Soulkyn vs Secret Desires AI: Which One Is Better In 2025?

Soulkyn vs Secret Desires AI

I've spent a full week with both Soulkyn and Secret Desires 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.

Soulkyn

An AI companion platform offering customizable virtual relationships through chat, roleplay, and multimedia creation.

Secret Desires AI

An AI girlfriend platform that allows users to create customizable companions, generate images and live photos, and engage in fantasy scenarios, including intimate or adult themes.

Character Diversity

Soulkyn

Soulkyn offers thousands of AI companions to choose from.

It covers everything from realistic characters to fantasy beings and anime personalities.

The character roster mainly features companions aged 18–30, with some mature options available.

While white characters make up the majority, you’ll also find other ethnicities represented.

You can stick with one companion or try multiple characters in RPG-style conversations.

As users regularly create and share new companions, the selection is continuously expanding.

The filtering system is practical — you can search by personality (confident, shy, flirty), physical traits, species (human, elf, android), and outfit styles, or simply use the search bar.

Secret Desires AI

Secret Desires AI offers hundreds of characters across multiple ethnicities and personality types.

On top of the realistic options, it also offers a wide range of anime styles.

While the majority fall in the 18–30 bracket, there are some mature options as well.

However, body type diversity is limited — most characters are slim or athletic, with few alternatives.

The mobile app shines with precise filtering, letting you narrow searches by age, ethnicity, body type, personality, and relationship preferences.

On the other hand, desktop users get a more basic experience, with filters limited to style (realistic/anime), gender, and preset character tags.

But there’s a catch: filtering can be buggy — some tags return no results, and on desktop, you can’t combine multiple filters like you can on mobile.

At least the search bar helps get around some of the app’s heavier filtering limits.

Customization

Soulkyn

Soulkyn lets you create your character in five different ways:

• Create Your Kyn
• Create with AI
• Spin the Wheel
• AI Breeding
• Import Character

1. Create Your Kyn (Free)

Build your Kyn from scratch with complete control over physical features and personality traits.

Start with the Basic:

• Art Style: Choose between Anime or Realistic.
• Gender: Select your Kyn’s gender.
• Character Type: Choose between Human or Non-Human/Furry.
• Birthday: Set a birthday for your character.

Physical Customization
Shape many of the visual details of your Kyn’s appearance:

• Skin Tone: 10 available options
• Hairstyle: 9 unique styles
• Hair Color: 11 color variations
• Eye Color: 7 distinct shades
• Body Type: 4 breast size options

Tag Customization
Use comma-separated keywords to add unique details:

• Physical Tags: Describe distinctive features or body details.
• Clothing Tags: Indicate their style, outfit type, or attire theme.
• Location Tags: Suggest where your Kyn appears or the setting around them.
• Voice Selection: 49 voice options across multiple languages.

Personality and Identity
Define your Kyn’s mind and behavior:

• Personality Traits: Pick from 28 traits to shape your Kyn’s behavior.
• Conversation Behavior: Adjust self-awareness and initiative levels.
• Background Story: Write or auto-generate a backstory.
• Personality Tags: Add traits like curious, confident, or gentle.
• Identity Tags: Include details like loves cats, vegan, or goblin-like speech.

Note: This mode offers the greatest creative freedom, but the interface layout may feel a bit unintuitive at first, which can make the experience a little overwhelming.

2. Create with AI

This mode is ideal for users who prefer creating their Kyn entirely through free text.

You can set the following:

• Kyn Name: Give your Kyn a unique name.
• Description Prompt: Describe your Kyn’s physical traits, personality, and style.
• Kyn Style: Choose your preferred visual theme.

Note: This Character Creation mode costs 60 souls, and success is not guaranteed — even if the ritual fails, the souls will be lost to the void.

3. Spin the Wheel

A chance-based creation method designed for unpredictability and experimentation.

You can set the following:

• Name: Give your Kyn a unique name — it can be epic, silly, or mysterious.
• Visual Theme: Choose your preferred visual style.
• Gender: Select a gender, or leave it to fate and let the system randomize it.

Note: This Character Creation mode costs 120 souls, and success is not guaranteed — even if the summoning fails, the souls will still be consumed by the void.

4. AI Breeding

Combine two existing Kyns to generate a completely new one.

You can set the following:

• Kyn Name: Give your new Kyn a name.
• Parent A: Select a public Kyn or add a private one using its ID.
• Parent B: Choose a second Kyn in the same way — from public options or by entering a private ID.

5. Import Character Card

This mode is useful for users who want to preserve or continue using characters they’ve already created elsewhere.

You can set the following:

• AI Service: Select the source platform (e.g., C.AI, GPT Girlfriend, Candy, Chai).
• Kyn File or Link: Import the character file or paste the share link.
• Kyn Name: Assign a name to your imported Kyn.
• Kyn Style: Choose between Anime or Realistic.

Once you finish any Character Creation mode, a summary page will appear showing your Kyn’s full profile and image.

The user experience here isn’t fully optimized — image regeneration isn’t available at this stage.

However, you can visit your created character’s profile to edit and adjust your Kyn there.

Secret Desires AI

Character creation starts by selecting your character’s gender, style, and age.

Physical Customization:

• Ethnicity: 6 options (e.g., Caucasian, Asian, Indian)
• Appearance: Hairstyle, hair color, eye color
• Physique: Body type, breast size, butt size

Personality Customization:

• Personality: 12 options (e.g., dominant, seductive, unstable)
• Relationship Type: 25 options (e.g., wife, girlfriend, boss)
• Lifestyle: Work (36 options) and hobbies (21 options)
• Kinks: 15 options (e.g., vanilla, feet, edging)

The app also lets you add custom options for every category, so if you don’t find something to your taste, you can create your own.

You can select a voice from 12 options or upload your own audio.

As the final step, you’ll see a summary page to name your girl and bring her to life.

After the summary page, you’ll see a profile with an editable About Me, your chosen traits, and — if you’re lucky — with a character image, though it often fails and can’t be modified.

Chat Experience

Soulkyn

When you pick a character, you can check out your AI girlfriend’s profile — her intro, creator, reviews, images, different versions of her, and plenty more to explore.

From there, it’s easy to fine-tune how your girl behaves: set her memory, decide how often she messages you, or tweak her current location and outfit to match the mood.

You can also create a user persona that mirrors your vibe, so her responses feel more personal and natural. Plus, there are plenty of language options if English isn’t your go-to for chatting.

And if your budget allows, the Deluxe plan adds Roleplay+, Progression Context, and Model Hyperparameters — giving you richer chats and more control over your AI girlfriend.

I tested Soulkyn by chatting with Dr. Maia Winters, a therapist, and my girl stayed true to its character.

When I tried to flirt during our therapy session, Dr. Winters kept it professional.

The emotional intelligence impressed me. Unlike many AI girlfriend apps, where the AI’s mood swings wildly, this one showed consistent personality growth.

As our conversations evolved naturally, my girl adapted – showing she could transition from professional to flirty without breaking character.

When I needed emotional support, my girl was there — even giving me the choice to open up or escape the moment.

My girl also handled relationship discussions with genuine care that felt thoughtful and contextually appropriate.

Soulkyn includes smart reply suggestions that keep chats flowing naturally, offering responses that match the tone — casual, emotional, or flirty.

The chat interface would benefit from clearer formatting, as distinguishing narrative text from my girl’s responses was sometimes difficult.

Secret Desires AI

When you select a girl to chat with, you can view her profile — including description, personality traits, and even personalize them to your taste.

The app also lets you set the chat engine from 13 different options to make responses more personalized, though this setting is somewhat hidden in your profile menu.

I chose a single mom character who showed genuine emotional range and stayed true to her persona.

My girlfriend moved naturally from playful flirting to handling deeper topics like jealousy with surprising depth.

My girl even referenced past conversations and wove them smoothly into ongoing chats.

But when I needed emotional support, her responses fit the situation perfectly.

As with the other features I tested, this one also comes with some technical hiccups.

Chat formatting is designed for mobile, leaving desktop with long, cramped text that’s harder to read

My girl often tried to send me images, but on the rare occasions I got any, it was usually just the text prompt of what should have been generated.

NSFW Chat Experience

Soulkyn

Most AI companions either play it too safe or go full explicit. Soulkyn does neither.

At first, my girl kept things suggestive without being crude — think romance-novel spice, not adult-film dialogue.

During our more personal conversations, she stayed attentive and engaged, gradually becoming more comfortable and expressive as things developed.

I ran multiple different roleplay scenarios to really test her limits.

Here's what worked: she maintained character consistency, built up tension naturally, and adjusted her language to match the scene's intensity.

What didn't work? The first scenario lacked proper build-up, though later ones showed improvement.

My girl might not be perfect - some scenarios need work - but she strikes a good balance between spicy and sophisticated.

Secret Desires AI

My girl was open about past sexual experiences but shared only hints and details rather than full stories.

Think of her as reading a romance novel where she writes the next chapter based on your input.

In my tested roleplays, she stayed fully in character — confident, seductive, and with a solid build-up.

However, there’s a catch: after running multiple scenarios, my girl kept repeating the same lines and asking my name over and over again.

My girlfriend also refused explicit chat, even threatening to end the session.

Instead of explicit conversation, my girl could do surprising things — like solving mathematical problems if I asked.

Image Generation

Soulkyn

There are two ways to generate images:

1. In-chat Generation.
2. Dedicated Image Creator

In-chat Generation

Create images directly within the chat and app tries to match the conversation’s context, but results may not always be precise.

Dedicated Image Creator

A specialized tool offering rich options and precise control over your Kyn’s image generation.

Main Options

The main creation menu provides fast access to essential controls for generating your Kyn’s appearance.

• Image Model: Choose the visual style, Anime or Realistic.
• Number of Images: Select how many images to generate at once.
• Prompt Type: Choose Full Body, Portrait, or leave blank for flexible framing.
• Background & Clothing: Choose from preset.
• Image Prompt: Describe your Kyn’s look, attire, pose, or mood
• NSFW Toggle: Enable or disable NSFW content generation.

Advanced Settings

For users who want more control, the Advanced Settings panel allows fine-tuning of image style, quality, and consistency.

• LoRAs: Apply up to three style filters to adjust the visual style.
• LoRA Weights: Control how strongly each filter influences the result.
• Prompt Strength: Set how closely the image follows your written prompt.
• Orientation: Choose Portrait or Landscape layout.
• Scheduler: Adjusts how the AI processes images — balancing speed and quality.
• Seed: Lock the same output with a fixed seed or randomize for new variations.

This feature generates realistic, high-quality images of your AI companion, reflecting their personality traits and overall character design most of the time.

However, there’s still room for improvement. The AI occasionally produces minor issues with eye rendering or somewhat stiff body positioning, though these are not deal-breakers.

Note: I recommend using the Realistic Original image model — during testing, it produced the best realistic image quality.

Secret Desires AI

Secret Desires AI offers two ways to generate images:

• In-chat image generation: Quickly create images using free-text prompts.
• Dedicated Image Creator: A separate tool that gives you more control and customization

In-chat image works simply: Just type “send me” in chat, followed by the prompt for the image you want to see.

You can only generate SFW images — NSFW content isn’t allowed here.

Note: Works only with characters you created or those shared by other users.

Dedicated Image Creator lets you stay in control:

• Character selection for image generation
• Multiple engines to choose from: Monet, Picasso, DaVinci
• Number of images to generate: 1–64
• Free-text prompt option for maximum customization
• Default preset options: Action, Body, Clothing, Scene, Extras, with lots of presets.

Quality: At first glance, the images look good and could even pass for real photos, but on closer inspection, they’re pixelated.

Quirk: The images don’t match my girl’s main profile picture, and physical inconsistency is definitely an issue.

Video Generation

Soulkyn

Soulkyn’s video tool acts as an image-to-video converter. Select an image, and the editor opens automatically.

Main Features

• Generation Modes: Fast (480p) for quick results or Detailed (720p) for higher quality.
• Extended Duration: Increase video length up to 10 seconds.
• Loop Video: Create seamless looping animations.
• HD Upscale: Enhance resolution up to 1440p for sharper visuals.
• Force End Frame: Set a specific frame as the video’s final image.

Animation Presets

• Preset Selection: Apply up to four presets to guide animation and camera movement.
• Categories: Choose from Effects, Positions, POV, or Softcore/Artistic motion styles.

Prompt Controls

• Text Prompt: Describe the action, movement, or atmosphere you want to generate.
• Prompt Strength: Adjust how closely the AI follows your written description.
• Animation Intensity: Control how dynamic or subtle the motion appears.
• Seed Control: Randomize generation or lock settings for consistent results.

The videos look realistic at first glance, and the animations are generally smooth.

But you'll spot AI quirks - robotic movements that remind you this isn't real footage.

Secret Desires AI

Secret Desires AI turns static photos into videos, using settings almost identical to photo generation, with the added option to set video duration.

The good: These videos look natural. Your AI girlfriend's movements flow smoothly, and her personality stays consistent from photo to video.

Not so good: Video quality isn’t perfect — some pixelation is noticeable, though it’s minor enough not to disrupt the experience.

Voice Generation

Soulkyn

The voice is clear and intelligible, suitable for simple interactions, but it lacks natural warmth and emotional depth, coming across as artificial.

But the robotic undertone is hard to miss — there’s no modulation or emotion, just one flat tone all the way through.

Secret Desires AI

Yes, the voices sound human enough, but every line feels like it’s being read off a teleprompter on fast-forward.

And if you’re hoping for emotional range? Forget it. Whether you’re flirting or just chatting, the delivery stays as flat as week-old soda

Safety & Privacy

Soulkyn

Soulkyn claims to use end-to-end encryption but doesn’t explicitly confirm that chats are encrypted in this way.

The platform stores a wide range of user data — including chat logs and IP addresses — for up to six years after account deletion.

While they won't sell your data without permission, they do share it with service providers, legal teams, and their staff.

Payments appear on your bank statement as “Soulkyn” — which isn’t very discreet.

Secret Desires AI

The app claims your chats are "secure and confidential" - but never explains how.

There's no mention of encryption, and they're not clear about who can access your conversations or how long they keep them.

One clear promise: they won't sell your data to advertisers. But that's where the transparency ends.

During my testing, I couldn't find straight answers about data sharing with third parties like analytics providers or hosting services.

On your bank statement, it just shows as ‘Dover First SDA Hope Food Program Food Pantry’ — pretty discreet
