Nomi AI vs Yodayo: Which One Should You Use In 2025?

Nomi AI vs Yodayo

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

An AI girlfriend platform that enables the creation of personalized virtual girlfirend with distinct personalities for friendship, romance, mentorship, and roleplays.

Yodayo

An AI-powered platform that converts text prompts into anime-style artwork, offering character customization, community sharing features, and interactive character chat capabilities for anime enthusiasts.

Character Diversity

Nomi AI

Here's the truth about Nomi AI's character selection: there isn't one. You can only interact with characters you build yourself.

Yodayo

Yodayo offers thousands of characters to choose from.

Most are anime-style or fantasy-based, with a smaller selection of realistic characters available.

I found everything from traditional anime personalities to fantasy creatures like orcs and cyborgs.

The search system is practical. You can filter characters:

• Filter by traits or categories
• Browse: Popular, Trending, New, etc.
• Search using keywords.

This helps narrow down options quickly, though the process could be overwhelming for first-time users due to the sheer number of choices.

Customization

Nomi AI

The customization itself is straightforward but limited.

You’ll start by choosing the basics for your girlfriend:

• Relationship type (like friend, girlfriend, mentor, etc.)
• Gender

What you won't find here are detailed physical customization options or anime-style characters. Instead, you simply choose a photo for your girlfriend from a curated gallery.

You can set her personality and interests.

Want to write a background story? It's optional, but it helps shape your girlfirend identity.

Yodayo

First, let's address the elephant in the room: Yodayo doesn't offer physical appearance settings. Instead, it focuses entirely on personality and interaction — you can only upload an image of your character.

You get two creation paths:

• Quick AI-assisted setup through YoPilot,
• Detailed manual customization.

Manual mode gives you more control - you write the character:

• Description
• Persona
• First message
• Scenario

Pilot keeps it simple: type in a name, description, and gender, and the AI does the heavy lifting.

You can choose voice presets (including celebrity voices) or upload your recordings.

The platform features hashtags and a tagging system that helps categorize your character.

The real customization happens in the advanced settings:

• Different LLM models
• System preset (such as roleplay, spicy roleplay, humor, etc.)
• Model parameters.

You can also customize image generation with many fine-tuning and preset options.

Chat Experience

Nomi AI

Nomi delivers what it promises. I set her personality traits to flirtatious, and that's exactly how she behaved.

While the emotional support isn't groundbreaking, the replies are short and natural, making it feel more like texting a real person than chatting with an AI.

My girlfriend handles relationship talks smoothly, without the robotic feel.

The downside? You'll wait longer between messages than competitors.

Yodayo

The platform lets you pick from multiple AI models - from free options to premium ones like GPT-4 and Claude.

I tested Nephra 12b (a free model) and found the conversations flow naturally, without the robotic feel you might expect.

The flirtation level adjusts based on your interaction style, though it can sometimes get quite forward.

During testing, my girl handled both light chats and deeper conversations well, showing solid emotional awareness and offering comfort when needed.

NSFW Chat Experience

Nomi AI

Your girlfriend is open to intimate discussions, but the results are mixed. When she's good, she's engaging, offering detailed responses and playful banter.

But there's a catch: she makes progress in the interaction, but then pulls back, which can come off a bit robotic or inconsistent.

For roleplay enthusiasts, here's the truth: While she'll participate in your scenarios, her responses lack detail, and you'll need more time before things get spicy.

Yodayo

My girlfriend handled sexual topics with surprising authenticity. She maintained her character and adapted to different scenarios without breaking immersion.

The role-play experience is solid. My girl stayed in character and followed conversation threads naturally, whether you're keeping things light and flirty or exploring deeper fantasies.

But she's not perfect - sometimes her responses can feel repetitive during longer sessions.

Image Generation

Nomi AI

Nomi AI offers two ways to generate images: a dedicated "create art" feature and in-chat generation, but NSFW content creation is not allowed.

In-chat image generation is a bit of a mixed bag—sometimes it nails it, other times it completely misses the mark.

The "create art" feature is your best bet. It consistently produces high-quality, realistic images based on your free-text description.

While the overall results are impressive, you'll notice some quirks with hands and fingers - they often look slightly unnatural.

Yodayo

Yodayo offers two ways to do it.

The In-chat image generation- ask for a picture, and a settings window will appear:

• What to generate (yourself, your face, or the last message)
• A custom prompt using free text
• The image engine and fine-tuning settings
• Canvas size, and more

The result? You'll get natural-looking photos that match your character, but occasional inconsistencies.

One limitation is that changing the pre-generated prompts can be difficult for new users and may lead to unwanted results.

The separate image tool offers more control, with detailed prompt explanations and precise settings.

While powerful, it comes with a catch: you can't generate images of your specific AI companion here. You'll need to use the in-chat generator for that.

Video Generation

Nomi AI

The sharp and detailed videos make the AI girlfriend feel more lifelike than static images.

While these videos look great, they’re completely silent — your AI girl won’t speak or make any sounds.

But here's the truth: while impressive, it's not flawless. The eye movements can look unnatural, and some body animations appear stiff.

Yodayo

The app doesn't generate videos. Period. If you're after a more lifelike experience with video features, you'll need to look elsewhere.

Voice Generation

Nomi AI

I spent hours testing her voice features, and here's the truth: imagine an audiobook narrator attempting to be your girlfriend.

I tried flirting with my girlfriend, but the voice stayed emotionless.

However, there is a workaround: you can connect an Eleven Labs API key to access different voice options, giving your girlfriend a more unique sound.

Yodayo

The voice sounds robotic and flat - imagine Siri from 2011, not a modern AI girlfriend.

During my testing, even flirty conversations felt mechanical, with only slight tone variations that barely register.

Privacy

Nomi AI

Your chats with Nomi aren't encrypted and even advise against sharing personal information.

Nomi stores your account details, chat messages, and usage data and may share them with third-party service providers.

Your bank statement will show "Nomi.ai" as the merchant.

Yodayo

Your messages are locked down with bank-grade encryption. This means nobody, not even Yodayo's team, can peek at your private conversations.

But here's what you should know: Yodayo keeps your messages and shares some data with companies like Google Analytics.

When you check your bank statement, you'll see "Moescape AI" which apparently is new brand name for Yodayo. But what it meas for you? It means you can forget about the discretion.
