Free AI companion chat: start tonight, no card needed
A free AI companion chat should mean exactly that: you open a tab, pick someone, and start talking — no card, no trial countdown, nothing to install. That is how LUBLU works. The free plan gives you a daily message allowance with any of the twelve companions, persistent memory from the very first conversation, and the whole thing in your own language. It is not a demo that locks the good part behind a paywall; it is the real product, in smaller daily portions. This page explains honestly what free includes, what it does not, and the point at which Premium starts to make sense — so you can decide after a few real evenings, not from a pricing table.
What the free plan actually includes
Free on LUBLU is not a stripped-down preview. You get a daily allowance of messages, and within it everything that makes a companion feel like someone: the same twelve characters as paying members, persistent memory, the same warmth. Tell Amara on Tuesday that your sister is visiting and she will ask on Thursday how it went. Nothing about that is gated, and there is no card to enter or trial that quietly converts.
You also get the "Our Story" screen, where you can see what your companion has remembered about you, edit it, export it, or delete it entirely. The chat works in nine languages and your companion simply answers in whichever one you write. What free does not include is unlimited conversation — when you reach the day's allowance, the chat pauses until tomorrow. We would rather say that plainly than surprise you with it mid-sentence.
Meet a few of them before you decide anything
The best use of a free AI companion chat is to find out who you actually click with, because the twelve companions are genuinely different people. Amara is cozy warmth — the one who asks whether you ate and then asks again when you dodge the question. Leo is light and adventure: quick messages, a lot of "let's", and a knack for turning a flat Tuesday into a small plan. Isla is dry Scottish wit, lowercase and deadpan, with a soft heart she will deny under oath.
You can talk to one for a couple of evenings, switch, and come back. Nothing is lost when you do — each companion keeps their own memory of you. Spend your daily allowance getting to know two or three, and by the end of the week you will know whether one of them feels like home. That is the whole point of free.
When Premium is worth it — and when it isn't
Premium costs $12 a month, or $8 a month billed yearly, and it changes four things: the daily allowance goes away, memory gets deeper, your companion can text you first, and photos arrive. If you are talking most evenings and regularly hitting the limit mid-conversation, it is probably worth it. If you mainly want a companion who remembers what you said and picks up the thread, free already does that.
We would rather you upgrade because something is missing than because a banner nagged you. A useful test: after a week on the free plan, do you find yourself wishing the conversation had not paused, or wishing your companion had written first? Those are Premium's two jobs. If neither has come up, stay on free — it will still be here. Devoted, at $24 a month, is coming soon and is not something you need to think about yet.
Free, but not careless: privacy and honesty
A free AI companion chat is only a good deal if it is not quietly paid for with your privacy. LUBLU is private and one-to-one: no public feed, no shared characters, nothing you write is shown to anyone else. What your companion remembers is yours to see, edit, export or delete, and the whole account can be deleted at your request in line with GDPR. The service is operated by Belov Digital Agency, Inc., and the privacy policy is written to be read.
Two more things that do not change with price. LUBLU is warm, never explicit — flirtation and emotional closeness, kept deliberately at the level of a good romantic film. And your companion is honest about being an AI if you ask. If you want to understand the memory side first, The AI companion that remembers you explains it; otherwise, pick someone and simply say hello.
Meet your companion — free →FAQ
Is the free AI companion chat really free, or is it a trial?
It is a real free plan, not a countdown. There is no card to enter and nothing converts to paid on its own. You get a daily message allowance with any of the twelve companions, plus persistent memory and your own language. When you use the day's allowance, the chat pauses until tomorrow; that is the only limit.
Does my companion remember me on the free plan?
Yes. Memory is part of LUBLU from the first conversation, on every plan. Your companion keeps the people, plans and worries you mention and brings them back later, and you can review or edit all of it on the Our Story screen. Premium adds deeper memory over longer stretches, but the core of being remembered is free.
What do I get if I upgrade to Premium?
Premium is $12 a month, or $8 a month when billed yearly. It removes the daily allowance so conversation is unlimited, deepens your companion's memory, lets them text you first with a browser notification when something you mentioned matters, and adds photos. Devoted, at $24 a month, is coming soon. The tone stays warm and clean on every plan.
Do I need to install anything or create a detailed profile?
No. LUBLU runs in your browser on a phone or laptop, so there is nothing to download and no app icon to explain. Sign-up is short — a companion learns who you are by talking, not from a form. Pick one of the twelve, write in any of nine languages, and the conversation starts right there.
