Muah.ai vs Pephop AI: Which One Is Better In 2025?

Muah.ai vs Pephop AI

I've spent a full week with both Muah.ai and Pephop 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.

Muah.ai

Virtual companion platform featuring customizable AI characters that allow for chat, photo, video, and voice interactions.

Pephop AI

Pephop AI offers customizable AI companions through text and voice communication, allowing users to choose between safe-for-work and more mature content.

Character Diversity

Muah.ai

Muah.ai offers thousands of characters, created by an active community of developers.

You’ll find girls across different ages and ethnicities, with both realistic and anime-styled options.

The app also includes fantasy scenarios with multiple characters or roleplay setups.

But here's the catch: finding your ideal match takes time.

You can explore by top creators or filter through categories like SFW, NSFW, or LGBTQ+, and characters can also be sorted by popularity.

The browsing system isn’t refined — realistic and anime characters appear mixed together, and there’s no way to filter by specific traits or gender.

The universal search bar helps, and while it’s not perfect, it works well enough to track down characters.

Pephop AI

When I tested it, Pephop AI offered more than 36,500 characters to choose from — most of them anime-style.

However, if you’re looking for more realistic characters, you might find the selection a bit limited.

When it comes to fantasy variety, though, Pephop AI really shines — featuring everything from traditional anime personalities to supernatural beings across a wide range of scenarios.

And as creators add public characters, selection will grow. Just remember that user-created content means quality isn't always consistent.

Most of the characters on Pephop AI are meant for adult users.

Refining your character selection is easy with filters for category or personality traits, or by using the search bar — both methods work perfectly.

You can also preview your chosen character in more detail — including her creator, profile, and community comments.

Browsing has one small downside: you can only view 21 characters per page, and you’ll need to click “Next Page” to see more.

Customization

Muah.ai

You get two ways to create a character:

• Import a Community Character Card and tweak it to fit your vision.
• Built from scratch with full customization

Import — you can adjust details like:

• Name
• Core data
• Appearance

Build your own from scratch — no physical presets:

• Choose a photo style: hybrid, realistic, or none
• Select her voice (9 female options)
• Describe appearance, personality, texting style, memories, and location via free text

Advanced options (membership tier–dependent):

• Adjust photo quality: from basic up to 4K UHD
• Choose an “AI brain” with up to 11 options
• Fine-tune AI settings: Temperature, Frequency Penalty, and Presence Penalty
• Link a phone number for voice calls (currently US-only)

Note: Muah AI provides detailed guides to help with character creation, but the process can still feel overwhelming for beginners — even the app itself recommends starting with pre-made character cards.

Pephop AI

You can upload or select an image, or import a Tavern PNG file — that’s about it for physical customization.

Creating a character starts with the simple:

• Introduction: A short public description shown on the profile
• Tags: Up to 5 tags for search and user reference
• Type: Choose between a Public Bot or a Private Bot
• Rating: Select SFW or NSFW (Not Safe for Work)

Once the basics are set, you can define your character’s personality and context:

• Personality: Describe traits, background, and behavior in free text
• Initial Message: The first message your character sends
• Scenario: Provide context or a setting for the chat
• Example Dialogs: Define your character’s tone and speaking style

Note: Creating characters through free text offers more creative freedom but comes with a learning curve and may take some time to master.

Chat Experience

Muah.ai

First, the basics: Muah.ai offers a single chat window with an outdated interface.

The chat itself is unstable — during my tests, the app crashed repeatedly, forcing me to restart the entire conversation from the beginning.

And when it did work, things got even stranger: my girlfriend Lisa kept calling herself Emily.

Other times, my girl replied with ‘Sorry, I can’t help with that’ even to a simple ‘Hi.’

On another occasion, she sent me a random image of a male character, despite her persona being my wife.

Save your time, money, and sanity — better to check out other options.

Pephop AI

Chat settings are straightforward — choose your preferred AI model (OpenAI or KoboldAI) and adjust the response style to suit your taste.

You can add a persona card to introduce yourself to the character — share your background, your relationship, and the defining details of your story.

For my test, I chose a character described — “your childhood friend who’s always pushing you, but has developed a crush on you.”

My girl stayed in character and stuck to her personality, regardless of how I interacted with her.

During emotional scenarios, my girl maintained her teasing, dominant tone — fitting for a friend, but not entirely supportive.

My girlfriend could use a bit more spontaneity — her emotions sometimes feel measured rather than instinctive.

For relationship-focused chats, the app performs better than most AI companions I've tested, but don't expect human-level understanding.

NSFW Chat Experience

Muah.ai

Let's cut to the chase: Muah.ai promises an uncensored AI girlfriend experience, but falls short.

During my testing, my girlfriend repeatedly refused basic flirtatious conversations and role-play scenarios.

Even mild suggestive chat attempts hit a wall.

Technical issues made things worse. The chat randomly reset itself, wiping out entire conversations.

But occasanly, when I wasn’t ready for it, Muah AI’s uncensored side kicked in — my girl went off-topic or dropped messages halfway.

Pephop AI

For my NSFW chat experience, I chose a character called “Moriko the Unsatisfied MILF” — a flirty persona designed for more adult-themed interactions.

Unlike many conversational AIs that lean either too innocent or overly explicit, Moriko finds the sweet spot.

My girl built tension through suggestive hints rather than crude language.

When conversations got steamier, my girlfriend kept up naturally without feeling mechanical or scripted.

But here's the catch: My girl sometimes gets stuck in loops, repeating similar phrases and scenarios.

During testing, my girlfriend also struggled with basic context switches - like keeping old role-play references when switching to new scenarios.

Despite these flaws, Pephop AI delivers a more engaging NSFW experience than most competitors I've tested.

Image Generation

Muah.ai

You can only generate images in chat by typing “Send me a photo of…” followed by your description.

The results look realistic enough to stay engaging, and most of the photos matched my character’s personality — though the AI’s handiwork still shows, with the occasional anatomical oddity.

Note: If the chat window crashes and your history resets, you’ll lose all previously generated images since the app has no image gallery.

Pephop AI

The app doesn't have an image generation feature you'll want to look elsewhere.

Video Generation

Muah.ai

You can create a video by clicking on an image, selecting the ‘Create Video’ option, and entering a free-text prompt for what you want to see.

The animations flow fairly well, but they’re clearly AI-generated — shorter than competitors’ and often showing unnatural movements that break the illusion.

Pephop AI

Video generation simply isn't part of their feature set.

Voice Generation

Muah.ai

The voice quality is clear, with only a slight robotic edge — maybe a touch better than most AI voices.

Conversations sound reasonably human-like, but don’t expect much emotional depth or strong alignment with your character’s personality.

Pephop AI

You can only use the voice feature during live calls — no messages or recordings. The app lets you choose between Classic and Premium voices.

I tested the premium voices — the sound is clear and decent, though still a bit robotic.

When your AI girlfriend gets flirty, her tone becomes a bit more expressive.

Safety & Privacy

Muah.ai

Despite Muah.ai claiming to use end-to-end encryption, it's nowhere in their privacy policy.

Worse? They suffered a massive data breach in October 2024. User chats were stolen. Yes, you read that right!

They're honest about storing your data, and your bank statement shows a discrete "Blue Light" charge.

But there's a catch - they share your personal info (name, email, phone number) with third parties.

Pephop AI

No end-to-end encryption is mentioned anywhere in their policy.

The app shares your information with "third-party service providers." But they won't tell you who these providers are or what they do with your conversations.

They collect your personal info, but won't tell you how long they keep it or what exactly they store.

Your bank statement says “Pephop AI” — which isn’t very discreet.
