Nomi AI vs Soulfun AI: Which One Is Better In 2025?

Nomi AI vs Soulfun AI

I've spent a full week with both Nomi AI and Soulfun 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.

Soulfun AI

AI girlfriend platform offering customizable virtual friends with conversational abilities, voice calls, and photo sharing.

Character Diversity

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.

Want more variety? The app lets you set up 10 group chats to mix these characters.

Soulfun AI

The app offers 53 AI girls across different backgrounds. While Asian and Caucasian characters lead the pack, you'll find other ethnicities too.

Age-wise, most characters are in their twenties, but options range from college students to mature companions. For variety, there are also twin characters, anime-style personalities, and fantasy-themed options.

One drawback: there's no way to filter characters by personality or gender. You'll need to browse manually to find your match. It works, but it could be more efficient.

Customization

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.

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).

Want something unique? Create a custom relationship and explain its background.

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.

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

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

You can choose from 500 preset images: 250 anime-style and 250 realistic, with only basic options for body types.

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.

Soulfun AI

There's no detailed character creator here. Instead, you describe how you want your AI girlfriend to look and upload a photo for reference. But heads up - no matter what body type you describe (athletic, curvy, or slim), they all end up looking similar.

The personality setup is straightforward: click on pre-made tags for hobbies, profession, and relationship status, or add your own.

You'll also write their first greeting and profile description.

But watch out - I learned this the hard way: if you change the tags without updating the profile description, things get messy. My AI girl kept switching between being a teacher and a police officer because I forgot to fix her background story.

Chat Experience

Nomi AI

Customization doesn’t end once you’ve built your Nomi — you can personalize her even more after the chat begins.

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

Within the Mind Map — personalize her memory by adding notes on her interests, goals, and defining traits.

It’s organized into Lore, Topics, and Goals — a neat way to track your relationship’s growing history.

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

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

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.

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

While my girl was engaged in many moments, her empathy sometimes felt a bit surface-level.

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

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.

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.

Soulfun AI

Soulfun AI's chat is like having a caring but slightly forgetful friend. The AI remembers small details about you - like when it suggested almond milk for my shake because it recalled my dairy allergy. Nice touch.

But don't expect a perfect memory - it can't remember where we first met or when our anniversary is.

The conversations flow naturally and feel intimate. Your AI girl responds with just the right amount of text - not too chatty, not too brief.

When I was feeling down, my AI (who's into fitness) suggested hitting the gym together. It's these personalized touches that make the experience feel genuine.

But there's a catch. The AI sometimes forgets who they're supposed to be. Mine switched between being a police officer and a teacher, which broke the illusion pretty quickly.

And if you're looking for specific relationship dynamics (like having a dominant partner), you might be disappointed. The AI tends to default to a friendly, nurturing personality, regardless of how you set it up.

NSFW Chat Experience

Nomi AI

My girlfriend smoothly shifted from casual flirting to explicit content, adjusting her language as the conversations intensified.

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.

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.

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

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

While my girlfriend’s “punishment” methods got a bit repetitive, she still kept the experience engaging overall.

Soulfun AI

The AI starts shy but warms up to intimate talk over time. Don't expect instant chemistry. When I tested a "Mistress" character, she was meant to be dominant but easily let me take control - a clear character break that might bother roleplay enthusiasts.

Some scenarios work better than others: the naughty teacher roleplay hit all the right notes, while the boss-employee scenario fell completely flat.

Here's the deal-breaker: the girls won't make the first move. During my tests, it only got flirty when I did first. If you keep things casual, it stays casual.

Image Generation

Nomi AI

Nomi AI offers two ways to generate images:

1. In-chat image generation: Quickly create images that try to fit the conversation
2. Dedicated Image Creator: A separate tool that gives you more control over image customization.

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.

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.

Soulfun AI

When it works, it creates attractive, realistic-looking images of your AI girl. But there's a catch.

During my tests, I noticed quality issues: hands merging into arms, multiple characters appearing in single photos, and your girl's appearance changing dramatically between images.

The platform struggles with custom image requests and sometimes fails to generate them at all. And if you're hoping for NSFW content, you'll need to look elsewhere - it's not available.

Video Generation

Nomi AI

Nomi’s video generator isn’t full video creation — it’s more like turning an image into a short animated clip.

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).

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.

Soulfun AI

I tapped the video call button multiple times during my testing. Each attempt ended the same way - nothing happened. It's there on the menu, teasing you with possibilities, but that's where it ends.

Voice Generation

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.

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.

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.

Soulfun AI

The voice quality hits the mark - it sounds natural, not robotic. You get different voice options, including ones for older characters, which adds variety.

While you can pick voices during setup, they might not always match your AI girl's personality. Think of it as having a sweet, gentle character stuck with a bold, assertive voice.

Voice calls are available, and they work well. You can talk to your AI companion just like you would with a real person. There's also an option to add custom voice-overs if you want to personalize the experience.

Safety & Privacy

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.”

Soulfun AI

Your chats and personal data? SoulFun says they encrypt everything, but they're not telling us how. I checked their Privacy Policy - they collect your texts, media, and device info, but they're fuzzy on the details of who they share it with.

Think of it like a restaurant that promises "fresh ingredients" but won't tell you where they source them.

Good news: your bank statement will show "60yr.com" - not "AI Girlfriend" or anything obvious.
