Detailed Review
Candy.ai combines text chat with voice, AI-generated images and video and a library of over 100 pre-built characters, alongside tools to build a custom one. That multimodal range — voice and video together, not just images — is broader than most of this category, Selira included, and matched here only by Xeve.ai and MyLovely AI.
It is operated by EverAI Limited, registered in Malta, so conversations sit under EU jurisdiction with Maltese courts named in the terms of service for disputes. Malta is a full EU member state, which puts Candy.ai alongside the intra-EEA operators here rather than the Swiss adequacy case.
There is a free trial capped at 5 messages, after which access runs on monthly, quarterly or yearly subscriptions with a monthly token allowance for images and voice notes; the site does not publish the actual amounts before checkout, so budget-conscious users will need to check pricing at checkout rather than on the marketing page. As with every operator here, read the retention and model-training sections of the privacy policy before committing a card.
