My first impression of MyLovely AI was that its homepage actually looked different from most AI companion platforms. It uses a dark, orange and cinematic style, with a large moving visual instead of another basic grid of characters above the fold.
During my test, I could chat with some gorgeous AI characters for free. The limit appeared as soon as I asked for a photo: the image was blurred and MyLovely asked me to unlock it. It is not a deal-breaker, but it is worth mentioning because apps such as Candy AI or Xotic AI sometimes let you see slightly spicier content before you pay.
My MyLovely AI review in 30 seconds
| Point | My take |
|---|---|
| Best for | Adults who want to create a realistic AI girlfriend and care strongly about image and video quality |
| What I liked | The genuinely distinctive design, the detailed character creator and, above all, some gallery videos that looked remarkably realistic |
| What held it back | The paywall appeared immediately when I requested a photo in chat, while a few competitors reveal more adult content for free |
| Free chat | Yes for chatting and exploring characters; private media is much more restricted |
| Verified price | Premium is officially advertised from $12.99/month and Premium Plus at $19.99/month; my screenshot also showed a temporary annual deal displayed as $6/month |
| Quick verdict | A visually impressive surprise, especially for video, but the free experience quickly feels limited if photos are your priority |
Transparency: this review is based on my hands-on test, the screenshots I took, MyLovely AI’s official pages and Réalité Virtuelle’s review as an external point of comparison. I did not test multi-day memory, calls, renewals or refunds.
My advice: try the chat and browse the gallery before paying. You will quickly see whether the visual quality makes the paywall worthwhile for you.
A homepage that does not look like every other AI app
Many AI girlfriend platforms settle for a black background, a few character cards and a Create button. MyLovely uses some of the same ingredients but presents them differently. The large beach visual, promotional banner, animation and orange contrast give the product a real identity.
I also found the navigation straightforward: Create, Characters, Chats, Gallery and Premium. I immediately knew where to begin. The site does continuously promote discounts of up to 70%, though. I treat this as a temporary offer, not the standard price.
Ready-made realistic and anime characters
The character gallery mixes realistic profiles with anime options. I can filter by appearance or archetype, then open a profile with a name, age and short biography. It is a convenient way to start immediately without completing the full creator.
MyLovely AI chat: enjoyable to try, but photos are locked quickly
I started a conversation with Olivia Martínez. The chat is easy to read, with suggested replies and the character profile open in a side panel. I could also see call and video icons, but I did not test them, so I cannot confirm their availability for every plan or character.
The key moment in my test was much simpler. I asked for a photo and MyLovely responded, but the image remained blurred behind an unlock button. In other words, free chat gives me a decent feel for the character, but not for private visual content.
I think that limit is acceptable if you first want to judge the conversation. It is more frustrating when visual NSFW content is your main goal. In that case, my Candy AI review or my Xotic AI review may be better comparisons for free access.
Worth knowing: chat is the best way to test MyLovely for free, but do not expect it to reveal private photos without payment.
Creating your own AI girlfriend: five steps and plenty of detail
The creator is one of the strongest parts of the platform. MyLovely splits the process into five stages: identity, appearance, physique, personality and final review. It feels much more guided than typing a short prompt into a box.
I begin by choosing the visual style. Realism, semi-realism and anime are available, while options such as Sketch carry a Pro badge. That is helpful because I can see early on which choices may require a subscription.
Appearance, age, hair and body type
The appearance section lets me select a visual ethnicity, an age between 18 and 65, eye color, hair color and hairstyle. The physique stage goes further with several body types and adult settings. I chose not to include the most explicit screenshots in this review.
This level of detail makes creation enjoyable. The trade-off is that I have to work through several screens before seeing the final result. If you prefer describing a character in one sentence, this workflow may feel a little long.
A personality that goes beyond kind or shy
I can then choose hobbies, an occupation, relationship type, archetype and up to five personality traits. Options include reading, travel, sport, cooking, a romantic relationship and archetypes such as elegant, cute, mature or adventurous.
The final stage summarizes the identity, generated background and all selected traits. It is a thoughtful way to catch an inconsistency before final creation. I did not run a long-term test, however, so I cannot say how strongly every trait affects the character’s memory over time.
Images and videos: the gallery is MyLovely’s real selling point
The gallery impressed me more than the chat. Some videos looked genuinely realistic, with movement and rendering that felt less like a typical AI animation. This was the feature that made MyLovely stand out most during my test.
The platform also offers image and video generation based on a character. Réalité Virtuelle’s article mentions several image formats, a negative prompt and advanced settings. I did not verify every one of those controls in my own account, so I am treating them as features reported by that source rather than as part of my direct experience.
Private galleries are clearly monetized. My screenshot showed two choices: Premium at $19.99/month or a one-time unlock for 50 tokens. My displayed balance was only five tokens, so I could not open it without buying or earning more.
Who may find it worthwhile: mainly someone who wants realistic videos and prefers keeping the same character across chat and generated media.
MyLovely AI pricing: watch the promotions and renewal terms
The pricing requires some attention because different screens show different offers. The official site currently advertises Premium from $12.99/month and Premium Plus at $19.99/month, with longer billing periods available. During my test, a promotional screen displayed Premium Plus as $6/month, billed at $71.96 for one year, with 450 tokens each month. It also offered two days of trial access for $2.99.
I would never present $6 as the permanent price. It is an annual discount marked Save 70%. The actual charge is annual, not monthly. The $19.99 private-gallery screen also confirms that the standard monthly cost can be much higher.
| Observed option | Price | My takeaway |
|---|---|---|
| Starter | $0 | Free chat and browsing, but private photos are locked quickly |
| Premium | From $12.99/month on the official site | Current entry price, which may vary by term and region |
| Monthly Premium Plus | $19.99/month | Price shown for private gallery access and advertised by the official site |
| Observed annual promotion | $71.96/year, displayed as $6/month | Annual billing and a temporary promotion, not a permanent monthly price |
| Trial access | $2.99 for two days | Short access period; check the renewal terms at checkout |
| Private gallery | 50 tokens | One-time unlock for one character gallery |
The official terms say subscriptions automatically renew for the same period unless cancelled before the renewal date. Access continues until the end of the paid term. European consumers may have a withdrawal right, but immediate access to features or credits can affect it. This is general information, not legal advice.
Privacy and safety: what to know before an intimate chat
MyLovely is operated by PROMPTREPUBLIC S.L. in Spain and is intended only for adults aged 18 or older. Its privacy policy says the platform collects information including email addresses, messages, prompts, generated outputs, preferences, IP addresses, technical information and payment metadata.
Chats and generated content may be processed to provide the service, support moderation and improve models. For European users, MyLovely offers an email opt-out from model improvement using the subject “Model Improvement Opt-Out.” The policy also says account data and logs may be kept for the life of the account and potentially three to five years after the last activity, unless deletion is requested sooner.
