All in one review from user
Loremate Reopened with a Bang!
I'm an average user of RP sites. Honestly, my journey has been quite short: I started with c.ai, then found Xoul, and finally landed on Loremate when Xoul went on hiatus last April. LM has been my permanent home ever since.
Now, let's get to the review. I'll try to answer as many questions new users might have as possible.
UI
The UI is clean, streamlined, minimalistic, and well organized. It's hard not to find the button you need.
The front page displays popular bots, bots from creators you follow, creators you might want to follow, and recommended bots. There's also a search bar with a tag system.
On your profile page, you can see your chats, creations, lorebooks, and personas. The sidebar keeps all your recent chats for easy access.

Features
Bots
You get 5,000 characters to flesh out your bot and 4,000 characters for the first message. If you like fine-tuning your bot's behavior and are good at prompting, there's also a field for a custom system prompt.
Chats
You can customize the chat background and response length, and view chat statistics (how many messages have been sent and how many characters are used as additional data).
There's also a Story feature! You can create your own plot and add up to 8 characters to the story. You get 5,000 characters for the story description, 8,000 characters for your world setting, and another 5,000 characters for optional lore. It's a great way to expand your universe. Honestly, it's my favorite feature, I'm mostly playing with setting my characters in different universes with it.
Lorebooks
Loremate includes a lorebook feature with a keyword system. Each lorebook can have 46 entries, and free users can attach up to 2 lorebooks per chat.
The system highlights the detected keywords in your messages, and you can always see which lorebook entries were used to generate the response.
Memory
For long-term RP, there are two different memory systems.
The first is the Memory Box, where you can manually store information that the bot will always remember. It has a 3,000-character limit.
The second is Auto Memory, which summarizes your recent messages whenever you click the button. You can edit these summaries as well. For the best experience, it's recommended to update it every 20–25 messages.

Now we're getting to what really makes the difference—for both the developers and the users: models and subscriptions.
LM offers a wide range of models, most of which are excellent for RP and have large context windows. If you think, that the larger is token count the better is the model... It's not always true. Honestly, not every model with a 1-million-token context is actually good for roleplay.
Free Plan
Loremate's free plan is very generous compared to other platforms, especially considering it's a project developed by just one (now two) developers without the backing of a large corporation.
Free users get 200 messages per day and 3 free regenerations per message (additional regenerations count toward the daily limit).
You might say that's fewer than 300 swipes, but I'd argue it's quality over quantity.
The free tier includes three models, one of which is GLM 4.7, which is a premium model on some other platforms.
One of the other free models is so good that even paid subscribers regularly recommend it. Because of that, regenerating responses isn't usually necessary, and it's actually difficult to hit the 200-message limit. (If you count the free regenerations, that's effectively up to 600 responses per day.)
On top of that, every other week a premium model becomes available as a 24-hour free trial.
You also get 10 free Auto Memory generations. Utilising memory box and auto-memory makes sure that your character won't forget your name after 5 messages😁
Paid Plans
The most popular plan is Mastermind, which costs $11.90/month.
It unlocks all premium models, including Frontier RP-tuned GLM 5.2, as well as popular models like DeepSeek, Kimi, Qwen, Mimo, and Gemma.
You also get unlimited messages, better memory, faster response speeds, and 20 Auto Memory regenerations.
All premium models run in their non-thinking mode, but many users say that some of them (Halo🤭) is better without thinking on, more creative that way.
The highest tier is Omnipotent, which costs $19.90/month.
It enables reasoning on all premium models, offers the largest memory capacity, the fastest speeds, and 35 Auto Memory generations.

Additional Information
Overall, the free tier doesn't restrict you very much, while the paid plans unlock everything at a reasonable price.
A few things worth mentioning:
• It's an adults-only platform. Minors are not allowed.
• It's NSFW-friendly.
• Moderators and developers cannot read your chats.
• There are no ads, and there are no plans to add ads in the future.
I've had the best experience with LM out of all the RP platforms I've tried.
The developers genuinely listen to user feedback, the community is friendly, and the roleplay quality is fantastic.
For creators, there's plenty of room to write detailed bots. For users, there are multiple models, each with its own "personality" or style.
They didn't pay me, if you think it's paid post)) And I'm not a bot, either. I actually just like it very much and decided to share my experience with people, who might looking for a platform that focuses specifically on text roleplay instead of splitting its attention between image generation, voice generation, and everything else. Characters actually can do slow burn plots or platonic ones - not just instantly soulmate-crazy with user.
