AI companion app · prices checked 11/08/2026PromptchanWhere Anime Fantasy Gets Naughty and Visual
Promptchan is an adult AI platform for anime-style and realistic NSFW images, short animated clips and character chat. It suits image fans more than chat seekers, and paid plans start at USD 14.99 a month.
Our free test, 11/08/2026: Our free account reached the most explicit step of the chat with no filter and no Gem cost at all, and a 30-second voice call was free too. The 5 starting Gems paid for exactly two images (2 Gems each); a video costs 14. We found no recurring free top-up, only one-off bonus tasks. Beyond the chat, the free plan also carries the group chat (two figures, no Gems) and chapter one of an interactive story through to its explicit ending; chapter two needs a paid plan, and creating your own character failed on free because the template faces were refused and an own picture costs Gems.
In the provider’s own words
Yes. You get a daily allowance of free Gems to create AI images and chat with AI companions, with no card required.

A free test never gives a calculated score: this is the editors’ first take, counted at 85 % and ranked after every tool we tested on a paid plan.Worth it if you mainly want customisable anime-style or realistic NSFW images and short animated clips, plan to use the web version, and are comfortable paying at least the Premium tier to get a meaningful number of Gems.

Promptchan is a visual-first adult platform built around anime-style and realistic character images, short animated clips and a chat mode that sits alongside them. Where many companion apps centre on long conversations, Promptchan's own pages put the emphasis on generating and customising images. We have not tested Promptchan yet. This is our editors' first take, based on the provider's own pages, the prices we checked on 25 October 2026 and what users report on review sites and forums.
Promptchan scorecard
Every criterion, measured the same way on every tested tool.
Chat is a secondary feature
Promptchan offers chat and roleplay with the characters you generate or pick from its library, and the provider describes separate safe and adult chat modes. Basic AI chat is part of the free tier. Voice calls are not, so anyone who wants to hear a character needs a subscription.
Earlier assessments of the platform describe the chat mode as feeling secondary and sometimes incoherent. That fits how the provider presents the product, with chat as an add-on to the image tools rather than the core. If long, emotionally consistent conversations are what you are after, a dedicated companion app is likely the better fit.
Images and short clips are the core
Image generation is what Promptchan is built for. Alongside still images, it can animate images into short, GIF-like erotic clips, which sets it apart from generators that only produce static pictures. Neither feature is fully available for free, though. AI video and HD/4K images are both excluded from the free tier.
Quality is the recurring question. Variable output quality is listed as a known weakness, and some users report results that do not match what the provider advertises. As with most prompt-driven generators, more specific prompts about hair, mood, lighting and pose generally give the model more to work with, but that does not guarantee consistent results. Satisfied users single out the image editing tools and the range of customisation options.
Promptchan characters
Who you meet.
The template library is the starting point
The platform's main selling point on the character side is a large library of templates. It spans a wide range of anime-style and realistic genres, from fantasy figures to more conventional looks. According to the provider, you can adjust outfit, pose, background and facial expression, and you can also start from scratch with your own prompt.
There is a clear split between free and paid use here. Free users can browse the community gallery and clone what other people have made, but building your own AI characters is reserved for subscribers. In practice, the free tier is enough to look around, while serious customisation means paying.

Three plans, and a free tier that is hard to judge
Promptchan runs on Gems. As checked on 25 October 2026, Plus costs USD 14.99 a month for 100 Gems, Premium costs USD 23.99 a month for 400 Gems and Pro costs USD 33.99 a month for 800 Gems. The jump from Plus to Premium quadruples the Gems for USD 9 more, so Plus looks like the weakest value if you plan to generate regularly. We could not verify annual prices, Gem pack prices or how many Gems each action costs on the website, so the real cost per image or clip is still unclear.
Free users get daily Gems, but the provider does not publish how many or when they reset. On refunds, the provider offers a refund within 30 days of buying a subscription if there was no significant AI usage. Crypto payments are not refundable, and you need to cancel the subscription first.

Promptchan verdict: is it worth it?
For whom it is worth it.
Worth it if you mainly want customisable anime-style or realistic NSFW images and short animated clips, plan to use the web version, and are comfortable paying at least the Premium tier to get a meaningful number of Gems.
- Huge character library
- Can animate images into short, smooth, erotic GIF-like clips
- Massive range of anime-style templates and genres
Not worth it if you want deep, coherent companion chat, expect to judge the output properly before paying, or need predictable costs, since the Gem price per action and the free daily allowance are not published.
- Variable quality
- Chat mode feels secondary and sometimes incoherent
