The Best AI Boyfriend Apps in 2026

Most AI companion apps were built for men looking for a girlfriend. Several now offer men as well. They mean different things by it: a section of ready-made men, a gender setting on a character you build or a sea of bots other users wrote.

This list sorts them by what you want from him. One disclosure first: myVirtual.love is on the list and this is our site. Every figure about a rival comes from that rival's own pricing page, help centre or terms, checked on 1 October 2026 unless a different date is given. Where a rival beats us, the list says so.

The short answer

How we sorted them

Four questions decide most of it. Does the app treat men as a real category or only as a setting? How explicit can chat and pictures get? Can you call him? What does it cost on the app's own pricing page, as opposed to a review site's?

myVirtual.love

Our Guys page holds 71 men, 41 realistic and 30 anime, aged 21 to 52. You can pick one or build your own on the Create screen, where a man gets fields of his own: facial hair from stubble to a full beard, a body type from skinny to muscular or heavyset, a Relationship card with Boyfriend and Husband on it and a Kinks card that runs in both directions. Building him and chatting with him are both free.

On Premium and Maxxx, chat is unlimited and never costs hearts. You can call him at 5 hearts a minute. Photos cost 5 hearts, or 8 at High quality. The Studio lets you set the scene, the camera and the shape of the frame. Premium is €9.90 a month with 100 hearts, or €35.88 a year (€2.99 a month) with 150 hearts a month. Maxxx is €24.90 a month with 200 hearts or €89.88 a year with 300 a month, as our pricing page shows.

The catch: fewer pictures for the money than OurDream, no video on any plan and a roster in the dozens where SpicyChat's users have written bots in the hundreds of thousands.

Best for: someone who wants one specific man, down to his age and his beard, with photos of him and as much conversation as they like. How to Make Your Own AI Boyfriend walks through the build.

Candy.ai

Candy has an AI Boyfriend section with realistic and anime men and its own boyfriend generator. Its page promises that he sends selfies and audio messages. Subscriptions include 18+ images and videos, unlimited text messages and 100 tokens a month, which pay for the media.

Plans on its subscriptions page: €13.99 for a month, €8.99 a month on the 3-month plan or €3.99 a month on the 12-month plan (€47.88 upfront), plus weekly (€5.60) and biweekly (€9.79) options.

The catch: pictures, voice and video all draw on the same 100 tokens. Read the renewal terms on the short cadences before choosing one.

Best for: someone who wants a large adult platform with video alongside photos.

OurDream

OurDream has an AI boyfriend section and lets you build men with the same customisation as women. Its own cost guide puts the numbers in coins: an annual plan at $9.99 a month ($119.88 a year) brings 1,000 coins every month, a picture costs 5 coins, a voice call 50 coins a minute and video 100 coins per 5 seconds.

The catch: coins also pay for chat on its Genius models, at 1 coin a response, so talking and pictures share one pot.

Best for: volume. A month of coins buys up to 200 pictures, against 30 on our annual Premium.

SpicyChat

SpicyChat's men are written by its users. There are a great many of them. On 1 October 2026 its tag filter showed 212,070 bots tagged Male against 101,855 tagged Female. Its plans, shown to us in euros: Get a Taste at €5.95 a month, True Supporter at €19.95 with unlimited in-chat images and Im All In at €29.95, which adds voice replies. Paying annually saves 17%.

The catch: quality varies from bot to bot, because each one is a stranger's writing. Voice means hearing his replies read aloud rather than a call.

Best for: text roleplay with endless variety, for someone happy to try ten bots to find one.

Kindroid

Kindroid lets you build a male companion and choose his name, personality, backstory, look and voice. He can send selfies and short video selfies. You can take voice and video calls with him. Its help centre lists $13.99 a month or $139.99 a year on the web, $15.99 or $159.99 in the apps.

The catch: calls are metered. Each minute uses 400 credits from a monthly allowance of 1,000,000 audio characters (about 1,000 minutes) and unused credits do not carry over. Its terms say nothing either way about adult content, so test before you commit.

Best for: someone who wants to talk to him out loud and on video, often.

Nomi

Nomi markets itself for "an AI friend, girlfriend, boyfriend, fantasy partner" and is built around memory. In September 2026 it cost $15.99 a month or $99.99 a year, with unlimited voice chat and calls.

The catch: pictures. When we asked a Nomi on a free account for something hotter than a dress, the photo came back in a dress. Whether a paid plan changes that is not something we have confirmed.

Best for: a long-running relationship in text and voice, where pictures are a side feature.

Replika

You can make your Replika male. Its help centre says romantic statuses such as boyfriend unlock with Replika Pro. Prices are shown inside the app rather than on its website.

The catch: adult roleplay is closed to accounts created after February 2023.

Best for: emotional companionship with no sexual content.

Character.AI

Users have written male characters of every kind, from fandom heroes to originals. Character.AI is safe for work only. Its open-ended chat has been closed to under-18s since November 2025.

The catch: no explicit content at any price.

Best for: fans who want to talk to a version of a character from something they love and do not need it to go further.

Left off the list

Secrets.ai and Swipey market girlfriends only, with no men on their homepages. EVA AI's terms ban explicit content, which rules it out for most readers of this list. Grok's male companion went with its 3D companions on 1 September, as Grok Companions Removed explains.

How to choose

• If pictures matter most, compare what a month buys rather than the headline price. OurDream wins on volume; Candy and myVirtual.love trade fewer pictures for other things.
• If his voice matters most, Kindroid and Nomi are built around calls. On myVirtual.love calls come out of the same hearts as photos.
• If you want to design him yourself, check how many fields a man actually gets. A gender switch on a women's form is not the same as a men's builder.

If what you want is a man built to your taste, with photos of him and conversation that never runs out, myVirtual.love is built for exactly that. Building him costs nothing.
