Best dating websites and AI companions

We go through each dating site and AI companion app: its official offer, its small print and what its users say. You get what it really costs, what the free plan lets you do, and how safe your data is.

Meet real people

Dating sites

Mainstream apps, serious relationships, LGBTQ+ and niche communities. We look at who is really on the site, what you can do without paying, and how easy it is to cancel.

Chat with an AI

AI companions

AI girlfriends, AI boyfriends and character chat. We check how far the free messages go, what tokens really cost, and what happens to your conversations.

Latest reviews

Each review gives the price with the date we checked it, the limits of the free plan and our score out of 10.

Our first reviews are on their way.

How we review

The same four checks for every dating site and every AI companion, before we give a score.

1

We read the official offer

Features, plans and what the free version leaves out, taken from the service itself, not from rumours.

2

We check what users say

App Store, Google Play, Trustpilot and Reddit: we look for what comes back again and again, not one angry review.

3

We read the small print

Privacy policy, cancellation, refunds, age checks: what happens to your data and your money.

4

Nobody pays for a score

Some links earn us a commission. They never change a score or the order of a list.

How Tobines makes money

Some links on Tobines are affiliate links: if you sign up through them, the service pays us a commission, at no extra cost to you. It pays for the time we spend on each review.

A service that pays us more does not get a better score. Read our affiliate disclosure.

Frequently asked questions

Are AI girlfriend apps free?

Most have a free plan or a free trial with a limited number of messages. Pictures, voice messages and long conversations usually need a subscription or tokens. Each review says what the free plan really includes.

Are dating sites safe?

The large ones verify profiles and let you block and report people, but scams still exist. Never send money to someone you have not met, and keep the first conversations inside the app.

How do you choose which services to review?

We start with the services people search for the most, then add the ones readers ask about. A service can’t pay to be reviewed.

Is Tobines for adults only?

Yes. The dating sites and AI companion apps we review are for people aged 18 and over, and so is this site.
