How we test
We do not run a theatrical “153 lab tests” score you cannot reproduce. We do five boring things well:
1. First-party paper
Subscriptions pages, help centers, terms, privacy notices. Dated. Quoted. When EverAI says Premium includes 100 tokens, that sentence goes in the review with the date it was fetched.
2. Checkout arithmetic
Monthly vs quarterly vs annual. What is billed up front. What auto-renews. Token/chip/XOT/Neuron packs and the per-action rates independent paid testers published in 2026.
3. Company records
Malta C107181 for Candy. Hello World SAS (Paris 838 199 917) and Tech World B.V. (Doetinchem) for LuckyCrush. Estonia, Cyprus, and billing descriptors where we can find them.
4. Demand + complaints
Google Ads search volume (US) so we know which questions are real. Trustpilot and forum piles for LuckyCrush-style products, sampled, not averaged into fake precision.
Full protocol: methodology. We will be wrong when a vendor changes a price overnight. Checkout always wins.
2026 comparison
Columns are the ones that change a buying decision. “Uncensored” means adult fiction/live adult is in-product — never “no law, no policy.”

Which of the six, in one screen
Two jobs. Do not mix them.
Generated companion. You want a character you built, a pause button, and stills or short clips. Start at Candy AI (cheapest chat seat, 100-token media meter). Switch to Xotic if you want printed per-action rates, Joi if the product is 5-second clips, Lovescape if you want anime or a heavier video stack, FantasyGF if the tone is fantasy and checkout lists crypto.
Live 1v1. You want a stranger on a camera now, opposite gender, skip key, about a dollar a minute after a trial. That is LuckyCrush. It is not an AI girlfriend. Candy will not skip you in four seconds; LuckyCrush will not remember your sister’s name.
Scores are this desk’s, out of 10, from checkout math and first-party paper — not a user-star average. Last pass on the table: 1 September 2026. Checkout always wins if a vendor moved a price overnight. Visit buttons on the long reviews go to the official product via /go/. We do not host logins.
