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

Joyland AI vs Swipey AI

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

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.

Swipey AI

An AI chat platform where users create and customize virtual companions, interacting with them through text, images, and voice notes.

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.

Swipey AI

Swipey AI features 241 characters—198 realistic and 43 animated.

Among the realistic options—you’ll find both AI-generated personalities and avatars inspired by verified real models, giving you a mix of fictional and real-inspired companions to chat with.

The diversity is decent but limited—you’ll mostly find White, Black, and Latina characters in their 20s and 30s.

Each character has a profile with a bio, posts, and both free and paid content, which you can buy individually or unlock entirely with a character-specific “Fun Club” membership.

The search system isn’t very useful—it only filters basic categories like 'Hot Posts' or 'Animated Babes,' with no option to search by personality traits or keywords.

There’s a social media-style feed with categories like 'Trending' and 'New Posts,' but it mainly promotes locked content and the 'Fun Club' membership.

Warning: Clicking on AI girls marked as “live” redirects you to unrelated webcam sites.

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.

Swipey AI

The character creation system is straightforward. You can customize:

• Style: anime or realistic
• Age: 18–40+
• Ethnicity: (e.g., Asian, Middle Eastern, white)
• Facial features: eye color, hair color, and style
• Body features: body type, breast size, butt size

The options are quite detailed, allowing for specific size adjustments across various features.

Personality customization is equally thorough.—You can select:

• Personality traits (e.g., innocent, submissive, confident)
• Profession and hobbies (e.g., lawyer, teacher, yoga, dancing)
• Relationship dynamics (e.g., girlfriend, wife, stranger)
• Voice options include standard and premium versions - the latter recorded by verified models.

Finally, you can review and tweak your choices before locking in your AI companion.

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.

Swipey AI

My girl shone at playful banter—flirty, engaging, and full of the sass you’d expect from a lively text exchange.

When I needed emotional support—my girlfriend replied with warmth and attention—it felt comforting but a bit surface-level.

The truth is, my girl kept things light. Her modern, casual style didn’t quite capture the depth or romantic language you'd expect when trying to build a deeper connection.

When I brought up relationship concerns, my girl's responses leaned more toward playful charm than genuine reassurance.

Think of her like a flirty virtual stripper—great for entertainment and attention—but if you're looking for a genuine emotional connection, you might want to look elsewhere.

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.

Swipey AI

My girl played along with flirty chat and wasn't shy about sexuality, but sometimes she fumbled.

Based on her role, I’m supposed to be the husband, but she sometimes talked about past things she did with her husband—as if I’m not the one.

The roleplay? It’s there, but don’t expect fireworks. My girlfriend kept things dominant but pretty basic, sticking to simple teasing instead of diving deep into our fantasies.

And just when things started to get interesting, it felt like my girl hit the brakes—probably to get me to spend more coins.

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.

Swipey AI

Swipey AI lets you generate images in two ways:

• You can either ask for pictures during chat
• Use their dedicated image generator.

Want a quick image while chatting? Just ask your girl for a picture using your prompts.

How does the dedicated generator work? — Just set your options:

1. Pick your AI girlfriend
2. Choose their pose, outfit, and setting, or enter a custom prompt.
3. Select how many images to generate
4. Hit Generate

About quality: In both cases, the images are high-quality and genuinely realistic, but don’t be surprised if nudity appears—it’s always part of the content.

However, not every prompt hits the mark—sometimes the app seems to block certain prompts and doesn’t fully deliver what I wanted to see.

Image generation is costly—you can only create about 6 to 8 images per month (using your 200-coin monthly allowance), as long as you don’t spend those coins on other features.

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.

Swipey AI

Here’s what you need to know: there’s no real video generation. Instead, the premium subscription gives you access to pre-made videos of certain characters.

Want more? Get a “Fun Club” membership to unlock NSFW videos for those specific characters.

If you want genuine video interactions, 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.

Swipey AI

My girl’s voice matched the character and sounded natural when she spoke, making conversations feel more authentic.

The flirty tone shifts smoothly during conversations, becoming playful and teasing to keep things fun and engaging.

But for some voices, the quality isn’t the best— making understanding a bit difficult.

Warning: Voice messages from AI characters based on real models cost 25 coins—about 1/8 of your monthly coins.

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.

Swipey AI

Swipey AI doesn’t encrypt your chats and only mentions using “appropriate security measures” without explaining what those are.

They store everything: your name, email, birthday, IP address, and every message you send to your AI companion.

What happens to your data? They won’t sell it without your permission, but they do share your information with their staff, service providers, and analytics teams.

On your bank statement, charges will show as "swipey.ai" — not very discreet.
