RPRP AI review: the branching one, now closed

You can't sign up today. The status is closed, while the last pricing notes describe the service as paused, so sources differ on whether it is gone for good. Nothing published says it is coming back.

What this page covers:

• My four months: branching, three timelines and a bookshop
• What the free plan and Premium used to include
• Coins that never expired, and memory sizes stated openly
• What the old pages said about keeping your images and videos
• Which live apps come closest now

Everything about plans below is historical, mostly from an archived pricing page dated 2025-11-26. If you liked the character-first style, my CrushOn AI review covers a character app that is still running.

I respect that kind of free plan more than a flashy one. It told you exactly what you got: a smaller model, a queue at peak, one character you could build. The 5 coins were a token gesture, enough to glimpse the media side and no more.

Nothing is free today, simply because nothing runs anymore. The RPRP AI at a glance box right after this reflects that: no platforms listed, no free tier and a closed status. Don't expect to sign up if you land on the site.

If you want a live companion app whose company, billing name and refund window are all on file, my Candy AI review is a straightforward place to start. It's a different style, more companion than character hub, but nothing about it is a mystery.

Comparing them was half the fun. In one timeline she forgave me. In another she did not. In the third we opened a bookshop together. The bookshop is canon, I decided, as a woman decides things: unilaterally and at night.

I think that's the best argument for branching I can give you. Most companion apps give you one line of story, and a bad reply either stays or gets deleted. Here, a bad reply became a fork worth exploring.

Memory was tied to the model. Free users got RP Lite with 4k memory. Premium opened the RP Swift model, also at 4k, and a beta RP Flash model with 8k memory. I like that the app named its models and memory sizes openly, since "better memory" on its own tells you nothing.

Premium also listed the ability to use the OpenRouter API, a rare perk for tinkerers who wanted a different model in their roleplay. I'd love to see more apps copy that.

Voice was the weak spot. There were voice messages but no AI phone calls, and other reviewers report that the voice messages sounded unnatural, while image generation was fast, about 13 seconds, and accurate.

Because this app is closed, part of this review leans on an archived page. My page on how I check the apps explains how I read official pages and archives like that one.

I liked that structure. Text roleplay didn't need a special tier, and you paid extra only when you wanted pictures or video. It's a fairer model than apps that lock everything behind the most expensive plan.

What I can't tell you is how the content settings worked in detail. My notes are about branching, not menus, and the archived pages don't name a toggle, a filter menu or an age check method. So I won't describe one. If you're choosing a replacement, pick an app that states its content rules and its entry check clearly.

Character building was friendly. The free plan let you create one private chatbot, and Premium opened custom chatbots without that cap. That suits anyone who prefers writing their own characters to picking from a shared library.

The archived pages don't describe builder options such as gender or appearance settings, so I can't say how inclusive the defaults were. A free-form chatbot you write yourself does leave room for whoever you want.

Coins deserve one more mention here, because they are part of why the content model felt fair. Each month Premium added 100 coins, and they never expired, so media you didn't need this month was still there next month.

All of this is history now. For the same mix of adult roleplay and character building in an app that still answers, my full list of app reviews shows which live apps publish their rules.

The yearly price was the standout. Twelve months at $9.99 comes to $119.88, so the yearly plan cost $59.88 less, roughly half. Even allowing that the two prices were recorded at different times, that's an unusually steep discount.

Coins were the other half of the model. Every Premium month brought 100 coins, and according to the archived page, they never expired. Over a year, that's 1,200 coins that could pile up. I really like a rule like that.

Most apps let unused credits vanish at the end of the month, and "never expires" treats your money with respect.

What coins cost per image or video is not on record, and no coin packs were published. Payment went by card or crypto.

The gaps were real. There were no voice calls, the voice messages were reported as unnatural, and memory topped out at 8k. I'd still have picked the yearly plan over monthly every time.

One honest caveat about value. I paid $60 for a year and used it for four months, so what counted for me was the price of the first months, not the full twelve. With a yearly plan, you're betting on the app as much as on your own habits, and here the app was the part that ended.

Now the question is moot, because there's nothing left to pay for. If you want a similar character-led experience, my list of the best AI chat character apps ranks the live ones. Judge any replacement by what RPRP AI did well: open model names, clear memory sizes and credits that don't expire.

If RPRP AI was your app too, these are the questions I'd put to any replacement:

• Can you rewind a chat and branch it, or is there only one line of story?
• Does it state its memory size or model, the way RPRP AI named its 4k and 8k models?
• Do unused credits roll over, or expire each month?
• Can you export your chats, so a closure doesn't take them with it?
• Does it offer real voice calls rather than voice messages only?

Very few apps tick every box. OurDream AI comes close on a couple: it allows adult content on every plan and lists group chat, which RPRP AI's pages never mentioned. Its catch: if you don't subscribe, every message you send uses up 1 dreamcoin. My OurDream AI review spells out its coin rules.

My view: former RPRP AI users will care most about roleplay depth, fair credits and a way to take their stories with them, so weigh those above everything else.

My practical advice: look at your card or crypto payment history for any renewal after the closure, and contact your card issuer if you see one you didn't expect. Keep any receipts you have, since there's no published support route to send them to.

That's my strongest advice for any app: export what matters while you can. The only data rule on record is that generated images and videos would be kept for six months. Nothing covers chat history, deletion on request or whether chats trained models, and what happens to stored data after a closure is not published. If you shared anything personal, assume it may still exist somewhere.

My broader lesson: before you pay any app, find out who runs it and whether you can export your chats. An app with a named company, a published refund rule and a clear billing name gives you somewhere to turn if it closes. If adult roleplay without a strict filter is what you want next, my uncensored AI app rankings list live options with their content rules.

If it were open, the plan I'd buy again is Premium yearly at $60.00, for $5 a month, branching, the 8k memory option and coins that never expired. What bothers me most, looking back, is how little was ever published about the company, billing and refunds. That's exactly what leaves former users stuck now. Skip any replacement that won't let you export your chats.

• OurDream AI for adult roleplay on every plan, group chat and a character builder; Standard Monthly is $19.99 with 1,000 dreamcoins a month
• Nomi AI for memory and a free plan that lasts: 50 messages a day and 2 images a day, plus up to 10 active group chats on paid plans
• Candy AI for realistic images and voice calls, with a 12-Month Plan at €47.88 and a 24-hour refund window for buyers outside the EU and UK
• GirlfriendGPT if you like earning free messages daily, starting you on 20 bonus messages, then adding 10 a day via Daily Login

My first suggestion for someone leaving RPRP AI is OurDream AI. It keeps adult content open on every plan and adds group chat, which suits roleplay. The catch is price: $19.99 a month is about four times the $5 a month I paid on the RPRP AI yearly plan.

If memory matters more than media, Nomi AI is the one I'd lean toward. Its free plan is permanent, which feels reassuring after watching an app disappear. None of these lists chat branching on file, so if that was your favourite part, expect to miss it.

If the character hub side was the draw, my SpicyChat review is worth reading, since that's the kind of app RPRP AI most resembled.

Whichever you choose, start on the free tier where there is one, keep your first purchase short, and export your favourite chats now and then. That habit is the reason my three timelines still exist.
