Affiliate Disclosure

Some links on AI Companions Labs are affiliate links. If you sign up for a platform through one of our links, we may earn a commission at no additional cost to you.

Our current affiliate partners

Our primary affiliate partner is Secret Desires. Every "Try Secret Desires →" button, every character page CTA, and the Editor's Pick placement on the homepage is an affiliate link.

We may add other affiliate partners over time. Any new relationship will be disclosed here and on the review page for the relevant platform.

How affiliate links are marked

Every affiliate link on the site uses the HTML attribute rel="sponsored". This is the standard signal to search engines that a link is sponsored and should not pass ranking credit.

What affiliate relationships change

Which platform we feature most often. Secret Desires is our Editor's Pick and appears in the site nav, homepage hero and character-page CTAs because it is both our top-tested platform and our commercial partner.

What affiliate relationships do not change

Category winners. If another platform genuinely wins a category — better memory, better video, better free tier — we say so on the relevant best-of page and inside the review. Our scoring uses the published methodology and is not adjusted because a platform is (or is not) a commercial partner.

What we do not accept

We do not accept payment to remove negative coverage, change a review score, or hide a competitor from a best-of list. If we ever accept a sponsored placement outside of an affiliate link, it will be clearly labelled as a sponsored placement or ad.
