Quick verdict.
GoLove wins overall (9.5 vs 8.5) — better free tier, deeper customization, lower real cost. Candy AI wins on photoreal image quality alone — but pay $25-30/mo realistic instead of GoLove's $4.15.
Pick GoLove if:
- You want a real free tier — not 5-message bait
- Image quality is "close enough" rather than non-negotiable
- You want to spend $4.15/mo or zero, not $25-30
- Customization depth matters (personality, kinks, body, voice)
- You'd rather have 300+ companions than 100+
Pick Candy AI if:
- Photoreal image quality is non-negotiable
- Budget for $25-30/mo isn't a concern
- You prefer token economies over flat pricing
- Image generation is your primary use case
- You want the absolute best image output regardless of cost
