Dream Companion vs Secret Desires AI: Which One Is Better In 2025?

Dream Companion vs Secret Desires AI

I've spent a full week with both Dream Companion and Secret Desires 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.

Dream Companion

AI chatbot platform offering customizable virtual girlfriends for storytelling and roleplay, featuring realistic image generation and chat memory.

Secret Desires AI

An AI girlfriend platform that allows users to create customizable companions, generate images and live photos, and engage in fantasy scenarios, including intimate or adult themes.

Character Diversity

Dream Companion

The app offers two distinct character categories: 18 realistic companions and an extensive anime collection. The realistic characters cover major ethnicities and age groups, but with limited options -you'll typically find just one character per ethnicity.

Where things get interesting is the anime section. You'll find everything from traditional characters to fantasy-inspired designs, though be warned - the content is distinctly adult-oriented.

The character library keeps growing, thanks to user-created content. While the anime selection impresses, realistic character options could be more varied.

Secret Desires AI

Secret Desires AI offers hundreds of characters across multiple ethnicities and personality types.

On top of the realistic options, it also offers a wide range of anime styles.

While the majority fall in the 18–30 bracket, there are some mature options as well.

However, body type diversity is limited — most characters are slim or athletic, with few alternatives.

The mobile app shines with precise filtering, letting you narrow searches by age, ethnicity, body type, personality, and relationship preferences.

On the other hand, desktop users get a more basic experience, with filters limited to style (realistic/anime), gender, and preset character tags.

But there’s a catch: filtering can be buggy — some tags return no results, and on desktop, you can’t combine multiple filters like you can on mobile.

At least the search bar helps get around some of the app’s heavier filtering limits.

Customization

Dream Companion

Dream Companion’s customization system is the best I’ve tested so far. After hours of hands-on experimentation, here’s why it stands out.

The interface offers two seamless paths:

• Quick presets for instant results
• Deep customization for total control.

You dictate every detail of appearance (gender, body type, style), personality (traits, humor, quirks), and shared interests (hobbies, passions, pet peeves).

You can select from preset options.

Or use advanced free-text input.

And a preview feature lets you review your creation before finalizing it.

Secret Desires AI

Character creation starts by selecting your character’s gender, style, and age.

Physical Customization:

• Ethnicity: 6 options (e.g., Caucasian, Asian, Indian)
• Appearance: Hairstyle, hair color, eye color
• Physique: Body type, breast size, butt size

Personality Customization:

• Personality: 12 options (e.g., dominant, seductive, unstable)
• Relationship Type: 25 options (e.g., wife, girlfriend, boss)
• Lifestyle: Work (36 options) and hobbies (21 options)
• Kinks: 15 options (e.g., vanilla, feet, edging)

The app also lets you add custom options for every category, so if you don’t find something to your taste, you can create your own.

You can select a voice from 12 options or upload your own audio.

As the final step, you’ll see a summary page to name your girl and bring her to life.

After the summary page, you’ll see a profile with an editable About Me, your chosen traits, and — if you’re lucky — with a character image, though it often fails and can’t be modified.

Chat Experience

Dream Companion

During my testing, the AI maintained consistent personality traits. The conversations feel natural, mixing warmth with playful flirting that never crosses the line into awkward territory.

AI's ability to provide emotional support and engaging banter makes the interactions feel genuine rather than scripted.

One minor drawback: You might notice occasional inconsistencies in how the AI frames your relationship.

You get clear instructions on how to use chat features, and if you don't like a response, you can simply generate a new one. It's not perfect - expect some verbose messages and slight conversational hiccups - but these issues don't significantly impact the overall experience.

Secret Desires AI

When you select a girl to chat with, you can view her profile — including description, personality traits, and even personalize them to your taste.

The app also lets you set the chat engine from 13 different options to make responses more personalized, though this setting is somewhat hidden in your profile menu.

I chose a single mom character who showed genuine emotional range and stayed true to her persona.

My girlfriend moved naturally from playful flirting to handling deeper topics like jealousy with surprising depth.

My girl even referenced past conversations and wove them smoothly into ongoing chats.

But when I needed emotional support, her responses fit the situation perfectly.

As with the other features I tested, this one also comes with some technical hiccups.

Chat formatting is designed for mobile, leaving desktop with long, cramped text that’s harder to read

My girl often tried to send me images, but on the rare occasions I got any, it was usually just the text prompt of what should have been generated.

NSFW Chat Experience

Dream Companion

I've tested 12+ AI companion apps this year, and this one handles sexual topics the best.
During my tests, the roleplay felt genuine, with the AI staying consistently in character and crafting engaging scenarios.

But it's not perfect. I spotted occasional hiccups where the AI confused its anatomy during intimate scenarios. While these moments are rare, they can break immersion. Still, compared to other apps I've tested, these issues are minor and don't significantly impact the overall experience.

Secret Desires AI

My girl was open about past sexual experiences but shared only hints and details rather than full stories.

Think of her as reading a romance novel where she writes the next chapter based on your input.

In my tested roleplays, she stayed fully in character — confident, seductive, and with a solid build-up.

However, there’s a catch: after running multiple scenarios, my girl kept repeating the same lines and asking my name over and over again.

My girlfriend also refused explicit chat, even threatening to end the session.

Instead of explicit conversation, my girl could do surprising things — like solving mathematical problems if I asked.

Image Generation

Dream Companion

Each image comes in high resolution, perfect for both mobile screens and desktop viewing.

The app provides useful tips to guide you seamlessly.

By default, NSFW content is enabled, which is something to keep in mind if you're not after that.

Secret Desires AI

Secret Desires AI offers two ways to generate images:

• In-chat image generation: Quickly create images using free-text prompts.
• Dedicated Image Creator: A separate tool that gives you more control and customization

In-chat image works simply: Just type “send me” in chat, followed by the prompt for the image you want to see.

You can only generate SFW images — NSFW content isn’t allowed here.

Note: Works only with characters you created or those shared by other users.

Dedicated Image Creator lets you stay in control:

• Character selection for image generation
• Multiple engines to choose from: Monet, Picasso, DaVinci
• Number of images to generate: 1–64
• Free-text prompt option for maximum customization
• Default preset options: Action, Body, Clothing, Scene, Extras, with lots of presets.

Quality: At first glance, the images look good and could even pass for real photos, but on closer inspection, they’re pixelated.

Quirk: The images don’t match my girl’s main profile picture, and physical inconsistency is definitely an issue.

Video Generation

Dream Companion

If you want video interactions, you'll have to look elsewhere.

Secret Desires AI

Secret Desires AI turns static photos into videos, using settings almost identical to photo generation, with the added option to set video duration.

The good: These videos look natural. Your AI girlfriend's movements flow smoothly, and her personality stays consistent from photo to video.

Not so good: Video quality isn’t perfect — some pixelation is noticeable, though it’s minor enough not to disrupt the experience.

Voice Generation

Dream Companion

The voice sounds artificial - think Siri, but less polished. When my AI companion spoke, the robotic tone was impossible to ignore.

No matter if we discussed everyday topics or shared emotional moments, her voice remained flat and mechanical.

Secret Desires AI

Yes, the voices sound human enough, but every line feels like it’s being read off a teleprompter on fast-forward.

And if you’re hoping for emotional range? Forget it. Whether you’re flirting or just chatting, the delivery stays as flat as week-old soda

Safety & Privacy

Dream Companion

The chats are encrypted, but the data is stored and used for AI training. Their privacy policy mentions this.

Secret Desires AI

The app claims your chats are "secure and confidential" - but never explains how.

There's no mention of encryption, and they're not clear about who can access your conversations or how long they keep them.

One clear promise: they won't sell your data to advertisers. But that's where the transparency ends.

During my testing, I couldn't find straight answers about data sharing with third parties like analytics providers or hosting services.

On your bank statement, it just shows as ‘Dover First SDA Hope Food Program Food Pantry’ — pretty discreet
