Nomi (nomi.ai) has been live since July 2023 and, like Kindroid, backs up its “emotional intelligence” pitch with real third-party numbers: 4.6 out of 5 on the Apple App Store from roughly 2,600 ratings, verified directly through the listing rather than taken from marketing copy.

What it does

Nomi markets a layered memory system, short, medium, and long-term retention, alongside chat, voice calls, “selfies” and AI art with contextual edits, group chats supporting up to three Nomis in one room, and additional companion slots beyond the first. Most of these secondary features run on a credit system layered on top of the subscription rather than being unlimited.

Pricing

Nomi’s official Apple App Store listing, the most authoritative pricing source we could verify directly, since third-party review sites quote conflicting numbers ranging from $7.99 to $16.99, lists a Launch Plan at $9.99/month ($59.99/year) and a Standard Plan at $15.99/month ($39.99/quarter, or $99.99/year, which works out to roughly $8.33/month). On top of a plan, credit top-ups for extra selfies, art, video, or additional companions run $4.99 to $99.99 for 40 to 1,800 credits — a video generation costs 6 credits in standard definition or 10 in HD, an extra companion costs 100 credits, and adding a group-chat room costs 25. A free, no-card-required tier exists with daily limits that third-party sources describe inconsistently, so we won’t quote a specific cap here.

Privacy — a genuine gap worth knowing about

Nomi’s privacy policy states that deleting your account removes personal information within about 28 days, but explicitly carves out an exception: data already folded into “training or communications archives” is not deleted, only made “no longer attributable” to you, meaning anonymized conversation data can persist indefinitely even after you delete your account. The policy doesn’t clearly describe an opt-out from having conversations used this way, and there’s no individual-message deletion, only full-account deletion. On age verification, Nomi’s own policy is candid that it “intends to implement additional age-verification measures,” an admission that, as of this writing, verification is self-reported rather than actively enforced.

What users report

App Store sentiment is strongly positive at the aggregate level, with reviewers frequently praising conversational depth and memory specifically, the feature the product is built around. Trustpilot tells a different, smaller-sample story: around 37 reviews, skewing more mixed, with a recurring complaint pattern around refund requests going unanswered and slow support response times. Nomi’s refund policy is strict, no partial-month, downgrade, or unused-time refunds, which lines up with what the Trustpilot complaints describe.

The bottom line

Nomi is a legitimate, well-reviewed companion app with a real edge in conversational and memory quality, verified independently through App Store data rather than just marketing claims. The privacy caveat around indefinite anonymized data retention and the unenforced age-verification promise are the two things we’d want a prospective subscriber to actually read the policy for before signing up, not just take our summary of it.
