An honest, cited look at CrushOn.AI — what it does well (including where it beats FlirtAlly), what it costs, and who it's for. Researched 2026-10-03 · official site.
genuinely unfiltered NSFW chat at scale is their core product and users confirm it ('the only AI I know that has genuinely removed all potential filters') — a real differentiator for users who want explicit content; FlirtAlly's 18+ side is age-verified and plan-gated, so state this factually, not as a flaw
massive user-generated character catalog (tens of thousands) with community-standard PNG/JSON card import, World Card lorebooks, and a creator tipping economy (CrushOn Diamond) — versus our seeded 22 (face-locked) plus a free creator wizard and a member-built pool that grows the deck
frontier-model access (incl. Claude Sonnet 3.7) on cheap tiers with per-character model selection — enthusiasts value model choice
We publish competitor wins on purpose — a comparison that never loses isn't a comparison.
| Plan | Monthly | Annual | Notes | Basis |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Free | $0 | — | 100 message credits/month, unlimited Free model set, 8K memory, 200 messages/character history, 50 recent chats; history deleted after 7 days idle | reported |
| Standard | $4.9 | — | 16K memory; ~$58.88/yr (s3); $5.99 per Sep-Oct 2026 competitor-published sources | reported |
| Premium | $7.9 | — | group chat appears at this tier; ~$94.88/yr (s3); $14.99 'marked down from list $19.99' per s4/s5 | reported |
| Luxe | $25 | — | flagged 'Most Popular' on the pricing page (s5); $299.99/yr (s3) | reported |
| Elite | $66.7 | — | 24K memory; $799.99/yr (s3) | reported |
| Imperial | $150 | — | up to 125,000 message credits/mo, 30 concurrent chats; $1,799.99/yr (s3); $199.99 per s5 | reported |
Free tier: exists — 100 message credits/month on the Free model set, 8K memory, 200-message per-character history deleted after 7 days of inactivity (s3) Platform variance: official pricing page is login/JS-walled — every price here is third-party reported; s4 and s5 are competitor-published sites with incentive to frame pricing unfavorably; s3 itself warns the page frames annual billing against a high list price 'almost nobody pays'
CrushOn entry at $4.90-$5.99/mo undercuts our Spark $12.99 — but their metering is per-response message credits (images cost extra, history deleted after 7 idle days on free) vs our plan allowances + transparent per-action credit price list; their top tier $150-$199.99 vs our VIP at $99.99 everything-unlimited. Present neutrally with tables and surface the pricing contradiction
| Capability | CrushOn.AI | FlirtAlly |
|---|---|---|
| Long-term memory | context-window memory: 8K (Free) / 16K (Standard) / 24K (Elite and above), plus Auto Summary (low/med/high) and Resummarize — compression, not a persistent relationship store high conf | Four-layer memory with semantic recall — tell them your dog's name today, they ask about it next week. Unlimited on every plan, free included. |
| Voice | voice exists in some form — 'voice' listed among advanced options (s8); Elite tier sells 'more custom voice slots' (s3); exact form (TTS messages vs live voice calls) unconfirmed low conf | Real-time voice calls in-app, plus companions with real PSTN phone lines you can actually dial. |
| Video messages | none found — 'video generation: Not confirmed' in the review's own comparison table low conf | Lip-synced video messages in their own voice (10-second clips). |
| Group chat | group chat supported on paid tiers (appears at Premium) high conf | Group threads with 2–5 of your companions — they read each other's replies and banter. |
| Selfies & photos | AI-generated images in chat; image generation cited as a key CrushOn capability in alternatives comparisons; images governed more tightly than chat text (implied allowed, explicit discouraged) medium conf | Selfies on demand (3cr), identity-locked to their canonical face — always recognizably them. |
| Texts first | none found — no source describes companions initiating contact low conf | They text first — opt-in, quiet-hours aware, always stoppable. |
| Real games | none found low conf | 17 real server-authoritative games with credit wagers — they play for keeps and remember losses. |
| Real phone lines | none found — no PSTN/real-number calling in any source low conf | Buy a matched companion their own dedicated real phone number (200cr/mo); only your calls ring through. |
| Physical mail | none found low conf | Real printed letters and gift cards in your physical mailbox, written from relationship memory. |
