What is known

  • Registration is free; the service calls it a “free trial” — “a soft landing with no commitment”.
  • Everything that consumes tokens (voice, photos, video) and 18+ generation is in the subscription.
  • The free message limit is not stated on public pages — not verified.

What is locked without a subscription

According to the subscriptions page the paid plan includes: your own character, 18+ photos and video, Live Action, unlimited messages and 100 tokens. It is logical to assume that free access covers limited chatting and browsing the catalog — but that is our assumption, not the service's data.
