Paradot AI vs Selfie

Paradot AI is a chat companion service for companionship and entertainment, built around fictional, software-generated characters. Companions can retain details such as a person's name, job, birthday, or plans and bring them up in later conversations. Users can customize appearance, personality, interests, humor, affection, and message length. The service describes text chat, voice messages, and replies in a chosen tone, and it is available on Android, iOS, macOS, web, and Windows. Plus costs $9/mo and includes unlimited messages, three companions, full long-term memory, and voice notes. Infinite costs $19/mo and adds unlimited companions, priority replies, and early features. Paradot says chats are encrypted in transit and at rest and are not sold, rented, or traded to third parties for advertising. Account data remains while an account is active, and deleted-account backups are purged on a rolling schedule of no more than 90 days. The service is for adults and is not therapy, counselling, or crisis support.

Selfie is a social network built around AI twins: profiles that answer questions in their owner’s voice from material the owner provides. Users can create a twin from social accounts, photos, documents, links, text, and other content. The creator page names Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, X, podcasts, and writing as sources. A Selfie can respond while its owner is offline, with persistent memory and extensive customization. The Free plan costs nothing and lets users create a Selfie without a follower minimum. Creators set subscriber prices from $1 to $1,000 per month and keep 75% of subscription revenue. Fans can tip $2, $5, $10, or $25, with creators retaining 75%. Profile merchandise returns 95% before card processing. Payouts use Stripe after identity verification. Selfie runs on iOS and the web, and users must be at least 18.
