What Replika is
Replika is a personal AI companion chatbot with text and voice interfaces on Android, iOS, and the web. It can retain profile details, interests, preferences, and information about people or pets mentioned in conversations. Users can customize the companion’s avatar and profile, and the service offers calls and selfies. Paid plans add features such as voice messaging and background calls; other plan features include premium activities, image generation, video recognition, and training options. Subscription prices are shown in the app’s subscription screens and relevant store, and subscriptions renew automatically until canceled. The free plan offers limited access, which Replika may deny at its discretion. Replika says it does not use or disclose conversation content for marketing or advertising. Conversation data is sent to third-party AI language model providers to generate replies, and the privacy policy says those providers may not use it to train their own models.
