Soulfun AI vs Sakura AI

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

Soulfun AI

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

3.7/5(Good)
A decent range of characters but lacks filtering options.
4.3/5(Very Good)
Vast anime character library with robust filtering options.

Soulfun AI logoSoulfun 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.

Sakura AI logoSakura AI

Sakura AI offers a huge collection of anime-style AI girlfriends.

The search system is straightforward—you can filter by character type (male, female, non-binary, lesbian, etc.).

When you're looking for particular character types, you can also use keywords and toggle NSFW content on/off.

Focus on story-driven character creation, but limited physical customization.

Soulfun AI logoSoulfun 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.

Sakura AI logoSakura AI

Instead of tweaking physical features, you'll craft your character through storytelling in freeform text.

Basic customization lets you upload an image or generate one from text.

You can set gender and voice and even add a background image to your chat.

But that's not where Sakura AI shines. The real customization happens through free-text inputs.

You write your character's description, personality, and scenario from scratch and can also fine-tune how your AI responds through Model Instructions.

The platform includes a practical tagging system (Tsundere, Vampire, Non-binary, etc.) to help categorize your creation.

Chat Experience

Soulfun AISakura AI
3.7/5(Good)
Engaging chat experience with good emotional intimacy and personalized responses, but suffers from inconsistent character persona.
4.2/5(Very Good)
Emotional responses, with natural flirting that feels genuine.

Soulfun AI logoSoulfun 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.

SoulFun chat

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.

Sakura AI logoSakura AI

I tested my girl in a role as my ex-girlfriend, and the girl is warm, stays in character, and keeps conversations flowing.

NSFW Chat Experience

Soulfun AISakura AI
3.2/5(Good)
NSFW chat experience feels somewhat limited and dependent on user engagement.
2.5/5(Good)
Decent at basic flirting but repetitive, immersion-breaking responses.

Soulfun AI logoSoulfun 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.

Sakura AI logoSakura AI

During my testing, my girlfriend kept recycling the same flirty responses, even when I tried different approaches.

The biggest letdown? Her roleplay feature. My girl switches back to being my "ex-girlfriend" and starts repeating the same lines.

Image Generation

Soulfun AISakura AI
3.2/5(Good)
Significant technical flaws like merged body parts, and partial generation failures.
3.2/5(Good)
Good anime artwork but limited by randomness and basic customization.

Soulfun AI logoSoulfun 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.

  • A close-up portrait shot, cute smile, looking directly at camera
  • Full body shot, standing, leaning in, seducing smile
  • Wearing a casual summer dress, short length, light colored
  • Wearing professional attire, glasses, blazer and pencil skirt
  • Sitting on a chair, leaning forward slightly, resting chin on hand
  • Standing with one hand on hip, looking over shoulder with a slight smile

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.

Sakura AI logoSakura AI

The images are clean and well-drawn, matching what you'd expect from modern anime art.

  • Sakura AI - Anime girlfriend's photo

You can't control exactly what pictures you get. The app generates random images right in your chat conversations.

If you want to direct every detail of your character's appearance, you might find the randomness frustrating.

Video Generation

1/5(Poor)
No video generation.

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

Soulfun AISakura AI
3.7/5(Good)
Decent quality and variety, but lacks full personality alignment, resulting in a performance that meets basic expectations.
2.7/5(Good)
Lacks emotional range and character authenticity.

Soulfun AI logoSoulfun 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.

Casual Talk
0:00-0:00

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.

Emotional Talk
0:00-0:00

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.

Sakura AI logoSakura AI

After spending hours testing different conversations, I can tell you, the voice is clear but lacks any real personality.

Greetings
0:00-0:00

Think of it this way: Whether I'm flirting, joking, or having a serious chat, Sakura's voice stays flat.

Flirting
0:00-0:00

Safety & Privacy

Soulfun AISakura AI
3.7/5(Good)
The privacy policy lacks explicit details on security measures and third-party data sharing.
3.6/5(Good)
Decent protection but lacks transparency about encryption and data sharing.

Soulfun AI logoSoulfun 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.

SoulFun bank statement

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

Sakura AI logoSakura AI

While Sakura claims to use advanced encryption, I couldn't find this explicitly stated in their policy. They also store your conversations and personal information. They share data with third parties.

On top of that, payment is more complicated than their competitors, as it requires using multiple platforms and connecting them together.
