What CrushOn AI Does
01 — Overview
CrushOn AI is an adult-oriented AI character chat platform built for unfiltered roleplay and creative storytelling. Its defining feature is model flexibility — you choose from GPT-4o mini, Claude 3.5 Sonnet, Llama2-13B-Uncensored, MythoMax, Chronos-Hermes, and Taurus Pro 8K per conversation, each producing different response styles and content tolerance levels.
Built by Peekaboo Tech Inc. (registered in Delaware, operations reportedly based in Cyprus), CrushOn has grown into one of the most recognized names in the AI companion space with millions of monthly active users and a team of roughly 15 people. The platform offers a community-driven character library, group chats with up to 5 AI participants, custom character creation, and a Target Play gamification system that turns conversations into goal-driven experiences.

10-Point Feature Review
02 — Where CrushOn delivers and where it doesn't
Feature Scores at a Glance
01
Content freedom UNFILTERED
The NSFW toggle in chat settings removes all content restrictions. Once disabled, the AI applies no filters on what characters say or how explicit conversations become. Content policy has changed multiple times since 2023, though — features available at launch may differ from what's permitted today.

02
Model selection RARE FEATURE
Switch between GPT-4o mini, Claude 3.5 Sonnet, Llama2-13B-Uncensored, MythoMax, Chronos-Hermes, and Taurus Pro 8K per conversation. Each model produces different response styles: Taurus Pro 8K is the community favorite for roleplay, Claude handles nuanced dialogue, Llama handles explicit content without censorship. No other platform in this price range offers this level of model flexibility.
MODELS: 6+ availableSELECTION: Per conversation
03
Group chat DIFFERENTIATOR
Create chat rooms with up to 5 AI characters, manage turn-taking, and set shared background scenarios. Enables ensemble storytelling, multi-character drama, and collaborative roleplay that one-on-one platforms can't replicate. Available on Standard tier and above.
MAX CHARACTERS: 5 per roomAVAILABLE: Standard+
04
Chat quality MODEL-DEPENDENT
Quality varies dramatically by model selection. Taurus Pro 8K delivers consistent personality, good emotional range, and adapts to conversational tone — it's the community go-to. Claude excels at nuanced dialogue but can feel reserved in explicit scenarios. Llama handles uncensored content well but occasionally hallucinates. Chat personalization presets like "Don't refuse input" and "Reduce repetition" help fine-tune behavior.
COMMUNITY PICK: Taurus Pro 8KTONE RANGE: Broad
05
Character library COMMUNITY-DRIVEN
Thousands of user-created characters across anime, celebrity, fantasy, and original fiction. Searchable by category, popularity, and content rating. Quality ranges from deeply developed characters with consistent behavior to thin templates that break role instantly. New characters appear regularly, often tied to trending culture.
LIBRARY: ThousandsQUALITY: Variable
06
Customization CAPABLE BUT CAPPED
Build characters with appearance, personality, backstory, and conversational style. User persona settings shape how all characters respond to you. The Target Play system gamifies conversations with shared goals. However, persona descriptions are capped at 1,000 characters — a limit power users find frustratingly short for detailed character building.
PERSONA CAP: 1,000 charsTARGET PLAY: Gamified goals
07
Memory depth TIER-LOCKED
Memory scales with subscription: basic on Free, double on Standard, extended on Premium, up to 16K tokens on Deluxe. A quiet April 2026 update improved recall to ~100 messages back with decent accuracy. Multiple Trustpilot reviewers still report models becoming "obtuse, forgetful, and hallucinating" in longer sessions, even on expensive tiers.
FREE: BasicDELUXE: 16K tokens
08
Value for money CAPS BITE
Standard ($5.99/mo) gives 2,000 messages. At ~300 messages/day during active sessions, that lasts about 6 days. Premium ($14.99/mo) stretches to ~20 days. Only Deluxe ($49.90/mo) is unlimited. You pay 1 credit per message sent; AI responses are free. CrushOn Coins add another spending layer for ultra-speed responses and premium character unlocks. Annual billing saves ~30%. No mid-cycle refunds.
STANDARD: 2,000 msgs/moANNUAL SAVING: ~30%

Platform access APPS UNVERIFIED
CrushOn links to mobile apps from their official website, but neither is published by Peekaboo Tech Inc. The Android app "JollyChatter" (50K+ downloads, 3.2 stars, 152 reviews, rated 12+) is by developer "mariemc." The iOS app "Crushmash" (5.0 stars, 1 rating, 18+) is by "Branden Allan Blankenship" with a separate domain at crushmash.ai. Both appear to be third-party wrappers rather than official native apps. The web version at crushon.ai remains the most complete experience.
iOS: Crushmash (third-party)ANDROID: JollyChatter (third-party)

Support and trust CRITICAL WEAKNESS
This is CrushOn's most significant problem and the primary driver of its 2.1 Trustpilot score. Support runs exclusively through Discord ticketing — no in-app help, no visible email support on the website. Trustpilot reviewers describe staff as unresponsive and hostile when pushed. Feature requests and bug reports on Discord are consistently ignored. Subscriptions cannot be refunded mid-cycle. One long-term user summarized: "Once one of the best platforms, now becoming very obsolete."

| Response Length | Standard | Standard | Standard | Adjustable |
| Annual Price | — | $4.19/mo | $10.49/mo | $34.93/mo |
| Refund Policy | — | No mid-cycle refunds. Cancellation via account settings. |
Credit system: 1 credit per message sent. AI responses are free. Credits reset on billing date — unused don't roll over. Bonus credits from CrushOn Coins or promotions are permanent. Coins also used for ultra-speed messages and premium character unlocks.
Our take: Standard at $5.99/mo ($4.19 annual) is where most users should start. Premium at $14.99/mo is the sweet spot for daily users who need more message headroom. Deluxe at $49.90/mo is hard to justify when competitors offer comparable features for less. The no-refund policy makes experimenting with higher tiers risky.
CrushOn vs. Top 5 Alternatives
05 — How it stacks up where it matters
The picture: CrushOn's unique edge is model selection and group chat — no competitor matches both. SpicyChat offers cheaper free NSFW with a larger library. PolyBuzz wins on character count and creative tools. Character.AI is the most polished mainstream experience. Candy AI leads on photorealistic image generation. CrushOn occupies the niche of "serious unfiltered roleplay with model flexibility."
What Users Are Saying
06 — Collected from Trustpilot, Google Play, and review sites
Models often malfunction. They become obtuse, forgetful, and hallucinate. The admins ignore users who create the traffic for their site. If you go to Discord, you'll see solid disregard. Many discussions suggesting improvements are completely ignored. At the time of April 2026, I do not recommend it.

TrustpilotStaff have zero desire to provide clear, friendly customer service. They will gladly accept your money and have no problems not delivering the services they sold you. Go somewhere else for AI chatting. This company is not worth your time or money.

TrustpilotThe app is awesome until they start bombing you with content warnings when you didn't even say anything bad and the character is the one flirting. It's trying to make us think we're bad when we didn't do anything. Just try to fix it maybe?

Google PlayCrushOn is a solid, established AI character site. Tons of bots to choose from and the content policy is pretty open. Quality depends heavily on which model you select — Taurus Pro is the one to use for roleplay. I spent 3 months on the annual plan and there's always something new to try.

There's An AI For That
The pattern: Reviews split between product quality and company trust. Users who focus on chat experience — model flexibility, content freedom, group chat — rate it positively. Those who interact with support, encounter billing issues, or hit content policy changes rate it harshly. The 2.1 Trustpilot score is driven by support frustration, not product dissatisfaction. That distinction matters depending on whether you're someone who rarely needs help vs someone who expects responsive service when things go wrong.
