets readers compare the actual access model without splitting the same decision across domains.
Why are nudifiers and nonconsensual likeness tools absent?
They create a different and materially higher consent-risk product category. Companion Curator excludes real-person nudification, nonconsensual deepfake workflows, and deceptive affiliate routing from reviews, comparisons, tools, and monetization.
What does “not assessed” mean?
It means no standalone service-access decision has been recorded. It never means paid-only, unavailable, safe, private, or low quality.
Method and limitations
Service eligibility is its own evidence object.
Each program binds access type, delivery scope, payment-method requirement, automatic conversion, duration, allowances, and end conditions to their exact current sources. The guide applies a stricter 14-day review window on top of source-kind freshness. Day 12 becomes due soon; after day 14, the record moves to refresh required in draft rendering and blocks publication approval.
We do not infer access from a zero price, missing price, app download, affiliate page, creator review, community post, or another product in the same family. Unknown and contradictory fields remain visible. Products are alphabetized inside lanes; commission, price, and research priority do not determine order.
