The good and the not-so-good
Beau
What’s good
- Built only for an AI boyfriend, so every feature is about that relationship.
- Realistic photos of him on request, made from his portrait so it’s the same face every time.
- Long-term memory on every plan, including free.
- Always safe for work: you can open it anywhere.
- One simple price ($9.99/month) and no ads, even on the free plan.
- Works in any phone or computer browser, nothing to install.
What’s not
- No voice messages or calls yet; it’s text and photos.
- No App Store or Google Play app, and no push notifications yet.
- The free plan is capped at 25 messages and 2 photos a day.
- One-on-one only: no group chats.
- Looks are chosen from set options rather than drawn or uploaded.
- A new app, so there’s no big community or character library.
Kindroid
What’s good
- Deep customisation: backstory, key memories, example messages and directives.
- A layered, configurable memory system.
- Voice messages, voice calls and video calls, with custom voices.
- Photo, video and group selfies.
- Group chats and shared Rooms.
- Apps for iPhone and Android, plus the web.
What’s not
- No ongoing free plan: after a one-time preview the account becomes read-only.
- The trial needs a payment method and converts to a paid plan.
- Standard is $15.99 a month on the US App Store, with Ultra ($28.99) and MAX ($68.99) add-ons.
- Flagged users may need to verify their age with a selfie or ID.
- App Store reviewers mention memory slips and repetitive phrasing.
Why people look for a Kindroid alternative
- Kindroid has no ongoing free plan: after a one-time preview the account becomes read-only, and the trial needs a payment method.
- Add-ons (Ultra, MAX) on top of the base subscription can raise the monthly cost well above the base price.
- Its permissive adult-content policy suits some users more than others.

Pricing compared
Beau has two plans. Free gives you one companion, 25 messages and 2 photos a day, every day, with no card. Premium is $9.99 a month.
Kindroid has a one-time free preview (50 messages and 5 selfies), then a subscription. The US App Store lists $15.99 a month, $42.99 for three months or $159.99 a year, plus Ultra ($28.99) and MAX ($68.99) add-ons. Kindroid says web prices are usually lower.
Free every day, not just a preview
Beau’s free plan has daily limits (25 messages and 2 photos) but no end date, and no card is needed to start.
Simple by design
Instead of directives and memory settings, Beau keeps notes about you automatically and stays in the character you described.
Switching from Kindroid to Beau
- Note what you like about your Kindroid companion: how he talks, his backstory, the things he knows about you.
- Make a free Beau account (18+, no card needed).
- Design him: pick his looks, choose up to four traits, and paste in how he talks and his backstory.
- Paste his key memories into your first chat. Beau keeps notes from there.
- Ask for a photo from his day to see him; you can make a new portrait from the chat menu.
When Kindroid is the better choice
Stay with Kindroid if you want fine control over memory and directives, custom voices, or video calls, and you’re happy to pay a subscription.
