About Us — Independent AI Companion Reviews You Can Trust

This is an independent affiliate review site focused exclusively on AI companion and AI girlfriend platforms. We are not affiliated with, operated by, or funded by any platform we review. Our business model is affiliate marketing — we earn commissions when readers subscribe through our links — and this relationship is disclosed on every page that contains affiliate links.

We publish this disclosure prominently because it is relevant to how you read our work.


Our Review Methodology

Every platform review on this site is based on hands-on testing. We do not publish reviews based on press releases, vendor-provided information, or screenshots from other sites.

Testing standards:

  • Each platform is tested for a minimum of 2–4 weeks before a review is published
  • We create accounts at every tier — including paid tiers — so we can evaluate what subscribers actually receive
  • Testing covers: chat quality, image generation, voice features, memory system, pricing accuracy, payment processing, and user interface
  • All pricing data is verified directly on official platform websites, not through third-party summaries
  • We include a "last verified" date on all pricing and feature information

Scoring methodology: We use a standardized evaluation rubric applied consistently across all platforms. Categories include chat quality, image generation, voice, safety and privacy, pricing value, and user experience. The same rubric is used for every platform, enabling direct comparisons between review scores.


Editorial Independence & Affiliate Disclosure

We earn affiliate commissions through referral links to reviewed platforms. This is how this site generates revenue. We disclose this relationship in accordance with FTC guidelines on affiliate marketing and our own commitment to transparency.

What our affiliate relationships do not influence:

  • Review scores — negative findings are published regardless of affiliate relationship value
  • Recommendation order — platforms are ranked by our editorial assessment, not commission rate
  • Editorial content — we do not accept payment for favorable reviews or suppress critical findings

Our review of GirlfriendGPT, for example, includes documented concerns about 6-year data retention, limited Trustpilot presence, and image consistency weaknesses. These are published because they are true and relevant to readers, not because they benefit or harm our affiliate relationship.

Contact & Corrections

We publish time-sensitive information — pricing, platform features, and safety data change. When platforms update their products, our reviews may temporarily contain outdated information.

Correction policy: Factual errors are corrected within 48 hours of notification. If you identify incorrect pricing, feature descriptions, or factual claims, contact us at the email address listed below and we will investigate and correct promptly.

Feedback and suggestions: We welcome platform suggestions for future review. If you have tested an AI companion platform and believe it warrants coverage, contact us with the platform name and your experience.
