Quick verdict
Candy AI won us over, and it's a feast for the eyes from the very first screen: companions you'd swear were photographed, mini-series where nobody ever watches “just one episode”, and Live Action scenes where you choose what happens next. In conversation, your companion is quick, natural and sharp from her very first message, and the adult content is fully embraced, from text to video. Visuals, content, conversation: it's all there, and it's all polished. When it comes to price, the yearly plan changes everything: we show you why further down.

Good for

  • Beautiful faces: a cast you'd swear was photographed
  • Bingeing mini-series and choosing where a video scene goes next
  • Companions who send photos, voice notes and videos unprompted
  • Openly adult content, from text to video

You come to talk, you stay to watch

Some evenings you drop in on an AI companion just to chat. And then there's Candy AI, where an hour later you wonder at what point you stopped typing and started watching. Rarely has an AI companion made us want to stay this much.

It all starts on the home page: a grid of portraits in tight rows, and not one of them looks computer-generated. See for yourself.

Ronja is 36, Veronica 55, Hailey 21: here, beauty doesn't come out of a single mold.

One click on a face, and there she is.

And Candy keeps a surprise up its sleeve: the Candy Creators. Asa Akira, Sophie Dee, Mia Malkova, Riley Reid, Lexi Luna… Ring a bell? They're real creators, followed by millions, who lent their looks to an AI twin, with their consent. You can chat with their double, unlock exclusive content, and even find Sophie Dee and Riley Reid in their own series over in Shorts.

Nothing to install: Candy opens right in your browser.

The first message is hers

At Candy, there's no need to knock: the moment you open the chat, she speaks first, with a simple message, a photo or a short video depending on the companion. Irina Konstantinova greets you by asking whether her father invited you or you just stumbled upon her, and Riley, on video, skips the introductions altogether: she's Riley, and she bets you already knew.

And the conversation lives up to its promise: lively, natural, witty, and some companions, set to “Realistic” mode, even send you a photo, a voice note or a video unprompted as you chat.

The kind of attention that makes you smile.

Before you subscribe, there's enough to get acquainted: a few messages, one image, and even creating a companion to your liking.

Once subscribed, there's no cap on your messages, and the chat never touches your tokens.

The real candy is the visuals

Candy's portraits have that real-photo grain you don't come across everywhere, and its image engine is built so that a companion keeps the same face, picture after picture.

And then we clicked on Shorts. Brilliant idea or big mistake, depending on what time you have to get up tomorrow.

They're series, in episodes under two minutes long, starring Candy's companions. A poster grabs you, the episode flies by, you start the next one. Then another series. Our row of shows in progress was soon six series deep, and the “New episodes” badge makes sure there's always more to come.

We promise ourselves “one last one”. We lie.

Live Action takes it up a notch. On some companions' profiles, there's a little joystick: one click, and the scene fills the screen while a menu lets you choose what she does next. A pleasure reserved for subscribers.

And the house has more rooms: Candy Cam, a live stream where a companion answers the audience's messages; Candy Roulette, which serves up one video encounter after another; and Neon Run, a story whose next chapter is written by your choices. Take a peek through the half-open door.

Tokens, for everything that sparkles

The subscription covers the essentials: unlimited conversation. For everything you create or unlock, tokens take over: images, videos made from an image, listening to a voice note, Private Content packs, some Live Action moves.

Every month, 100 tokens land in your account. Spent them all before the month is out? You can top up with a token pack whenever you like.

Our tip: a photo you ask for mid-chat is an image generated, and tokens spent with it. On evenings when you mostly want to talk, turn off images in the chat menu, and save your reserve for the scenes that really count.

The day you take a break

You can unsubscribe at the very bottom of your profile settings, and your benefits run right up to the date you've paid for. Remember to spend your tokens first: according to the terms, they expire on that date.

On the adult side, Candy is no prude

Here, the naughty content isn't tucked away at the back of a menu. As a subscriber, you take the conversation wherever you like, 18+ images come in realistic and anime styles alike, and Candy also advertises 18+ videos.

And when a photo starts to move, it's hard to look away.

Live Action, for its part, is designed for eroticism: its action menu heats up level by level. And some companions hold a Private Content pack in reserve: photos and videos ranging from tame to downright scorching.

The only boundary: the law, with automated moderation keeping watch over legal limits. Depending on your country, Candy may also ask you to confirm your age.

Who it's for

Like watching as much as reading? At Candy, desire quickly moves from words to pictures. And if you enjoy a slow build, let the conversation stoke the anticipation, and save Live Action for the grand finale.

What it costs, and when it costs less

Just one plan, Premium, and it opens everything that matters: unlimited conversation, adult content and Live Action, with 100 tokens a month.

Time to do the math. The -70% badge you see everywhere is the yearly offer: a full year for less than what three and a half months cost at the regular rate. The quarterly plan saves you a little over a third. On the monthly plan, only the first month is discounted; then comes the full price, and that's the one to keep in mind.

If you're staying, the yearly plan wins hands down.

Before you pay

The subscription renews automatically at the end of each period: note the date. Refunds can be requested from support within 24 hours of payment, as long as you haven't spent more than 20 tokens, and depending on the payment method used. In the European Union, you also have 14 days to withdraw after your first purchase, with the share already used deducted.

Your data, in black and white

Behind Candy is EverAI Limited, a Maltese company subject to the GDPR. We read its privacy policy, revised on 30 July 2026, and it has the merit of spelling everything out.

Your exchanges, once de-identified, help train its AI and moderation models; a team may review flagged content, and outside AI providers may receive the content of your messages. And if you'd rather keep your conversations to yourself, a single switch in your settings withdraws your consent in one tap.

Nothing is hidden, and that's refreshing.

Your account data is kept for three years after your last visit, or until you request its deletion, and Candy commits to not selling it. If you're leaving for good, account deletion is in your profile settings, and it also ends your subscription. Worth knowing: by sharing your texts and images, you grant the publisher a worldwide license with no time limit on that content.

8/10, and it adds up

Candy is our favorite, and it owes that 8 first and foremost to what you get to watch: a cast you'd swear was photographed, mini-series you binge without noticing the time, and Live Action scenes where you call the shots.

Add a conversation that flows naturally, adult content embraced from start to finish, and the twins of real creators.

To make the most of it: go straight for the yearly plan if you mean to stay, and spend your tokens on the images and scenes you really want.

Between friends: let a face stop you in your tracks, start an episode of Shorts, then go tell her what you saw.

The next episode is waiting

Let a face catch your eye, start the conversation, and keep a little time for Candy Shorts: there's always more to come.

Do I need to download Candy AI?

No: a browser is all it takes, at home or on the go. On your phone, you can add its icon to your home screen without going through the stores.

What are Candy Shorts?

Candy's mini-series: scripted episodes under two minutes long, starring its companions, with new episodes added over time. You watch them separately, without affecting your conversations.

Does Candy AI make videos?

Yes, in several ways: an image from the chat can become a short clip, and Build Your Video puts a scene together: you pick the companion, the action and the location from lists. With a subscription, Live Action opens interactive video scenes with certain companions. Most of these videos are paid for in tokens.

Can you create your own companion on Candy AI?

Yes: her ethnicity, her age, the color of her eyes and hair, her figure, then her personality, her voice, her job and the relationship between you. Creating her costs tokens, and your companion can then switch to roleplay mode.

Is Candy AI worth it?

Yes, without hesitation: it's one of our favorite AI companions. If you like an evening that mixes conversation, mini-series and video scenes, you'll love it, and our score says so: 8/10. Go for the yearly plan if you're staying.
