Best AI Boyfriend App is free to read. To pay for running the site, we participate in affiliate programs. This page explains what that means for you, in line with the US Federal Trade Commission’s guidance on endorsements and testimonials.
The short version
Some of the links on this site are affiliate links. If you click one and then sign up for or buy a subscription, the app’s company may pay us a commission. This doesn’t cost you anything extra. The price you pay is the same whether or not you use our link.
Commissions never decide which apps we recommend, how we score them, or where they rank.
Which links are affiliate links
Links that take you to an app’s website or sign-up page, such as “Visit” buttons, call-to-action buttons and links in comparison tables, may be affiliate links. Many of these go through a redirect on our own site (addresses beginning with /go/) before reaching the app. We mark these outbound links as sponsored in our code, as search engines recommend.
Not every outbound link earns us money. Several apps we review don’t have affiliate programs, or we don’t participate in them, and we link to those apps anyway when it helps you.
Links to other pages on this site, like our reviews and guides, are never affiliate links.
How we keep recommendations independent
- Same criteria for every app. Each app is scored with the same five weighted factors described on our how we test page, regardless of whether it pays us.
- Non-paying apps rank on merit. Apps such as Kindroid, Character AI, Replika and SpicyChat don’t pay us anything and still appear high in our rankings, some above apps that do.
- No paid placements. We don’t accept payment for reviews, rankings, higher scores or favorable coverage.
- Honest alternatives. When we suggest an alternative to an app, we pick the one that genuinely fits the need, such as better memory, lower cost or stronger privacy.
- We report the downsides. Affiliate partners get the same scrutiny of pricing, token systems, privacy and safety as everyone else.
Disclosure on every page
Pages that may contain affiliate links carry a short notice near the top that links back to this page. If you have any doubt about whether a specific link is an affiliate link, assume it may be.
Free products and access
If an app ever gives us free or discounted access for review purposes, we’ll say so in that review. Free access doesn’t change how we score an app.
