Secrets.AI is a multimedia AI companion platform with Private Mode E2E encryption and AI training opt-out (rare in this category). Three tiers: Free (20 messages/day), Premium ($19.99/mo or $13.33/mo annual, 8,000 Moments), Ultimate ($39.99/mo or $26.67/mo annual, 15,000 Moments). Group Chats (2-3 companions) and Personas are Ultimate-only features. Published tier metrics include memory multipliers, context length boosts, and previous-conversation recall percentages.
β What We Like
βPrivate Mode encrypts conversations end-to-end and opts out of AI training (strongest documented privacy posture in audited category)
βPublished tier metrics: 4x/6x memory access, +60%/+100% context length, ~67%/+100% previous-conversation recall (rare transparency)
βGroup Chats with 2-3 AI companions on Ultimate (unique structural feature in audited category)
βPersonas allow identity-switching for roleplay scenarios (Ultimate-only feature)
βFree tier provides 20 messages/day for evaluation before commitment
βFour billing cycles documented (monthly / quarterly / biannual / annual) with progressive effective-rate reduction
βMid-cycle tier upgrades take effect immediately with prorated credit for unused time
βPayment method variety: cards (no Amex), virtual debit cards, cryptocurrency with $20 minimum
β Could Be Better
βNot in May 2026 nine-app pricing audit; pricing here is from vendor wiki rather than vendor-checkout verified
βUltimate tier at $39.99/month is the most expensive in the audited category (excluding enterprise tiers)
βOperator entity (registered company) not surfaced in vendor public documentation
βLite tier was removed for new users on January 30, 2026, establishing tier-restructure precedent
βMoments are the real media cost driver; unlimited messaging does not extend to image/video/audio generation
βMonthly Moments grant resets; unused grant Moments do not roll over indefinitely
βCrypto $20 minimum threshold complicates small subscription payments via cryptocurrency
βAmerican Express cards are not accepted (Visa/Mastercard/virtual debit/crypto only)
π― Bottom Line
Secrets.AI is the AI companion app with the strongest documented privacy posture in the audited category. Its Private Mode encrypts conversations end-to-end and prevents those conversations from being used for AI training, which is rare in this product type. Tier structure is three steps: Free (20 messages/day cap) / Premium ($19.99/month or $13.33/month annual, with 8,000 Moments) / Ultimate ($39.99/month or $26.67/month annual, with 15,000 Moments). The product also publishes unusually concrete metrics for memory and recall: Premium gives 4x memory access with about 67% previous-conversation recall, Ultimate gives 6x with +100% recall, and Group Chats (2-3 companions) plus Personas sit on the Ultimate tier only. Secrets.AI was not part of the May 2026 nine-app vendor-checkout audit, so the pricing below comes from the official vendor wiki rather than a live audit verification.
What Secrets.AI actually is
Secrets.AI is a multimedia AI companion platform where chat is the core interaction and image, video, and audio features sit on a credit-based currency called Moments. The internal currency model is similar to OurDream.AI’s DreamCoins, Joi’s Neurons, and the DreamAI SRL family’s tokens, with the difference that Secrets.AI structures access as a three-tier ladder where the Moments allocation grows with the tier rather than running on a single subscription level with separate token packs.
The product is documented in detail in the vendor’s public wiki, which is unusual for this category. Most competitors publish marketing pages with selective feature lists; Secrets.AI publishes explicit tier multipliers, recall percentages, and feature gates. This documentation transparency is a distinguishing positive even before considering the Private Mode privacy positioning.
Private Mode (the central privacy wedge)
π‘ Strongest documented privacy posture in the audited category
Secrets.AI’s Privacy Policy states that users can enable Private Mode, which encrypts conversations end-to-end and prevents those conversations from being used for AI training purposes. This is rare in the AI companion category. For comparison: Joi’s policy explicitly does not guarantee end-to-end encryption and treats chat as stored service data. OurDream.AI stores chat data for service operations. The DreamAI SRL family does not surface E2EE controls in public-facing documentation. Most apps in this product type retain chat content for moderation, training, and analytics by default.
If conversation privacy matters to you, Private Mode is the feature that separates Secrets.AI from the rest of the category. The opt-out from AI training combined with E2E encryption gives users a privacy posture that approaches what end-to-end encrypted messaging apps offer, which is unusual in a category built largely around chat content harvesting.
π Practical privacy verification
Enable Private Mode before any conversation you want covered. The E2EE and training opt-out apply on a conversation-mode basis, not retroactively. As with any privacy tool, avoid sharing real-world identifiers (full name, address, account numbers) regardless of which mode you’re using.
Verified tier structure (from Secrets.AI official wiki)
The vendor publishes three subscription tiers. The Lite tier was removed for new users on January 30, 2026 per the wiki; any third-party reference to “Lite” should be treated as legacy.

$319.99/year ($26.67/month) |

2,000 chars (2x Premium) |
15,000 |
π Quarterly and biannual options also exist
Beyond monthly and annual, the vendor wiki documents intermediate billing cycles: Premium at $49.99/quarter ($16.67/month) and $89.99/biannual ($15.00/month); Ultimate at $99.99/quarter ($33.33/month) and $179.99/biannual ($30.00/month). The quarterly-to-annual progression gives real step-downs in effective monthly rate at each commitment length, which is more granular than competitors that offer only monthly-or-annual.
Moments economics
Moments are the credit currency used for image generation, video creation, and audio calls. The monthly grant resets each cycle, and the total balance can drop when grant Moments reset (unused grant Moments don’t accumulate indefinitely). Top-up purchases above the subscription grant carry bonus percentages:
- Premium tier: 8,000 monthly grant + 10% bonus on Moments purchases
- Ultimate tier: 15,000 monthly grant + 15% bonus on Moments purchases
β οΈ Unlimited messaging does not mean unlimited media
The unlimited daily message cap applies to text chat only. Image generation, video creation, and audio calls all draw from the Moments balance. If you generate a lot of media, Moments are the main cost driver, not the subscription tier. Track Moments usage in the account UI rather than assuming the monthly grant covers heavy media use.
Memory and recall (the documented metrics)
Secrets.AI publishes a documented “previous conversations recalled” percentage by tier, which is rare in the category. Most competitors describe memory in marketing terms (“strong memory”, “Semantic Memory 2.0”) without concrete metrics. Secrets.AI provides specific tier multipliers:
| Tier |
Memory access |
Context length boost |
Previous conversations recalled |
| Free |
Basic |
Baseline |
Not documented |
| Premium |
4x access |
+60% context |
~67% |
| Ultimate |
6x access |
+100% context |
+100% |
Treat these as vendor-reported platform signals rather than independently audited benchmarks. The specificity is useful for comparison shopping: SpicyChat.AI’s “Semantic Memory 2.0” branding implies stronger retention than community-reported 15-20 message fade suggests, while Secrets.AI publishes percentages directly.
Personas and Group Chats (Ultimate-only features)
Two features sit on the Ultimate tier and are not available below it. Group Chats let you interact with 2-3 AI companions simultaneously, which is structurally different from the 1-on-1 model that defines most competitors. Personas let you create and switch between identities you use to interact with companions, useful for roleplay scenarios with multiple character setups or for users who want clean separation between different conversation contexts.
The Group Chats feature in particular is uncommon in the audited category. Most AI companion apps focus on single-character interaction; Secrets.AI’s multi-companion support is a structural feature, not a UX addition.
Payment methods and cancellation
- Cards: Visa, Mastercard, and most major brands (Amex excluded per vendor wiki)
- Virtual debit cards: accepted for users with single-use card services
- Cryptocurrency: accepted with a $20 minimum threshold per transaction
- Cancellation: can be done anytime; subscription remains active until end of current billing period
- Mid-cycle upgrade: takes effect immediately with prorated credit for the remaining time on the lower tier
π Crypto threshold note
The $20 crypto minimum is documented as a per-transaction floor, not a monthly cap. If you want to pay $19.99 for one month of Premium with crypto, the transaction may not be processable; you’d need to top up Moments or pay quarterly to clear the threshold. This is unusual in the category; most apps accepting crypto don’t publish a minimum.
Common risks and boundaries
Independent of how the product performs, these are the practical risks worth knowing before signing up:
- Moments are the real cost driver. Unlimited messaging on Premium and Ultimate doesn’t extend to media. Heavy image, video, or audio use depletes Moments faster than the monthly grant covers.
- Monthly Moments grant resets reduce total balance. Unused grant Moments don’t roll over indefinitely; track the cycle if you batch heavy use late in the month.
- Tier removal precedent exists. Lite was discontinued for new users on January 30, 2026. Current tier availability is not guaranteed permanent.
- Private Mode applies per-conversation, not retroactively. Enable before sensitive chats; existing non-Private conversations stay non-private.
- Crypto $20 minimum can complicate small-purchase use. If you want crypto payment specifically, plan transactions above the threshold.
- American Express is not accepted. Card users on Amex-only accounts need to use a different card or virtual debit.

Who Secrets.AI is for
- Privacy-conscious users. Private Mode with E2E encryption and AI-training opt-out is the strongest privacy posture in the audited category. If conversation privacy matters as a primary feature, this is the right pick.
- Multi-companion roleplay users. Group Chats with 2-3 AI companions on Ultimate is structurally different from 1-on-1 alternatives.
- Persona-switching users. The Personas feature on Ultimate supports identity separation across conversation contexts, useful for roleplay scenarios that don’t fit a single user profile.
- Buyers who want documented tier metrics. Explicit memory multipliers, context boost percentages, and recall signals make Secrets.AI’s transparency higher than most competitors.
- Long-form annual buyers at Premium level. Annual Premium at $13.33/month is competitive with the category, and the 8,000 Moments allocation suits moderate media users.
Who should look elsewhere
- Users who want vendor-verified pricing. Secrets.AI sits outside the May 2026 audit. Candy.AI, DreamGF.AI, SecretDesires.AI, and Infatuated.AI all have live checkout verification.
- Users who want no token system at all. SpicyChat.AI is purely tier-based with no per-action consumption (β¬4.95 / β¬13.95 / β¬23.95).
- Users who want Live Action mode or real-time video. Candy.AI‘s Live Action mode (December 2025+) is the closest realistic-side video alternative.
- Video-focused users wanting cheaper per-action math. OurDream.AI publishes 100 coins per video generation with 1,000-coin monthly allocation, more predictable than Moments-based media generation.
- Lowest-commitment testers. JustPorn.ai‘s $2.99 seven-day trial is the lowest paid commitment in the category.
- Buyers who want flexible refund framework. Joi publishes a 14-day refund window with Neurons-aware partial-refund logic, the most flexible refund framework in the audited category.
- Male AI character users. DreamBF is built specifically for male character interaction.
Methodology notes
π What this review verified and what it didn’t
Tier structure (Free / Premium / Ultimate), pricing across monthly / quarterly / biannual / annual billing cycles, Moments grants (0 / 8,000 / 15,000), top-up bonus percentages (10% Premium / 15% Ultimate), memory and context multipliers (4x and +60% Premium; 6x and +100% Ultimate), previous-conversations-recalled signals (~67% Premium / +100% Ultimate), Personas and Group Chats as Ultimate-only features, Group Chats supporting 2-3 companions, Private Mode E2E encryption and AI training opt-out, payment method list (cards minus Amex, virtual debit, crypto $20 minimum), cancellation behavior, mid-cycle upgrade with prorated credit, and Lite tier removal date (January 30, 2026) all verified from Secrets.AI’s official wiki and Privacy Policy.
What this review did not verify: pricing at vendor checkout from a live test purchase (Secrets.AI was not part of the May 2026 nine-app pricing audit; documented prices are from vendor wiki only). Operator entity (registered company) not surfaced in public documentation. Private Mode actual encryption implementation (E2E is documented as policy, not independently audited). Recall percentages are vendor-reported signals, not independently benchmarked. Refund process actually executing. Long-term memory consistency across the 4x/6x access tiers.
Verdict
Secrets.AI is the privacy-focused pick in the AI companion category. The Private Mode framework (E2E encryption plus AI training opt-out) is the strongest documented privacy posture in the audited set, and the vendor’s wiki provides more explicit tier metrics (memory multipliers, recall percentages, context boost percentages) than competitors typically publish. Group Chats with 2-3 companions on Ultimate and Personas for identity separation add structural depth that doesn’t exist in 1-on-1-only alternatives.
The friction points are pricing transparency and tier cost ceiling. Secrets.AI was outside the May 2026 audit, so Premium and Ultimate pricing should be confirmed at the vendor checkout rather than treated as fixed. Ultimate at $39.99/month or $26.67/month annual is the most expensive subscription tier in the audited category aside from custom enterprise tiers, and the Moments-based media economy means heavy users still hit the same top-up dynamic as token-economy alternatives. If privacy and documented product transparency are your priorities and you can budget for the Ultimate tier or work within Premium’s 8,000 Moments allocation, Secrets.AI is the right pick. If lower-cost video access matters more, OurDream.AI’s coin economics or SpicyChat.AI’s no-token tier-based model will fit better.
