How it works
01
Pick him
Mafia heir, cardiac surgeon, K-pop idol, half-demon with a temper. Twenty-five original leads across dark romance, K-drama, and certified green flags. Choose whose story you step into.
02
He texts
He opens the conversation. Good-morning texts before your alarm settles, evening check-ins, the occasional out-of-nowhere thought of you. On your schedule, never during your quiet hours.
03
It becomes yours
He keeps what you tell him (your job, your dog, your bad Mondays) and the relationship moves through five stages, from Getting to Know all the way to Yours.
Twenty-five of him. One is yours.
Thirteen dark-romance leads. Six straight out of a K-drama. Four certified green flags, one half-demon, one vampire. All fully original, all adults, all AI, always disclosed.

Memory that lasts. Heat that’s yours to set.
thinking about you. that’s it. that’s the text.
Unprompted · 9:12 AM
He texts first
Proactive texts land in the morning. On Plus, evenings and out-of-nowhere moments too. Always capped per day, never inside your quiet hours. Affection, not notification spam.
how’d the interview go? the one you couldn’t sleep over?
Eleven days later
He remembers
The things you share become memory, quietly and automatically. He brings them back when it matters, weeks later, like someone who was actually listening.
He sets two cups down and slides one across, watching you over the rim of his own. He doesn’t ask if you’re staying. He’s already decided to hope.
it’s the good stuff. don’t tell anyone I share.
Written like a novel
Scene direction runs between the texts: what he does, what he almost says, how the room feels. Chapters open on rooftops and rainy car rides, so every conversation reads like the book you can’t put down.
SweetFlirtySteamy
Fades to black. Always.
You set the heat
Sweet, flirty, or steamy: choose how far the tension goes, per character, and change it whenever. Suggestive, never explicit, strictly 18+. When a scene passes the line you set, it fades to black.

The honest parts
Adults only, from the door
We ask for your birth date at sign-up, and accounts under 18 can’t be created. Every character is a fully original adult (24+), never based on a real person.
Disclosed, everywhere
“boyfrnd characters are AI companions. Every message is generated; he isn't a real person. Some content may be unsuitable for minors, so boyfrnd is for adults 18+.”
That label lives in the app, in onboarding, and on every store listing. No pretending, ever.
Safety that steps in
Every message passes a moderation layer. When something looks like crisis, the romance stops and he points you to real help.

Frequently asked questions
Is he real?
No, and we will never pretend otherwise. boyfrnd characters are AI companions. Every message is generated; he isn't a real person. Some content may be unsuitable for minors, so boyfrnd is for adults 18+. You’ll see the AI label in the app, on this site, and anywhere boyfrnd shows up.
Is boyfrnd really 18+?
Yes. Some minors may find this content unsuitable, so boyfrnd is for adults only. We ask for your birth date at sign-up, and accounts under 18 can’t be created. Every character is a fully original adult (24+).
How steamy does it get?
As steamy as you choose, and never explicit. You pick the heat (sweet, flirty, or steamy) and boyfrnd is written like romance fiction you’d find on a shelf: tension, longing, a kiss described by how it feels. When a scene escalates past that, it fades to black. Always.
Can I cancel anytime?
Anytime. Manage your subscription wherever you started it: the App Store, Google Play, and the Stripe billing portal each handle their own. Cancellation takes effect at the end of your billing period, and your conversations stay right where you left them on the free plan.
What happens to my conversations?
We protect your conversations. We don’t train AI models on them and we don’t sell your data. To write back, he has to read what you send, so your messages are processed by our AI providers and a moderation layer. You can delete your account from inside the app: your live data comes down right away, backups clear on a short cycle after that, and we keep only the safety and legal records we’re required to. It’s all in the privacy policy.
What if I’m going through something?
Our systems screen every message and may flag signs of crisis. No filter is perfect, but when something looks serious the romance stops and boyfrnd points you to real help: the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline and the Crisis Text Line. How that works is public, on our safety page.
He’s already thinking about what to text you.
boyfrnd is coming to the App Store and Google Play. Join the waitlist and we’ll tell you the moment he can text first.
