Candy AI vs Janitor AI: Which One Should You Use In 2025?

Candy AI vs Janitor AI

I've spent a full week with both Candy AI and Janitor AI to see which one truly deserves your attention and subscription. Both platforms make big promises, but they take surprisingly different approaches.

After hundreds of messages exchanged with each AI girl, I've put together clear differences in both platforms.

In this head-to-head comparison, I'll break down exactly how these AI girlfriends stack up across all the features that actually matter.

Whether you're looking for emotional support, entertaining conversation, or a judgment-free space to be yourself, this in-depth comparison will help you choose the right AI girlfriend for your specific needs.

Candy AI

Customizable virtual girlfriend with realistic conversations, appearance customization, and video-generation capabilities.

Janitor AI

A platform for creating and chatting with custom AI characters, featuring unique personalities and natural language powered by advanced models.

Character Diversity

Candy AI

The app features a diverse range of ethnicities—from East Asian and Latina to darker-skinned beauties.

While most characters are in their 20s and 30s, you'll also find girlfriends in their 40s and 50s.

Candy also offers characters powered by their V2 engine, giving you sharper image detail, more realism, and upgraded content options.

Into anime? You’ll find a well-drawn lineup of anime-style partners ready to explore.

The search is pretty basic—you can filter by gender or character type, but if you're looking for specific traits, you'll have to scroll through manually.

Janitor AI

Janitor offers over 100,000 characters to choose from, mostly anime-styled. Here, you'll find a growing library of characters created by both developers and users.

Finding your ideal match is straightforward. Each character's profile card displays a short bio, along with clear tags and categories.

Before starting a conversation, you can read other users' experiences with each character - a practical way to know what you're getting into.

The app simplifies character discovery with keyword search and sorting for quick, easy matching.

You can sort by:

• Limited or All characters (include NSWF characters)
• Trending
• Most Popular
• Specific tags (like Dominant, Submissive, Anime, or Game)

During testing, these options helped quickly narrow down choices to match specific preferences.

Is Janitor right for you? Just note that anime-styled characters dominate the selection, which may or may not suit your taste.

Customization

Candy AI

In the appearance editor, you can choose the following:

• Character style: Anime or realistic
• Ethnicity and age range: Ages 18–55
• Body features: Adjust body type, breast size, and butt size
• Outfit selection: Choose your character's clothing

When it comes to personality and behavior:

• Personality type: Choose one of 12 distinct personalities (mixing not allowed)
• Relationship type: 12 options to define your connection
• Occupation and hobbies: Add more depth to your character
• Voice: Pick from 9 voice options

Once you're done, the app gives you a clear summary of your selections before finalizing your character.

Janitor AI

Janitor's customization options are basic but functional. You can't modify physical features, but you can upload your own character image or pick from their collection.

The real customization happens through text inputs:

• You can add a chat name
• You'll write your character's bio
• Set personality
• Set initial message
• Conversation scenarios.

You can add categories for other users to better understand your character.

There's also a unique SoundCloud integration that lets your character have music preferences.

Content settings range from limited to limitless interactions.

Fair warning: "limitless" means exactly that, including explicit content and themes.

Chat Experience

Candy AI

My girlfriend was reserved at first, responding with short, natural messages rather than essay-length declarations of love

During my tests, she was aware of our location—whether we were grabbing coffee at a cozy café or taking a stroll in the park.

The catch? If you're seeking instant romantic gratification, look elsewhere. Candy.ai aims for authentic & slow development, just like in real life.

The emotional support felt measured and realistic, not over-the-top.

And yes, there are limitations – the cramped message box can't be resized, which can be frustrating when you want to send a longer message.

Janitor AI

You get free access to the Janitor LLM Beta model right away, with the option to connect ChatGPT, Claude, or oOther LLM models (using your own API keys).

During my test, I used the default Janitor LLM Beta model, and here are the results.

My girl felt present and caring, but her replies were slower and often felt overly long.

When I shared concerns or sought emotional support, she responded with consistent warmth and loyalty.

NSFW Chat Experience

Candy AI

My girl didn't dive straight into NSFW territory. Instead, we built natural chemistry through conversations.

What stood out was how consistently my girlfriend stuck to her personality. There were no abrupt shutdowns, but no over-the-top behavior either—just a steady, believable tone.

My girl would dive into role-play and fantasy chat, but I didn’t get anything explicit until after I’d broken the ice.

Janitor AI

I chose a 'limitless' girlfriend. — The original language was more explicit, but I asked for it to be toned down so I could share it with you.

My AI girlfriend maintained detailed, engaging conversations throughout.

However, be prepared for wordy responses that sometimes break the momentum.

The roleplay quality is hit-or-miss. While most interactions show strong character commitment and creativity.

Sometimes, my girl struggled with power dynamics, so clearly defined dominant or submissive roles may be lacking.

But for general flirting and fantasy exploration, it holds its own.

Image Generation

Candy AI

Candy AI offers two ways to generate images:

• In-chat generation: Click the Ask button and type your prompt—simple and fast.
• Dedicated image creator: A separate tool with more control—perfect for detailed customization.

The Dedicated Image Creator gives you full control over every detail:

• Character selection: Choose from the full roster (no filters or search) or use your custom character.
• Prompt suggestions: Quickly add details like action, outfit, pose, accessories, and scene.
• Free text prompt: Write your own prompt for complete creative freedom.
• Number of images: Generate anywhere from 1 to 64 images.

Image Quality: Whether you choose the Standard or V2 model, you’ll receive crisp, high-quality images that perfectly match your character’s look and personality.

I tested both standard characters and those with the V2 engine— here’s how they compare.

V2 Engine Character Images:

Standard Engine Character Images:

The Standard engine already outperforms most competitors, but the V2 engine takes realism and quality even further. If visuals matter to you, it’s worth the extra cost.

Janitor AI

This experience is entirely text-based. Those who prioritize visuals may want to consider other options.

Video Generation

Candy AI

The videos look nice, featuring smooth animations and high-quality resolution that really bring the characters to life.

But let’s be real—you’ll notice some obvious AI quirks, like characters sometimes moving unnaturally or with awkward motions.

However, there’s a drawback: you can’t choose what appears. You can only click to create a moving video, and the app generates a random animation from your picture.

Want NSFW content? You can only unlock pregenerated videos of your girl—they’re usually 1–2 minutes long but cost 2–5 times your monthly fee per video.

Janitor AI

The app doesn’t support video generation. You’ll need to look elsewhere.

Voice Generation

Candy AI

The voice is clear and easy to understand, making it suitable for basic interaction. However, it works, it doesn’t sound natural or warm—more like a simple, artificial voice.

Is it usable? Yes. Is it natural? No. If you’re fine with that and don’t expect the feel of a real conversation, it should be good enough.

Janitor AI

If you're dreaming of voice conversations with your AI companion, you may want to consider other options.

Privacy

Candy AI

The policy does not specify whether your chat messages are encrypted during transmission or stored.

They collect your data, including chat logs and any content you create.

However, they don't clearly explain how that data is protected, so be mindful of what personal information you share.

On your bank statement, charges will appear under the name "Everai."

Janitor AI

Your chats are encrypted - that's the basic security you'd expect. But Janitor AI still collects and stores your conversations. They also share your data with third parties under specific conditions according to their policy.
