Nomi AI vs HeraHaven AI
I've spent a full week with both Nomi AI and HeraHaven 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.
Nomi AI
A platform offering customizable AI girlfriends with emotional intelligence and memory, designed for authentic conversations and relationships through text or voice.

HeraHaven AI
A virtual companion creation platform that provides AI-powered personalized interactions, multimedia sharing, and learning capabilities.

Character Diversity
| Nomi AI | HeraHaven AI |
|---|---|
1/5(Poor) Limited diversity with only DIY character creation and no pre-made options. | 3.4/5(Good) Moderate variety with realistic and anime options across multiple ethnicities. |
Nomi AI
No pre-made personalities, no variety in ethnicity or age, and no anime — meaning there aren’t any ready-made characters to choose from.
You’ll need to create your own girls — you can have up to 10 in total.

Nomi AI – Custom-Made Nomis
Want more variety? The app lets you set up 10 group chats to mix these characters.

Nomi AI - Character Slots
HeraHaven AI
HeraHaven offers 41 characters: 28 realistic women and 13 anime-styled companions.

HeraHaven AI - Characters Selection
Most girls fall into the 18–30 bracket, which might feel limiting if you’re seeking older personalities, since only a few are available.

HeraHaven AI - Anime Character Selection
Almost all the girls are slim or fit, with only one or two offering a different body type.

HeraHaven AI - Character Selection (Part2)
The filtering system is basic - you can only sort by character type and gender.

HeraHaven AI - Filter by Type and Gender
Customization
| Nomi AI | HeraHaven AI |
|---|---|
3.8/5(Good) Solid personality options but limited physical customization holds it back. | 4/5(Good) Solid customization with satisfying depth, but lacks a final review option |
Nomi AI
As you first log in to the app, you go through the onboarding process — you’ll be asked for your name, age, and gender.

Nomi AI – Onboarding Process
Then, it’s time to set up your AI partner basics:
- Name, and gender: Male, female, or nonbinary.
- Relationship type: Choose what kind of bond you want — from romantic partner to mentor (four options).

Nomi AI - Basic Setup
Want something unique? Create a custom relationship and explain its background.

Nomi AI - Custom Relationship
Personality Builder is where things get interesting — you can select 3 to 7 traits from several categories:
- Main Characteristics: modest, sarcastic, shy, flirty, etc.
- Expressive: sassy, witty, introverted, etc.
- Temperament & Values: arrogant, dominant, humble, etc.
- Additional: gamer, magical, spiritual, etc.

Nomi AI – Personality Traits
Then, you can (optionally) add a background story — write your own or let the AI create one for you.

Nomi AI – Background Options
Finally, it's time to choose your companion’s look — but this is where Nomi shows its limits.

Nomi AI – Select an Image for Your Girl
You can choose from 500 preset images: 250 anime-style and 250 realistic, with only basic options for body types.

Nomi AI – Realistic Images
If you’re looking for detailed visual customization, you might find the options a bit limiting — because that’s all Nomi AI currently offers in terms of physical design.

Nomi AI - Anime Style Images
HeraHaven AI
The first step is picking a character type (anime or realistic) and gender (male or female).

HeraHaven AI - Gender and Style
The physical customization covers most of the basics:
- Pick from 6 ethnicities
- Choose an age group
- Hair style and color
- Body customization includes only the type and breast size

HeraHaven AI - Physical Customization
The personality builder is where things get interesting. You’ve got two routes:
- Pick from 21 ready-made personalities
- Or fill blank text fields

HeraHaven AI - Ready Made Personalities
If you choose a preset, all the fields auto-fill with that character’s traits.

HeraHaven AI - Free Text Personality Fields
If you don’t, you can build from free text or by clicking through categories.

HeraHaven AI - Character Trait Presets
You can also pick from 9 different voice options for your girl.

HeraHaven AI - Voice Options
There’s no summary page — the only option is regenerating the image if you don’t like her look.

HeraHaven AI - Regenerate Character Image
Note: the app is mainly designed for mobile. Mouse use is clumsy, and some sliders are either missing or too small to be practical.

HeraHaven AI - Limited Desktop Navigation
Chat Experience
| Nomi AI | HeraHaven AI |
|---|---|
4.6/5(Very Good) Mostly natural conversations, with minor lapses and a highly customizable chat experience. | 3.7/5(Good) Offers pleasant but shallow exchanges that lack depth and follow-through. |
Nomi AI
Customization doesn’t end once you’ve built your Nomi — you can personalize her even more after the chat begins.

Nomi AI - Memory Map
In "Backstory +", you can fine-tune even more — from their appearance and personality to how they perceive you.

Nomi AI - Memory Hub
Within the Mind Map — personalize her memory by adding notes on her interests, goals, and defining traits.

Nomi AI - Add Custom Memory
It’s organized into Lore, Topics, and Goals — a neat way to track your relationship’s growing history.

Nomi AI – Mind Map List
Want to know if Nomi AI's chat feels real? I created Natalie - bold, flirty, and playful - to test it for you.

Nomi AI – My Created Nomi
Starting a chat is easy. Choose from fun, themed ice-breakers — each with three options, or just jump right in.

Nomi AI – Chat Starter Themes
After I personalized a few things in chat, I can confidently say my girl remembered those settings and stayed consistent with her personality and the situation.

Nomi AI - Initial Chat

When I tried some jokes, my girlfriend recognized them and played along.

Nomi AI - Sense of Humor

Nomi AI - Sense of Humor
While my girl was engaged in many moments, her empathy sometimes felt a bit surface-level.

Nomi AI - Emotional Depth

And occasionally, my girlfriend’d make odd jumps in conversation — like suggesting pizza right after we planned to cook together.

Nomi AI - Conversation Flow

But the more you chat, the better Nomi knows you — the Mind Map evolves as it keeps track of everything you’ve shared.

Over time, my girlfriend started recalling moments from our past conversations — her replies became more relevant and felt real.

Nomi AI - Connection Over Time

Nomi AI - Connection Over Time
Note: Your Nomi’s memory and chat personalization can seem a bit overwhelming at first, but after a little practice, you’ll find it easy to use and customize.
HeraHaven AI
Before chatting, you can check her profile with traits and pick a scenario preset to shape the story.

HeraHaven AI - Character Profile and Scenarios
My girlfriend felt like a sweet first crush, blushing easily and keeping things light and pleasant, almost like the beginning of a teen love story.

HeraHaven AI - Sweet Acquaintance Vibe

HeraHaven AI - Sweet Acquaintance Vibe
My girl kept the charm, but her short replies made conversations one-sided.

HeraHaven AI - Short Chat Replies

HeraHaven AI - Short Chat Replies
When I needed emotional support, the replies turned generic — simple comfort like “I’m always here for you” without meaningful follow-up or concern.

HeraHaven AI - Emotional Support

HeraHaven AI - Emotional Support
Want romance? You’ll get plenty of enthusiasm, but don’t expect deeper emotional connections or imaginative shared experiences.

HeraHaven AI - Romance Without Depth

| Nomi AI | HeraHaven AI |
|---|---|
4.5/5(Very Good) Exceptional range from romantic nuance to explicit interaction while maintaining character consistency. | 3.6/5(Good) Maintains innocent character but struggles with depth in roleplay scenarios. |
Nomi AI
My girlfriend smoothly shifted from casual flirting to explicit content, adjusting her language as the conversations intensified.

Nomi AI – Adaptive NSFW Chat

Nomi AI – Adaptive NSFW Chat
The responses feel organic rather than scripted, and as I shifted my tone to become more explicit, my girlfriend picked up on the language and responded naturally.

Nomi AI – Adaptive Language Responses

Nomi AI – Adaptive Language Responses
What surprised me most was how my girlfriend adjusted her overall approach based on my cues — whether I leaned toward slow-building romance or more direct encounters.

Role-play is where Nomi shows real potential. During testing, she didn't just follow scenarios - she created them.

Nomi AI – NSFW Chat Roleplay Creativity

After my girl settled the rules, she stayed true to the context and consistent with her character.

Nomi AI – NSFW Chat Character Consistency

In one test, I tried to throw my girlfriend off her role, but she held her ground and kept the scene flowing naturally.

Nomi AI – NSFW Chat Scene Control

Nomi AI – NSFW Chat Scene Control
While my girlfriend’s “punishment” methods got a bit repetitive, she still kept the experience engaging overall.

Nomi AI – Engaging Scenarios

Nomi AI – Engaging Scenarios
HeraHaven AI
My girl was built with an innocent personality that came through in every chat, more ‘shy girl next door’ than ‘seductive temptress,’ which sometimes felt a bit shallow.

HeraHaven AI - NSFW Chat: She Stayed Innocent

HeraHaven AI - NSFW Chat: She Stayed Innocent
Not every roleplay went as expected — my girl stayed playful only, with no sexual talk, just ‘bad student’ punishments like cleaning the classroom.

HeraHaven AI - NSFW Chat: Avoids Sexual Talk

HeraHaven AI - NSFW Chat: Avoids Sexual Talk
My girl often avoided my roleplays, and when she finally joined, her replies remained tame.

HeraHaven AI - NSFW Chat: Tame Roleplay

HeraHaven AI - NSFW Chat: Tame Roleplay
The biggest letdown? My girlfriend kept repeating herself in roleplay — the same lines, the same expressions, again and again.

Image Generation
| Nomi AI | HeraHaven AI |
|---|---|
3.9/5(Good) Solid image quality and consistent character appearance. | 4/5(Good) Decent, consistent images with minor flaws. |
Nomi AI
Nomi AI offers two ways to generate images:
- In-chat image generation: Quickly create images that try to fit the conversation
- Dedicated Image Creator: A separate tool that gives you more control over image customization.

Nomi AI – In-Chat Image Generation
Dedicated Image Creator
- Choose an image style: anime or realistic.
- Write a free-text prompt describing what you want to see.
- Select an aspect ratio (three options available).
- Optionally, add a reference pose by uploading an image.

Nomi AI – Dedicated Image Generator
Quality: Nomi’s image generator delivers generally high-quality photos, though not in high resolution.
Image generation is slower than other platforms, sometimes taking a few minutes per image, but it’s also noticeably cheaper.
Note: NSFW prompts are not allowed. The spiciest results you can get in chat are mild and only appear when they fit the current topic.
HeraHaven AI
The are two ways to create images:
- Dedicated Image Creator
- In-chat Generation
Dedicated Image Creator
A standalone tool with more options and finer control.
- You can choose a character from the selection or choose your own.
- Enter what you want to see as a prompt, or pick presets.
- Choose the number of images.

HeraHaven AI - Image Generation Feature
Warning: if you leave the results page without adding images to favorites, they’re lost.
In-chat generation
Quick image right there in chat.
- Send “Can I see…” commands with your prompts.

HeraHaven AI - In Chat Image Generation
Quality: Good overall, characters stay true to their personality with only minor AI quirks.
Video Generation
| Nomi AI | HeraHaven AI |
|---|---|
3.8/5(Good) Decent-looking videos, though some animations feel stiff or unnatural, and customization options are limited. | 1/5(Poor) Completely lacks video generation capabilities - a major feature gap. |
Nomi AI
Nomi’s video generator isn’t full video creation — it’s more like turning an image into a short animated clip.

Nomi AI - Video Generation
Here's how it works:
- Choose an image to serve as the base.
- Provide a text prompt (make sure it follows the app’s content rules).
- Select the output quality (SD or HD).

Nomi AI - Video Generation Settings
The videos work - they're watchable and add more life to your interactions than static images.
But let's be honest: the quality isn't winning any awards. The footage comes out pixelated, and the character movements often feel mechanical rather than natural.
Note: NSFW generation isn’t available, and movement prompts feel a bit limited or don’t always apply to the final video.
HeraHaven AI
Looking for those cute AI girlfriend video moments you've seen advertised elsewhere? You won't find them here.
Voice Generation
| Nomi AI | HeraHaven AI |
|---|---|
3.5/5(Good) Decent voice quality but lacks the natural spark that makes AI companions feel alive. | 3.2/5(Good) Voice is functional but robotic and lacks character-specific traits. |
Nomi AI
Nomi AI offers four default voices to choose from, and you can upload your own custom voice to make your girl — and the overall experience — feel more personalized.

Nomi AI - Voice Options
One big plus of Nomi AI’s voice feature is its ElevenLabs integration — enabling users to import and use ElevenLabs voices for greater variety, though it requires a paid plan.

Nomi AI – ElevenLabs Integration Options
Want to know how Nomi AI’s voice actually sounds? It works, but it’s a bit like a slightly robotic audiobook narrator — nothing that’ll make you go “wow.”
The voice does match Nomi’s personality, and she adjusts her tone a little when flirting or expressing emotions.
HeraHaven AI
The voice quality is clear enough to understand, but that's where the positives end.
Zero emotional range. Happy moments, sad moments, flirty banter – everything comes out in the same flat tone.
Safety & Privacy
| Nomi AI | HeraHaven AI |
|---|---|
2.9/5(Good) Lacks basic encryption with concerning data sharing practices. | 3.8/5(Good) Strong encryption and discreet billing, but lacks transparency about data retention. |
Nomi AI
Their policy clearly states that your messages "may be unencrypted" - meaning someone could potentially read your private conversations.
Nomi AI stores everything. Your account details, chat history, and how you use the app - it's all saved on their servers.
They also share this information with other companies, though they don't specify which ones.
Your bank statement shows a ‘Nomi.ai’ charge — not exactly discreet.”

Nomi AI - Bank Statement
HeraHaven AI
Your chats are protected by the same encryption banks use. Every message, every interaction, every preference - all locked down tight.
HeraHaven stores your chat history to personalize your experience, but they're not crystal clear about how long they keep this data.
They share some of your information with service providers - though they could be more upfront about exactly what and with whom.

HeraHaven AI - Bank Statement
Your statement will show 'herahelp.com'— instead of anything revealing.
