r/ChaiAlternatives

This is my personal ranking of the ai ive tried as an ex chai user. This is mostly just based off personal experience with little to no explanation. Ive played so many ais, this isnt all the ones ive tried because i only decided to start the list later on, but here;

Great [ones i found myself playing over and over for long periods];
- Perchance (have to manually save chats onto your drive)
- Clank world (i dont even know why we like this one its kind of crap but i play it alot)

Good:
- Emochii
- Tipsy (greedy but by-passable, almost great)
- Chatgpt/Claude (mid level greed, bland but broad)
- Xoul (limited play time for free users)
- Polybuzz (greed 9000)

Ok:
- Waifu dungeon (sus AF website 💀… but okay. løli and īncest warning)
- Janitor ai
- Soulplay
- Chub ai (pretty much must pay, with crypto currency, barely played but seems good)
- Swerve (trash memory, gets nonsensical)
- Zeta ai (meh- but the visual novels are a blast! But the app is going downhill atm)
- Seasoul (started out rlly good… but chats get meh more you play)
- C.ai (pretty greedy, nowhere near the quality it used to be)

Meh:
-Sakura
- Minglotalk
- Kindroid
- Talkie lab (some cool functions)
- Candy
- Backyard ai

Bad:
- Hammer ai
- Dungeon.ai
- Dopple.ai

Sorry if there was one you liked thats lower than youd rate, this is just personal opinion. Hope someone finds this helpful- happy hunting!

I wanted to repost this because I think more people should hop on!

They use gems for chats, but it can be as little as 1 gem per message. You get 50 gems daily, and for new users you can complete a bunch of task to pile them on! You also get a referral code that awards both the new user and the current one gems if you put it in within 48 hours of joining (mine: FXMKK8)! If that’s not enough, become a bot creator, you get 5% back on the gems people spent chatting with bots you’ve created (right now it’s 10% as a creator rewards event!) They’re given in the form of coins that can either be saved up to cash out or converted to more gems. On top of this, Tipsy loves awarding their creators and users. There are always events (like Amino used to have on servers if anyone remembers that), where top creators overall, mod picks for male and female bots, receive rewards, and in the process your bots may have earned you coins!

AI models: several, some more expensive than others but I use the second cheapest one and have great responses! It does get a bit addicting so I run through them super quick. NO ADS! At all! They have a great response time on their discord to any bugs or problems and everyone kinda helps each other out on questions like generation or formatting for creators! (I’ve gotten so much help from other creators there too.)

I also like that it’s NSFW friendly! iOS users will have to use browser to access the unlimited bots due to Apple restrictions, but instead of completely removing the nsfw option, they worked around it really well. The bots are also hot, creators are amazing with details, and they host events for a chance to make more gems. My favorite part being that they’ve made healthy restrictions that don’t ruin the nsfw chatting experience.

My favorite part is how detailed bots can be. They have HTML and beta versions. HTML bot creators are insane btw, idk how they do it. Every time you open one you’re hit with such detailed and creative backstory/context/ design, and it’s so fun to engage with. Again, you can spend from as little as .8 of a gem to 46+ gems per message, so it’s up to you and your wallet or lack there of to decide! Regardless, the bot functions so well on the low tiers for my fellow broke people.

Another thing to add, creators have been very unfortunately been dealing with plagiarism recently, and Tipsy has gone above and beyond to protect original content. They continue to implement enforcement to keep people from stealing work and publishing it on their own page (including other platforms) as public works. As a creator myself, this was the nicest thing to see because people work so hard to create detailed plots and bots. They have also worked on visibility for new creators so people don’t spam post 12 bots and take over the fyp, or popular creators overshadow new bot creations. Honestly, they’ve done a lot more than I expected and I like that people are being heard.

Genuinely this app curbed my addiction to C.ai too. I feel like the gem limits also helped me keep off the app and based on how rough c.ai has also become, this was one of my favorite alternatives. (those TikTok ads weren’t kidding)

There is the option for a subscription service for those who want to spend money, and multiple tiers. Still doing great as a free user. Just if anyone is looking for a place to go, check it out :)

Is chai working in India ? Does everyone have 0 msgs ? Do y'all have any way to get it back ?

Hello! I'm a new moderator here!

This subreddit is fairly new, and I'm glad the top mod has let me become a mod. I have been moderating for a year now; I'd say I'm quite well versed in the world of AI chatbots and companions, especially on the technical side.

While the subreddit is called Chai Alternatives, I believe we can still speak out about our frustrations when it comes to Chai, even if there are already two other subs. But since the purpose is also to help the Chai refugees find alternatives, you're always free to post the platforms you've tried or have settled on, to help other Chai users who are looking for alternatives.

But we're also trying to keep the subreddit from being infested with bots, so we're staying on the lookout. Happy to be here! Let's grow the community together.

I found a really cool alternative, its called clank world. At first i thought its like those ai app thats too focused on nsfw but oh boy! I couldn't be more wrong, it's like prime chai mixed with c.ai

Give it a try and tell me your opinion
