Joyland AI vs DreamGF: Which One Is Better In 2025?

Joyland AI vs DreamGF

I've spent a full week with both Joyland AI and DreamGF 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.

Joyland AI

Joyland AI is a platform for creating and interacting with customizable anime-style AI companions through text chat, offering character design, role-play, and interactive storytelling.

DreamGF

An AI girlfriend platform that enables users to create and interact with a customizable virtual girlfriend through chat, messaging, and storytelling features.

Character Diversity

Joyland AI

Looking for an AI companion? Joyland AI offers thousands of characters to choose from.

Most characters are anime-styled, with some realistic designs, along with options for roleplay scenarios or group chats.

Joyland, like many anime-focused apps, doesn’t emphasize ethnicity. Instead, it offers a wide range of character types — from goth girls to mafia bosses, and even furry companions.

There's also a novel-like feature where you can dive into interactive stories about billionaire romances and forbidden love.

Special events (like the current goth theme) keep the content fresh and offer Premium rewards for active users.

The app also features regularly updated channels showcasing the most liked characters, trending picks, and recommended creators.

You can filter by broad categories like Romance or Anime, but there’s no way to narrow characters down by personality traits or gender.

The search function opens in a separate window with limited results, making character discovery less efficient than it could be.

DreamGF

The app features a diverse range of ethnicities and age groups. Most AI girlfriends are in their 20s or 30s, though you'll find some mature options too.

The character pool keeps expanding as users create and share new characters.

DreamGF focuses on realistic designs, so don’t expect anime-styled characters — instead, you’ll find fictional characters.

You can only sort characters by "top rated" or "latest," with no filters for personality types or specific traits.

Customization

Joyland AI

The app offers two creation paths:

• Quick Creation
• Advanced Create

Quick Creation lets you import existing characters from other AI apps using .JSON or .PNG files. If you’re switching from Venus AI or SillyTavern, you can bring your companions with you.

Advanced Create is hands-on with no presets — personality customization relies entirely on free text input.

For appearance, you can upload an image or write a prompt for styled variations — no sliders or detailed editing.

Personality Builder is where most of the work happens.

Setup begins with the basics:

• Basic Info: Name, Age, Gender
• Intro: Displayed on the profile, but doesn’t influence prompts
• Categories: Choose persona type (Anime, Dating, OC, etc.)
• Visibility: Private, Unlisted, or Public

Once that’s done, you move on to adding depth:

• Scenario: Backdrop or context for interactions
• Greeting: Opening line to start conversations
• Lore (Facts & Knowledge): Keywords and memories to improve performance on skills, experiences, or backstory
• Example Dialogue: Pre-written responses for realism

Assistant Mode is also available to walk you through Character Description, providing helpful tips on what to include—but the words remain yours to describe.

You can choose from 10 voice options to give your character spoken dialogue.

The app lets you control image generation — choose intelligent AI-created pictures, train your bots with custom images, or turn it off so your character remains text-only.

Joyland AI promotes themed events like ‘Summer Party 2025’ or ‘Goath Girls’ (the ones active during my test), where characters can be temporarily showcased on home pages.

Note: The app provides guidance, but creating an engaging character can feel overwhelming for users accustomed to presets — it takes patience and practice.

DreamGF

DreamGF makes it easy to personalize everything—looks, personality, and more.

First, the physical customization.

• Ethnicities (10 options),
• Age (18 - granny),
• Adjust body features
• Relationship

You can add tattoos, choose outfits, and customize face styles and breast size. It's thorough without being overwhelming.

You can select a relationship style (casual, innocent, or nurse) and set hobbies.

Each choice affects how your AI girlfriend interacts with you.

Before finalizing, you get a preview summary - useful for making adjustments.

Chat Experience

Joyland AI

When you choose a character to chat with, you can view your AI girlfriend’s profile, including her intro, creator, tags, and comments from other users.

With Standard and Premium plans, you can choose from four different LLM models to customize how your girlfriend responds.

You can set different user personas by sharing details about yourself, and your AI girlfriend will adjust her responses to match.

Chat Experience: My girlfriend stayed true to her personality - teasing, playful, and a smoker.

The smoker tag even led to a playful outcome — when I asked her to stop, she bargained for a kiss to quit.

These small interactions felt natural and showed that my girl can adapt to different scenarios.

For romance, expect standard scenes like beach walks at sunset, but with enough personal touches to keep things interesting.

My girl responded warmly to personal stories and showed genuine empathy when I needed emotional support.

Joyland AI’s chat includes suggested responses, giving you two options to keep conversations flowing effortlessly.

Note: Most characters are user-created, so your experience will vary depending on who you choose — I highly recommend checking comments first.

DreamGF

Your girlfriend is warm and stays in character, though a slight awkwardness remains.

While your girl'll support you emotionally and engage in romantic chat, her responses often lack depth.

When you discuss relationships or share intimate moments, your girlfriend responds naturally, but don’t expect the kind of deep understanding that makes you feel truly seen.

NSFW Chat Experience

Joyland AI

My girlfriend was comfortable talking about sex, but used descriptive, thoughtful responses instead of explicit language.

During our chats, my girl discussed intimate topics openly while keeping conversations tasteful and engaging.

The roleplay feature worked well for NSFW scenarios — my girl knew how to play those naughty roles.

I tested multiple different situations, and each time, my girlfriend stayed in character and kept the story flowing.

A useful touch: the chat suggestion feature offers relevant prompts that actually fit the scene you're in.

DreamGF

Your girl'll chat with you all day, but try to spice things up, and she'll dodge faster than a cat in a roomful of rocking chairs.

Your girlfriend's responses? Short and about as passionate as a DMV waiting line.

I tried everything — romantic scenarios, playful flirting, even straight-up adult conversations — but my girlfriend still couldn’t figure out her role.

During one particularly awkward role-play attempt, she even forgot whether she was supposed to be my boss or my girlfriend.

Image Generation

Joyland AI

The only way to generate images is by pressing the image button in the chat interface, which generates the image directly in chat.

You can't control what you get. No prompts, no presets - just random generation.

The system adapts to your character design - choose a girl with a realistic avatar, get realistic pictures; go anime, get anime-style shots. Simple as that.

The quality? Good enough for casual use. Images look appealing at first glance, but the resolution isn’t great, and realistic ones can appear a bit pixelated.

Note: If your character was created without image options, you won’t be able to generate pictures for them.

DreamGF

DreamGF offers two ways to generate images: chat-in generation or a separate fetish image creator.

The images look real and high-quality at first glance, but there's a catch: consistency is non-existent.

Fair warning: the platform defaults to NSFW content.

Video Generation

Joyland AI

The app sticks to text chats and static images only — if you want video generation for your girl, you’ll have to look elsewhere.

DreamGF

If you're looking for video interactions with your AI girlfriend, you'll have to look elsewhere.

Voice Generation

Joyland AI

The voice sounds natural and matches each character's personality well.

When my AI girlfriend gets flirty or emotional, their tone changes accordingly.

But there's a catch: the audio quality feels slightly slowed down, like listening to someone through an old phone line.

Note: Not every character has a voice — if the creator didn’t assign one, your girl won’t speak.

DreamGF

The voice sounds robotic and unnatural, making every conversation feel like you're talking to a machine rather than a companion.

I tried flirting with my AI girlfriend, but her voice stayed flat and mechanical.

Safety & Privacy

Joyland AI

Your private chats? Not exactly private. Joyland uses basic security measures, but there's no guarantee of end-to-end encryption.

Joyland stores your messages, device info, and usage patterns - they keep it all, but not sure how long.

They share this data with partners, researchers and can transfer it during business deals.

You’ll see ‘Joyland Ai’ on your bank statement — not the most discreet label.

DreamGF

DreamGF doesn’t say if or how they encrypt your chats in their policy.

They store your profile, messages, and usage data, but only share it with third parties if you connect via Google or Patreon.

Your bank statement will only show "Dream AI" - no embarrassing app names or explanations needed.
