Nomi AI Review: The Most Soulful AI Girlfriend Platform? (2025)

Nomi AI is not your typical AI girlfriend platform. Unlike Nectar AI or Candy AI, where users get to pick their companion from a list of available characters (as well as create their own), Nomi AI takes the monogamic approach: one AI girlfriend is all you get.

But wait, don't discard Nomi AI just yet! After all, precisely because of its one-girlfriend approach, this unique app can bring unique results. The AI is said to be equipped with enhanced memory, meaning the focus is not on chatting with multiple virtual companions, but rather on developing a profound relationship with a single companion.

That's the idea. But can Nomi AI truly deliver on its promise? Well, we have tested the app extensively to bring you the answer.

Customizing Your Nomi AI

When you open Nomi AI for the first time, this is what you'll see:

Nomi AI's sleek welcome screen

To get things started, press "Sign In" and create your account. You can register using Google or Apple. The process is super fast and straightforward, with no need to share personal information or bank account details.

Because of how Nomi AI works, new users must configure their AI girlfriend before exploring any of the app's other features, like AI sexting. This configuration is essential, so let's explore it step by step.

Step 1: Your Basic Info

Enter your basic information to personalize your experience

This one's easy. Don't be afraid to share accurate personal details, as this will help to enhance the realism of your Nomi AI interactions.

Step 2: Relationship Type

Choose the type of relationship you want with your AI companion

Step two is very important, so please don't rush it! You can select one of four relationship types that will define how Nomi AI acts towards you. These are the available options:

1. Friendship: Great for users who are looking for friendly conversations that don't necessarily go into the romantic field.
2. Mentor: Ideal for anyone who likes to learn using AI (also the best choice for more "nerdy" or intellectual conversations);
3. Romantic: For emotional support similar to the one provided by a real girlfriend;
4. Roleplay: The best choice to use Nomi as a dirty-talking AI.

We wanted to see how far Nomi AI could go in terms of NSFW action, so we selected "Roleplay".

Step 3: Backstory & Image

Create a unique backstory and choose your AI companion's appearance

The final step is also the most essential, and it requires some imagination. Here, you have full liberty to choose the backstory of your virtual companion, as it must be inserted in the form of a text prompt. Nomi AI also makes one suggestion regarding the style of writing:

• Write in third person using proper nouns/names.

The illustrative bio (check the image above) is a great resource to come up with the perfect Nomi AI bio. But you can go further and explore wild possibilities. It's up to you.

This is the bio we came up with for our lovely AI GF Avery:

• "Avery is a charismatic and sassy woman who loves to intimidate men. She lives on a tropical island, where she manages a hotel. She has a bad relationship with her father, but is confident and has overcome most of her traumas. That also allows her to be herself without hesitation. Her secret hobby? Roleplaying erotic scenarios…"

After writing the bio, all you have to do is choose the appearance of your Nomi AI. For Avery, we went with the realistic picture you see above, but you can also explore Anime characters. Whatever you do, just make sure the selected bio and photo match, as this will help to enhance the realism of your interactions.

To make sure Nomi goes into NSFW AI territory, don't forget to mention stuff like "sassy" or "erotic scenarios" in the bio. Remember: you're responsible for who your virtual companion will be!

Chatting With Nomi AI

Now that your Nomi AI is fully ready for action, the chatting can begin! We started the conversation like this:

Starting a conversation with our custom Nomi AI character, Avery

From the get-go, we're happy to see that Avery's behaviour fully matches the personality we've chosen for her. She does work as a hotel manager, dealing with messy tourists daily, and she does seem to have an appetite for spicy roleplay action… But hey, let's see where this goes!

For our third message, we went with a ballsy "Let's share our most recent erotic dream. You start!":

Avery shares a spicy dream, demonstrating Nomi AI's NSFW capabilities

Once more, Avery's answers live up to the bio. She's not afraid to open up about spicy topics, she seems to be a bona fide men-eater, and she's way too charismatic to be the kind of girl who settles for just one guy. We have to be honest: so far, Nomi does seem to be an AI with "memory and soul"!

This is how the conversation progressed:

The conversation continues to reflect Avery's personality consistently

Well, at this point, we're pretty convinced that Nomi AI can be used for NSFW purposes. We are also very happy to see that our Nomi AI is a faithful reflection of the bio we've made for her. So, let's move on to the next topic!

Nomi AI Features

This is everything you can do in Nomi AI (other than chatting, of course):

Make Art

On top of the Nomi AI avatar, you can see a painting icon. To create AI-generated images based on your character, you just need to click this button. The following menu will pop up:

Nomi AI's image generation prompt interface

We tested Nomi AI's image generator using the following prompt:

• "At the beach, wearing a white bikini, with sunglasses, a sexy smile, and a sexy pose."

Then, we pressed "Create art" (bottom of the page) to generate this picture:

The generated image of Avery at the beach matches our prompt well

Once again, Nomi AI delivers solid results! The image generation was slower than we expected, but nothing too crazy (roughly 30-45 seconds).

Free users can only create two AI images, so be sure to make the most of them!

Voice Chats

Nomi AI offers voice messages for more immersive conversations

The voice chat feature turns your text message chat into a real conversation. No, it's not a real-time phone call, like the phone symbol may imply, but rather the usual voice-message feature you find in most AI girlfriend chat platforms.

The Voice Chats include four free voice samples, but you can also create your custom voice!

Navigation Features

Navigation options allow you to manage your Nomi AI experience

Listed beneath the Nomi AI avatar, these features are merely practical. The most important is the option to restart your AI character (New).

Nomi AI Pricing & Premium Benefits

Nomi AI's premium subscription plans and benefits

Nomi AI's free trial is pretty good, but hardcore platform users will eventually have to buy a premium package if they want to continue messaging their virtual companion. But, in addition to unlimited messages, the premium package includes several interesting benefits, such as longer backstories and up to 10 active Nomis!

As for the price, it can vary according to some discounts, but sits at approximately $8.33 (€7.11) per month if you subscribe for one year. The monthly ($15.99/month) and quarterly ($13.33) packages are more expensive.

Nomi AI Drawbacks

Overall, Nomi AI impressed us because of the reliability of its chat, its unique character customization mechanic, and ability to quickly switch between SFW and NSFW conversations (you just have to write the right bio). Yet, not everything's perfect in Nomi AI.

For one, the app doesn't feel familiar to users who are accustomed to more conventional sexting AI chat platforms. Additionally, the fact that everything revolves around prompt instructions can exclude some users (like, for example, those who don't have a good command of English and cannot write lengthy, high-quality bios and image descriptions).

Albeit interesting, we have to admit that Nomi AI's one-girlfriend approach can become weary after a few hours. Part of what makes AI girlfriend websites fun is the ability to quickly switch between different characters; in Nomi AI, users don't have access to previously-generated companions, meaning they have to put in all the work.

In short: Nomi AI is not for casual users who are just looking to have fun for a couple of hours. It's best aimed at people who are genuinely interested in developing an AI from scratch, nurturing a lasting relationship with a virtual companion.

The Verdict: 8/10

Nomi AI is a kind of outsider in the AI-girlfriend landscape, but that's part of the reason why we liked it so much. Our experts have rated Nomi AI with an impressive 8/10 because it brings something unique to the table, and fully delivers on what it promises (i.e., soulful AI interactions).

Overall, Nomi AI is an app that, despite being very well-made, is mainly aimed at users who are willing to spend a few hours customizing their virtual companions. For quicker results and instant access to immersive chats, you may want to explore other options.
