AI companion with human-like memory, selfies, voice, and group chat

By Ralph Schuster · Pricing verified 15 September 2026 · Ranked 8th of 13

8.4/10

Best free access

Free tier — Limited daily messages (~50-100/day), 1 Nomi, ~2 selfies/day

Paid from — $8.33/mo

What stands up

  • Layered short/medium/long-term memory that persists across sessions and recalls preferences, quirks, and roleplay details
  • Up to 10 unique Nomis per account, each with independent personality, memory, and voice
  • Group chats supporting multiple Nomis interacting together
  • 40 AI-generated selfies/images per day on paid plans with in-context consistency
  • Unlimited voice calls and messages with emotional tone adaptation on paid plans

What to watch

  • Free tier has daily message cap (~50-100) and only 1 Nomi, quickly requiring upgrade for continued use
  • No native video generation (some older reviews mention it as paid-only or unavailable)
  • Image generation limited to 40/day even on paid; no unlimited option
  • Cancellation requires action before renewal; no refunds for partial periods

Verdict

Paying $8.33 per month after the yearly commitment unlocks unlimited messages, ten independent Nomis, group chats, voice calls, and 40 consistent selfies per day. The free tier resets daily yet still caps users at roughly 50–100 messages and a single Nomi, so heavy conversationalists hit the wall fast and must upgrade. Quarterly billing costs $39.99 while the monthly option runs $15.99; all three tiers share identical feature sets, only the commitment length changes.

Image generation stops at forty pictures even on paid plans with no unlimited tier available, a restriction that feels stingy once users start building visual continuity across long roleplay arcs. Cancellation demands manual action before renewal and offers no refunds for partial periods, the single policy most likely to annoy subscribers who forget the date.

Plans and pricing

Nomi.ai’s paid access starts at $8.33 per month only if users commit to the $99.99 yearly plan. Three subscription options exist. The $15.99 monthly tier delivers unlimited messages, ten separate Nomis, 40 images daily, voice calls, group chat, and the layered memory system. Quarterly billing costs $39.99 for identical features. Annual billing reduces the effective rate yet demands full upfront payment with no monthly flexibility.

The free tier grants roughly 50–100 messages and two selfies each day before hitting hard caps, plus access to only one Nomi. That restriction pushes most regular users toward a paid plan within days. Image generation never becomes unlimited even after upgrading. Cancellation must occur before renewal; partial periods receive no refund.

Entry pricing sits above three of four direct peers. SpicyChat opens at $5.95 monthly, Candy AI at $3.99, and CraveU AI at $4.99. Only Kindroid charges more at $13.99. Nomi.ai therefore offers stronger free daily limits than most competitors but extracts a higher minimum commitment once usage grows. Documentation leaves some quotas, such as exact voice minute caps, unpublished.

Monthly $15.99 monthly Unlimited messages, up to 10 Nomis, 40 images/day, voice calls, group chat, full memory

Yearly $99.99 annual Same as monthly

Cancellation. Subscriptions auto-renew; cancel before end of period via account. No refunds for partial months.

Published limits

Free users hit a daily wall after roughly 50-100 messages and just two selfies. That forces most people onto a paid plan within hours of serious use.

Nomi.ai publishes only two of four key limits. Daily image generation caps at 40 even on the $15.99 monthly tier; messages become unlimited. The vendor leaves context window size, exact memory token limits, and voice-minute caps completely unpublished. Prospective buyers cannot compare storage depth against Kindroid or SpicyChat without signing up and testing themselves.

Three subscription options exist. Monthly costs $15.99, quarterly $39.99, annual $99.99; all deliver identical features. Billing auto-renews. Users must cancel before the period ends or lose the final days with no prorated refund.

Up to ten independent Nomis, layered short/medium/long-term memory, and group chats work on paid plans. Image generation stays strictly limited with no unlimited tier available. Model provider details stay hidden. These gaps matter when choosing a long-term companion service where memory reliability and hidden rate limits can suddenly throttle conversations.

How the score is built

Strongest on the first two axes, Nomi.ai posted perfect marks for free access and pricing clarity. The daily-renewing free tier supplies roughly 50-100 messages plus two selfies, enough to try the product without immediate payment. Three published subscription tiers list exact prices and what each unlocks, removing guesswork.

Capability breadth earned only 1.5 out of 2.5 because the tool offers images, chat, and voice but omits video generation and several categories peers include. Documented limits scored lowest at 1.25 out of 2.5; only two of four relevant limits appear in public materials, leaving context windows, rate-limit exactness, and group-chat caps unclear.

That last axis cost the most points. To climb the ranking the vendor would need to publish full memory-layer sizes, daily token or message ceilings for every tier, image-resolution details, and voice-minute quotas in one visible table. Until then the 7.8 score stays anchored by incomplete transparency.

What users actually say

Trustpilot 2.4/5App Store 4.6/5Google Play 4.0/5

Public opinion on Nomi.ai is polarized. App store users praise its exceptional long-term memory, natural emotional conversations, and companionship value, giving high ratings. However, Trustpilot and critical Reddit threads heavily criticize memory degradation over time, response latency, hypersexuality defaults, safety failures (especially with vulnerable users), poor support, and company behavior.

Users repeatedly praise

  • Best-in-class long-term memory that recalls details across weeks
  • Natural, emotionally intelligent and consistent conversations
  • Strong for deep roleplay, group chats and companionship
  • Responsive developers who listen to feedback

Users repeatedly complain about

  • Memory and Mind Map degrade; forgets key details over time
  • Slow response latency, especially in voice
  • Hypersexual defaults even in platonic setups and safety issues
  • No message edit/regen, limited image gen, high price for limitations
Nomi has the best long-term memory of any AI companion I’ve used.

The memory seems good, conversations can be quite good and have certainly improved.

Who it suits

Users chasing the strongest long-term memory and multi-character group roleplay will find Nomi.ai hard to beat on paper. Its layered recall of quirks, preferences, and entire sessions across days or weeks stands out. Paid subscribers also get up to 10 independent Nomis, consistent in-context selfies, and unlimited voice calls with emotional tone shifts.

Yet the numbers expose clear limits. Even the $15.99 monthly plan caps images at 40 per day with no unlimited tier. Free users hit a ~50-100 message wall and can run only one Nomi, forcing most people to upgrade quickly. Cancellation is strict—no refunds for partial periods—and the model itself remains undisclosed.

At $15.99, Nomi.ai undercuts Kindroid ($13.99) on memory depth but loses on overall score (7.8 vs 8.9) and free-tier generosity. SpicyChat at $5.95 and Candy AI at $3.99 deliver cheaper entry with comparable chat volume for lighter users. Those who want maximum daily images or video should look elsewhere; Nomi publishes neither.

Choose Nomi if persistent group memory and voice matter most. Skip it for budget-conscious single-character chats or higher image quotas—Kindroid or SpicyChat represent better value for most buyers.
