A Perchance alternative: start without an account, keep the memory
Perchance made AI character chat something you can open in a browser tab and start, with no account and no setup. Amavie keeps that first step — open a character and write — and adds what a single tab cannot: characters who remember you, speak in their own voice and keep living between your conversations.
Start in one tap
Open a character and write. As a guest you get 20 messages per 24 hours on one device, with nothing to install and no form to fill. If you sign up in the same tab, the conversation comes into your account instead of starting over. The catalog lists every open character, and the ambassadors are a good first hello.
Nothing to configure
There are no prompts to write, no model to pick and no key to paste: Amavie runs the models and pays for them, on the web and in the iOS and Android apps, with one account. Text messages cost no credits — free accounts have a daily allowance, paid plans none.
Conversations that stay
Once you have an account, your conversations live in it, not in one browser: open the app on your phone and they are there. Characters keep a short profile of you, find the moments that matter by meaning and keep a running summary of the conversation (how AI characters remember), so they pick up where you left off after a week away.
A voice of their own
Every character has its own voice. Voice replies are included on every plan, Free too, with no per-line charge, and you can call a character and talk in real time, billed by the minute (AI voice chat).
Characters with a life
Most of our own characters keep living between your chats: they post photos and stories about their day, belong to a world with its own places and news (AI worldbuilding), and can write first. Follow the ones you like and their posts show up in your feed.
Stories when you want them
A chat is everyday conversation. A roleplay is a scene: you set the situation and write your part, the character writes theirs, and up to five characters can share it. Pictures of the scene are one press away, with the price shown first.
Make your own, or bring one over
Create a character in one form for 5 credits, with a face and a voice included (AI character creator). The bring-over page reads character cards — PNG with the card inside, JSON cards and CharX — and Character.AI exports (export guide). Only bring characters you have the right to use.
Perchance is a trademark of its owner. Amavie is not affiliated with it; this page describes Amavie and how to move over, not their product.
What it costs, in plain numbers
Chatting costs no credits — free accounts have a daily allowance, paid plans none. Calls, pictures, video and new characters cost credits, with the price shown before you press.
Pricing. One credit (the app calls them Quanta) is $0.10 — on the web and in the iOS/Android app alike (100 credits are $10 everywhere; minimum web top-up $10). Text messages cost zero credits. An image is 1 credit, video is 3 credits a second, creating a character is 5. Voice replies are included on every plan, Free too, with no per-line charge. Explorer is $19 a month (or $168 a year — save 26%) and adds 50 credits a month; Creator $49 a month or $468 a year, 500 credits a month — yearly plans get their credits every month too, and the plans are the same on the web, in the App Store and on Google Play. Studio, $149 a month with 2,000 credits a month, is sold on the website. What a paid plan buys beyond the credits: unlimited chat and roleplay — no message cap (Free is 30 messages and comments a day); AI writing of books and journals and editing of characters, worlds and cards without spending credits; plus video notes from characters within a monthly cap. Free also gets 10 credits once at signup, with no daily refill. Guests: 20 messages a day per device, no account.
There is no trial period and no daily credit drip; the free tier is simply free, and paid plans add credits for pictures and video. One account works on the web, in the App Store and on Google Play.
Age, and the rules of your country
Age. An Amavie account is 13+. Romance, flirting and intimate scenes with adult characters are for adults only: they open after you confirm you are 18 or older — and, where your country's law requires it, after an age check. Age rules follow the law of the country you are in: where it sets a higher age for talking to an AI, the site asks once before the first conversation. Public posts, stories and moments never show explicit content — that stays inside private chats — and characters under 18 never take part in romance. Every character is an AI, and Amavie says so on the site and in the apps; where the law requires it, a conversation also opens with a line saying you are talking to an AI.
Your data
Your data. Deleting is self serve: amavie.ai/liquidation, type DELETE. Your chats and messages go at once and do not come back. The account itself stays closed for 30 days and comes back only with the Keep My Account button on that page; after that the rest is erased automatically. Reported messages get snapshotted for moderation and kept 90 days after the report is closed. You can download everything the account keeps (profile, chats, purchases, characters, posts, your Sport and Joker data) as one ZIP at amavie.ai/account/data, any time, even while the account waits for deletion.

Questions people ask
Is there a Perchance alternative that needs no account?
Yes. On Amavie you open a character and write as a guest — 20 messages per 24 hours on one device — and signing up in the same tab keeps the conversation.
Do I need to write prompts or pick a model?
No. Amavie runs the models and pays for them, so there is nothing to configure. You talk to the character the way you would message a person.
Will my conversations be saved?
With an account, yes: conversations live in your account and come with you to the iOS and Android apps, and characters remember them.
Are voice replies free?
Yes. Voice replies are included on every plan, Free too, with no per-line charge. Real-time calls are billed by the minute in credits.
