Memory is the product
I said something small on day two. On day sixteen it came back in passing, not as a party trick. That is the whole pitch. Group chat is the extra: several companions in one thread, each with their own history.
| Nomi | Candy AI | |
|---|---|---|
| Conversation | Follows you, shorter replies | Leads more, longer scenes |
| Memory | Best in this ranking | Fine for a week |
| Images | Exists, not a reason to pick it | Best here |
| Price | Highest of the ranked apps | Lower, more bundled |
How it talks
It waits. Replies are shorter. It rarely hijacks the topic. For a companion you talk with, that is the right default. For a scene you want written for you, it can feel passive.
Where it drops off
Pictures are not competitive. Voice quality jumps around by character. You pay more than Candy AI for a narrower kit. If media is why you are here, read the Candy AI review.
Group chat in practice
Two Nomis in one thread did not collapse into one voice. One used a callback I had only told the other. Slower than Candy. Better manners.
