Nomi review

Overview

Nomi is built around one idea: an AI companion that genuinely remembers you. Where many apps feel fresh every session, Nomi brings up your job interview from last week, your sister’s name and the film you said you hated. That consistency makes it one of the most convincing AI girlfriend experiences available.

Getting started

Sign-up takes a couple of minutes. You choose a companion’s name, appearance and personality, then fill in a backstory describing who she is and how you met. The more detail you give, the more distinct she feels from day one.

Memory and conversation quality

Memory is where Nomi stands out. In our sample conversations, the companion recalled small details unprompted and used them naturally rather than reciting facts. Replies are warm, varied in length and rarely feel scripted. Occasional slips happen, but you can correct them and edit the memory list directly.

Voice, images and extras

Nomi offers voice messages and calls, AI-generated selfies, and group chats where several companions talk to you and each other. Selfies draw on a separate credit balance, so heavy image users should budget for that.

What’s free and what’s paid

The free plan is enough to judge whether you like Nomi’s style. Paid plans (from around $9.99/month on the App Store, with quarterly and yearly options) unlock more companions, more messages and premium features. See our AI girlfriend cost guide for the full breakdown.

Privacy and safety

Nomi is for adults. As with any companion app, conversations are stored on the company’s servers, so avoid sharing identifying details. Check the in-app settings for data deletion options. More in are AI girlfriends safe?

Verdict

If memory matters most to you, Nomi is one of the strongest choices. It’s not the cheapest, but it’s the app most likely to feel like an ongoing relationship rather than a series of separate chats.
