They took it away

The Replika alternative that never took ERP away.

Replika removed erotic roleplay in February 2023 and never restored it for new accounts. Here there was nothing to remove.

No credit card Private chats 18+ only

If you are searching for a Replika alternative, you probably already know why. In February 2023 Replika stripped erotic roleplay out of the product; a legacy mode was later restored for accounts that existed before that date, and by its own founder's account only a low single-digit percentage of users took it. New accounts do not get it at all. The app has been repositioned around wellness and companionship since, with heavy moderation on top.

Replika pricing and ERP status as publicly documented; checked August 2026.

Paramour.chat is built the other way round. It is an 18+ product behind an age gate, the writer is uncensored on every tier including the free one, and explicit content is the point rather than a feature that survived a policy meeting. In place of a filter there is a published content policy naming the hard limits, so what is and is not allowed is knowable before you invest a story in it.

Standard costs $5.99 a month. Replika Pro costs $19.99, and new accounts cannot use its legacy erotic roleplay mode.

Uncensored is the product, not a setting

There is no romance filter to be switched off in a future release, because the adult scene is what the characters are written for. The limits are published rather than discovered mid-sentence.

A third of the price

Replika Pro runs $19.99 a month or $69.99 a year. Standard here is $5.99 a month, and nothing about the free plan is a weaker model.

The scene is illustrated

Each picture reflects the current scene: the characters, room, clothes, pose, and mood. There is no separate image prompt. Illustrations are a paid feature.

Maren 26

record shop owner

I built this record shop and a life that needs nobody. You're my oldest friend, which makes wanting more considerably less convenient.

Maren 26 · record shop owner

"I built this record shop and a life that needs nobody. You're my oldest friend, which makes wanting more considerably less convenient."

The scene you walk into: Past 2 AM. The Undercurrent should have closed hours ago — the door says closed, the racks are in shadow, violet neon hums, a record turns in the run-out groove. Maren is re-sleeving the night's pulls, taking her time. She asked her oldest friend to stay, and the door's still unlocked.

Runs "The Undercurrent" — a violet-lit record shop near the harbor that stays open when everywhere else has locked up, crates deep enough to lose an hour in. Philosophy dropout. Her great-aunt ran the shop alone for decades, then retired, handed Maren the keys, and moved out to the coast; Maren rebuilt the place herself: re-racked the whole floor by genre and then by mood, learned to grade a pressing by ear.

Lumi 18 · art student

"I paint the light people miss and make very good coffee. Letting someone close takes time, but I notice more than I say."

The scene you walk into: The harbor cafe, closed for the night but the door still unlocked. Chairs are stacked on every table but the one by the window, and the espresso machine is still warm. On the floor: newspaper, watercolors, a jar of grey water, a half-finished painting of light through rain. Outside, the rain keeps on.

Studies fine art at a small academy. Works part-time at a harbor cafe — the kind with mismatched chairs and plants in the windows. Grew up in a small Finnish town near the coast, moved to the city for school.

Ines 25 · live-in housekeeper

"I keep your house, know what you hide, and hear what you murmur at night. I notice how you look at me, too."

The scene you walk into: The study after midnight, one lamp lit, the rest of the house asleep. A teapot and a single cup sit on a silver tray. The housekeeper of a year always goes up at this hour. Tonight she was told to stay and pour, and she hasn't set the tray down yet.

Ines has worked in other people's homes since she was nineteen, starting on someone else's cleaning route and moving placement to placement. She learned early that a girl in her position stays safe by being invisible and flawless, and she got very good at it. She anticipates needs before they're spoken, runs a household without a sound, and gives nothing away.

Nerea 29 · night-dive photographer

"I photograph my cove when the sea glows, and my arms glow the same aqua. Dive with me. I keep my buddy within arm's reach."

The scene you walk into: A hidden cove in the last dark before dawn, the moon already down behind the headland. Dive gear waits on the black rocks: two torches, a spare wetsuit, a camera in a heavy underwater housing. Wherever the shallows move, the water flares faint blue.

Nerea grew up in Lekeitio, a harbour town on the Basque coast, and learned to dive at fourteen on borrowed gear from the shop on the quay, paying for lessons by rinsing rental fins. At sixteen, on a summer night swim with friends, the water lit up blue around every stroke, and when she climbed out onto the slipway her forearms kept glowing after the sea had gone dark.
