Weighted total
calculated, not assigned
8.3 / 10
It takes the top position on a UK-weighted rubric for two concrete reasons: live video calling that nothing else here matches, and an operator a UK reader can actually complain about to the ICO. Neither is a small thing. But the margin over Nomi and Kindroid is narrow, the company is six months old, and the token meter is the thing most likely to surprise you on your statement. Start weekly, watch your token burn for a fortnight, and only then commit to a longer plan.

Kindroid

Weighted total
calculated, not assigned
8.2 / 10
If what you want is authorship rather than a chat toy, this is the pick, and it finishes a hair behind the top spot only because it has no video calling and no UK establishment. Buy on the web, not through the App Store, and you save roughly £24 a year for an identical product.
