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

Candy AI vs Kupid AI

I've spent a full week with both Candy AI and Kupid 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.

Kupid AI

A virtual girlfriend platform that enables conversations with customizable AI characters through text and voice interactions. It features personalized characters, roleplay options, and both image and video generation capabilities.

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.

Kupid AI

While Kupid AI claims to offer hundreds of characters, a closer look shows that many are minor variations—often reusing the same base models with different hairstyles or outfits.

They don’t hesitate to duplicate characters either, sometimes showing the same girl multiple times without even bothering to change her name.

The diversity basics are covered: you'll find characters of different ethnicities, along with 30+ anime-style options and fantasy types like witches and demons.

Most girls are young adults (18–30), and while there are a few "mature" characters, they often don't look their stated age.

Character filtering is basic but functional— Instead of a search bar, you get preset filters for physical traits (curvy, slim), hair color (blonde, brunette), and character types.

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.

Kupid AI

Kupid AI lets you create a companion exactly how you want—with full customization.

The physical customization covers everything that matters. You choose:

• Figure and proportions: body shape, bust and butt size, and height
• Ethnicity (5 options)
• Facial features: hair color and style, as well as eye and lip color
• Even intimate details: pregnancy or pubic hair

The customization system also lets you choose your character’s clothing—from casual wear to formal attire, complete with all the expected accessories.

What makes this customization unique is its personality system. Instead of picking random traits, you choose between clear opposites: Warm or Cold, Dominant or Submissive, and so on.

You also have access to advanced (optional) settings, where you can define details such as:

• Backstory: royal, nomad, slave
• Occupation: doctor, nurse, teacher, artist
• Hobbies: reading, painting, baking, fishing
• Dreams: fame, fortune, family, peace
• Relationship status with you: lover, stranger, enemy

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.

Kupid AI

You can pick different chat styles (like Whisper, Wordsmith, or Spicy) and watch your relationship grow through a Love Meter that unlocks new content as you chat or send gifts.

First impressions count, and Kupid AI started strong — Instead of boring text messages, my girlfriend introduced herself through video.

But the good first impression faded fast: On desktop, the chat layout is broken—messages are narrow, stretched, and hard to read.

The initial charm wore off even more once the conversation started: My girlfriend dove into deep talks about a "shared past" and planned camping trips — though we’d just met.

During our chats, my girlfriend was supportive and kind—offering stress relief tips and warm, comforting responses.

But my girl jumped straight into forced intimacy—it felt like speed dating on steroids, with over-the-top flattery and talk of coffee dates minutes after meeting.

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.

Kupid AI

Let me cut straight to the chase: Kupid AI's NSFW chat feature isn't ready for prime time.

My girlfriend started flirty conversations and discussed intimate topics, but couldn't keep her story straight.

One minute, my girlfriend shared steamy experiences; the next, she claimed she was completely innocent and hadn’t done anything like that.

Want to spice things up with roleplay? Don't hold your breath. My girl either flat-out refused to play along or got oddly hung up on irrelevant details.

Like demanded fair treatment in a landlord roleplay instead of staying in character.

And when she participated? My girlfriend ended up playing the entire scene alone, leaving me as just a spectator.

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.

Kupid AI

Kupid AI offers two ways to create images:

1. Quick generation in chat: Generate images on the spot using prompts.

• You can generate images using a free text prompt,
• Or you can use Kupid AI's suggested prompts for image creation.

But here’s the catch: When you use the suggested prompts for image creation, you’re mostly getting pre-made images from a library.

I tested this several times — same prompt, and often got the same image.

2. The dedicated image generator gives you more freedom to customize:

• Choose your character
• Pick their action and outfit
• Adjust settings like body type, camera angle, and scene

And the images? Despite using the same girl, the results vary wildly—she often looks different, and the overall quality is just average.

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.

Kupid AI

Kupid AI's video generation offers both:

• Text-to-video
• And image-to-video options

Both work almost identically, except that with text-to-video, you choose a character, while with image-to-video, you select an image of a character.

But here’s the truth: text-to-video often fails due to errors, while image-to-video works—though even then, videos rarely follow the prompt.

The quality is mediocre, with visible flaws and unnatural movements, though they mostly resemble the character in the image.

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.

Kupid AI

Finally, something glitch-free—but don’t expect top quality: my girl’s voice sounds clear yet robotic, lacking the emotional depth of a true companion.

Want to flirt? Share an intimate moment? It doesn’t matter — she responds in the same flat tone, no matter what you're talking about.

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."

Kupid AI

Your private chats aren't encrypted - at least Kupid AI never mentions it.

They store everything: your personal details, conversations, and usage data. And they keep it all for 6 years after you delete your account.

On your bank statement, the charge appears as “Kupid” — not exactly subtle.
