| Check | Nomi | HeyGF |
|---|---|---|
| Best fit | Users who care more about long-term memory and continuity than heavy image or video use. | Users who want to compare a customization-led companion route after reading the cost and subscription hub. |
| Avoid if | You mainly want image-heavy or video-heavy generation and have not compared costs that can change after signup. | You want only the initial four-app comparison set or need hands-on testing before considering a service. |
| Expected 30-day range | $0-$15.99 / $15.99-$25.98 / $35.98-$115.98+ | $8.33 annual equivalent or $9.99 monthly / $19.99-$39.99 / $39.99-$80+ |
| Extra spend triggers | Paid features, group chats, video creation, voice messaging/calls, and virtual-credit add-ons may affect cost. | Customization features, media generation, credits, upgrades, renewals, and checkout add-ons may change real 30-day cost. |
| Cancellation | Official cancellation policy says users must cancel through the platform where they purchased: web, Google Play, or Apple App Store. Deleting the app does not cancel the subscription. | Official terms say subscriptions auto-renew until canceled and can be canceled through account settings, with access continuing until the current billing period ends. |
| Refund | Official refund policy says payments are generally nonrefundable for buyer remorse, lack of usage, dissatisfaction, partial months, downgrades, or unused time, with possible discretionary exceptions. | Official terms say partial subscription periods and one-time purchases such as coin packs or custom media are generally not credited or refunded, with exceptional cases handled at provider discretion. |
| Privacy | Memory-first use can involve sensitive context. Review the terms and privacy policy before entering private details or media. | Official privacy policy lists account, payment, messages, AI responses, images/media, preferences, device, usage, and log data. Review training, retention, and opt-out/account-setting language before uploading photos or private details. |
