Pricing, in plain numbers
PepHop AI's verified entry price is $4.99/mo (as of 2026-10-08). Replika does not publish pricing publicly, so we mark it unconfirmed rather than guessing. Watch for token systems and add-ons on both sides: the sticker price is rarely the whole bill in this category.

Replika partially allows NSFW content. Replika removed erotic roleplay in February–March 2023, then restored it only for accounts created before Feb 1, 2023 via a 'legacy' version toggle; stricter filters remained for newer accounts.
