Pricing
- Pricing model
- Paid
No ongoing free tier: new accounts get a one-time preview (50 messages, 5 selfies, up to 2 Kindroids), then become read-only. A 3-day premium trial needs a payment method and converts automatically. Plans run 1 month, 3 months or 1 year, with Ultra and MAX as monthly add-ons; the help centre says the exact price for your country and platform is shown only at checkout, and web is usually cheaper than the app stores.
Use tool ↗About Kindroid
Kindroid is a companion app where you write a character's backstory and personality and then talk to it by text, voice call or video call. It keeps several layers of memory, including a cascaded medium-term layer, so the character carries context across sessions, and it generates selfies, videos and avatars on request, with group chats of several characters. The free tier has been replaced by a one-time preview of 50 messages on the flagship model, after which the account turns read-only until you subscribe or start a 3-day trial. A subscription unlocks the flagship models, 10 characters, custom voices and monthly audio credits, and Ultra and MAX add-ons buy longer memory. A documented developer API and an open-source Discord bot are available.

Pros & cons of Kindroid
One of the more serious companion apps: memory is split across persistent, cascaded and retrievable layers rather than being a single context window, and calls, video avatars and generated selfies are all first-party rather than bolted on. It has dropped its free tier for a one-time 50-message preview, and prices now appear only at checkout, so you commit before you can compare plans. The memory tiers that make it good are sold as add-ons on top of the base plan.
Pros
- Three memory systems including a medium-term cascaded layer, documented in the help centre
- Voice calls, video calls, custom trained voices and generated selfies are all built in
- Public developer API with its own key format plus an open-source Discord bot
- iOS, Android and web with one account, and buying on the web is usually cheaper than in the app stores
Cons
- No ongoing free tier: a one-time 50-message preview, then read-only until you pay
- The high-context Ultra and MAX tiers are separate monthly add-ons stacked on the base plan
- Add-on tiers are gated behind a usage history, so you cannot simply buy them
- Prices are shown only at checkout and vary by country and platform
Best for
- people who want a character that remembers across months, not sessions
- users who care about voice and video calls as much as text
- developers wiring a character into Discord or their own app via the API
Not for
- anyone looking for a task assistant rather than a companion
- users unwilling to pay, since after a 50-message preview the account turns read-only
Watch out: If the base subscription lapses the account becomes read-only even while Ultra or MAX is still being billed, and the 3-day trial converts to a paid plan automatically.
