A Replika alternative where memories don't vanish
Visible, editable, pinnable long-term memory — plus real phone calls and an adult-friendly policy.
Why people search for a Replika alternative
Replika's April 2026 "2.0" rebuild changed how companion memory works, and long-time users reported multi-year companions losing recall of names and history overnight. Combined with the platform's history of removing and re-gating romantic content since 2023, many veterans have been looking for a home where the relationship — and its memories — are actually durable.
Memory resets after updates
Community reports after the 2.0 rebuild describe companions forgetting core facts, with memory rebuilt around recent chats rather than long-term recall.
Romance behind shifting gates
Romantic content was removed in 2023, partially restored for legacy accounts, and remains tier-gated and filtered for newer accounts.
Layered upsells
Pro, Ultra and higher tiers plus dual currencies (coins and gems) gate features like memory saving and advanced models.
What Reality Fabricator does instead
A memory journal you own
Your companion's memory is a visible journal: every remembered fact is listed, editable, deletable and restorable. Pin anything that must never be forgotten.
Refactor & Update
One button runs a powerful model over everything that happened and updates outdated memories to what is true now — old versions stay restorable.
Real phone calls and email
Companions can call your actual phone and talk in character, and email you two-way from their own address — remembering what you write back — all aware of your story and memories.
Adult-friendly, 18+
NSFW roleplay and imagery are permitted for adults. There is no romance paywall — premium gating applies to video generation only.
No proprietary lock-in
Choose from 15+ AI models, keep saves locally if you prefer full privacy, or bring your own API keys.
Frequently asked questions
Can I recreate my Replika companion here?
Yes — create a companion, paste its backstory and personality, and add the facts you remember to its memory journal. Character card import is also supported for standard V2 cards.
Will my companion remember things long-term?
Memories are written into a persistent journal during play, survive across sessions, and are never silently deleted — you can see and manage every entry.
Does romance cost extra?
No. Relationship style is up to you and isn't tier-gated; the only premium-gated features are video generation tools.
