This site compares AI chat and companion apps, several of which allow adult content. You must be 18 or older to continue.
Continuing means you confirm your age and agree to the terms & disclosures and the privacy policy of this site.PolyBuzz, the former Poly.AI, is a free character chat full of romance plots, webtoon-style stories and anime characters. It is adults-only, yet its terms forbid sexual content, and the free version runs on ads. If you want the same kind of story without those limits, these apps are the ones to try.

ReplikaA safe-for-work companionPolyBuzz is run on the web by a Hong Kong company, Singularity Mutual Entertainment Culture Media Limited, while the iPhone app is sold by Cloud Whale Interactive Technology LLC. Its terms of use require users to be 18 or older, but also ban any content that depicts pornography or sexual acts. That contradiction is the most common reason people search for apps like PolyBuzz: the romance builds up, then the bot stops.
The other friction points are commercial. Free chat comes with ads, and the better memory models (“Long Memory”, “Permanent Memory”) sit in paid tiers: $9.90 a month or $99 a year for Basic on the website, and up to $29.90 a month for Ultimate in the iOS app, as checked on October 8, 2026.

Ordered for people leaving PolyBuzz: why each one fits, what it costs and its main downside. Partner apps are marked; it never removes a downside.

+Enormous catalog of user-made characters

+Memory that users consistently praise
−Pricing is hard to see before you sign up
Best for Low monthly price

Best for A safe-for-work companion
If you liked PolyBuzz for its gentle side and want an official mobile app with a single steady companion, Replika fits, but it is not explicit either.
+Native iPhone and Android apps
−No explicit content since 2023
Same questions for every app: who runs it, what it costs in US dollars, what the free plan allows and whether adult content is permitted.

“The Best Character ai Alternative With No Filters?”, by MoeMoe, published January 24, 2025 (3 min 35 s). An independent creator with no link to this site; opinions and scores in the video are the creator’s own. Playing it loads YouTube.
The creator tries the apps people were moving to after Character.AI tightened its rules, starting with Poly AI, the earlier name of PolyBuzz. He liked its characters and replies but backed away after reading user reports about moderation and paywalls, then compared Talkie, Janitor AI and Chai. It is an early-2025 impression, useful for the PolyBuzz section rather than for prices.
Story lovers who switch between many characters should look at community platforms (SpicyChat, GirlfriendGPT): they work like PolyBuzz but without the sexual-content ban. People who mostly talked to one favourite character will get more from a companion app with real memory, such as Nomi or Secrets AI.
PolyBuzz also generates character images on its website. If that matters, check which alternatives include pictures in the subscription and which charge tokens per image; our full list of Character.AI alternatives shows that column for every app. For a direct comparison with the filtered market leader, read PolyBuzz vs Character.AI.
No. Although PolyBuzz is restricted to adults, its terms of use prohibit content depicting pornography or sexual acts. The apps on this page allow explicit roleplay between adults, except Replika.
SpicyChat is the closest free option: unlimited messages, community characters, ads on the free plan. Several companion apps also have limited free tiers.
The website names Singularity Mutual Entertainment Culture Media Limited in Hong Kong as operator; the iOS app is published by Cloud Whale Interactive Technology LLC.
