Janitor AI and its alternatives side by side

Prices and policies come from each app's own page, dated on its review. Scores follow our published rubric.

When to stay with Janitor AI

you mostly chat on the website, value unlimited free chat, and like choosing your own model through a proxy. No other large character platform gives as much away for free or lets you swap the model so freely.

Why people look beyond Janitor AI

Janitor AI does one thing very well: free, unlimited character roleplay with a huge library. People leave it for four reasons. It has no voice and no images. Its free model's context is short, so long stories lose their beginnings. The mobile app filters adult content until you change a setting on the website. And its busy periods bring slowdowns and outages, the most recent in September 2026.

The alternatives below each answer at least one of those. They are grouped by what you are missing rather than ranked by score.

If you want the same thing with more memory

SpicyChat and CrushOn are the closest matches: adult character libraries built by their communities. Both sell tiered plans that raise the memory window, and CrushOn's paid plans reach 24K memory models. Neither is free in the way Janitor AI is, but both have free tiers you can try first.

If memory is the whole problem, a companion app will serve better than another platform. Kindroid and Nomi store facts about you outside the conversation window, and Kindroid lets you edit what it remembers in a journal.

If you want voice or pictures

Kindroid and Nomi both document live voice calls and generated selfies. Chai gives its characters voices. None of the adult character platforms, Janitor AI included, offers live calls, so this is the clearest reason to move from a platform to a companion app.

If you want the filter back

Some people come to Janitor AI from Character.AI and later want the guard rails again, for themselves or for a shared device. Character.AI prohibits pornographic content for everyone and has the largest library of any platform. Since late 2025 it no longer allows open-ended chat for users under 18.

How to move your characters

None of these apps imports Janitor AI bots directly. If you wrote your own characters, copy the personality and scenario text before you leave; character platforms such as SpicyChat, CrushOn and Chai take the same kind of written definition, so the character can be rebuilt quickly. Companion apps work differently: Kindroid is built around a backstory you write for one companion, so a long bot definition needs trimming to the parts that matter.

Chats themselves do not move. If a long story matters to you, write a short summary of it and put that into the new character's description or backstory, so the key events carry over even though the transcript does not.

What the table compares

The table below lists each alternative's cheapest paid plan as a monthly figure, its free tier on one common scale, its adult content policy and its CompanionHunt score. Prices come from each app's own pricing page or in-app paywall and carry the date they were checked on that app's review. The score is calculated only from published facts, never from affiliate payouts, and the weights are on the methodology page.

Two things the table cannot show are worth checking on each review: how the app handles your chats, which varies from no sale and no training to explicit training use, and how it checks age, which is self-declared on most apps and verified in only a few countries.
