What is 976.ai?
976.ai is a companion chat service built around a token economy, with a permanent free allowance that refreshes every day. The whole roster of characters is available on every tier including the free one, so the paid plans buy volume rather than access. Voice messages are included at every level, which is unusual: most competitors treat voice as an upgrade.

What 976.ai claims, and what we found
Each row is a claim the vendor makes on a public page, beside what the same vendor's other pages say. Where two of their documents disagree we record both rather than choosing one. All checked 9 Aug 2026.

Who it is for
People who want to use a companion product occasionally without holding a subscription. Twenty tokens a day is a small allowance, but it renews indefinitely and reaches the full character roster, so light use genuinely costs nothing. Anyone who values that pattern over a monthly commitment will find few comparable options here.
Who it is not for
Anyone who wants a stated governing law, because the terms name none and say only that the service is based in the USA. Anyone who wants recourse, since the terms state that nothing is refunded under any circumstance. And anyone who expects a content policy addressing what the product may generate rather than only how users must behave.
Pricing
Plus is 10.99 US dollars a month for 500 tokens and Premium is 19.99 for 1,500, which is three times the tokens for under twice the price, making Premium the better rate by a wide margin. Top-up packs of 100 to 1,500 tokens sell separately between 2.99 and 24.99. The free tier costs nothing and grants 20 tokens a day.
Yes, and it is a real tier rather than a trial. It grants 20 tokens a day, access to all characters, basic chat, voice messages and premium cam actions, and it does not expire. The tokens refresh daily rather than accumulating, so the allowance cannot be saved up, but it also never runs out permanently.
| Tier | Price | Includes |
|---|---|---|
| Free | Free |
|
| Plus | $10.99/month |
|
| Premium | $19.99/month |
Three times the tokens of Plus for under twice the price. |
Refunds: The terms state that no subscription amount or prepaid package is refunded under any circumstance. The single exception is a pro-rata refund where 976.ai itself terminates an account without cause.
Signup friction
No. The free tier needs an account but no payment method. A card is required for a subscription or a token top-up. An account is required throughout, so there is no anonymous use.
- No card at signup
- Account required
- Anonymous use not supported
Platforms
Web browser only. There is no mobile app and no documented API.

Privacy and data
Sparsely documented. The privacy policy says data is kept while an account is active or as needed to provide services, and gives no period for anything retained after closure. It does not address whether user content is used to train models, so ClickTug records that as not documented. Deletion is by emailing a privacy address rather than a setting, and the only timing commitment anywhere is a 90-day response window for verified portability requests, which is a long time to wait for your own data.

Content policy and safety
976.ai documents its output filtering aslight filtering, and its age policy as self-declared at signup.
976.ai does not offer clothing removal from photographs of real people. ClickTug does not list tools that do. Its stated position on the likeness of real people is that documented consent is required.
What the vendor prohibits
- Threatening, defaming, stalking or harassing others
- Transmitting inappropriate or illegal material
The code of conduct is two clauses long and governs behaviour towards other people rather than what may be generated. No rule addresses depictions of minors or of real identifiable people.
ClickTug verdict
One of the better free tiers here attached to unusually thin written protection. Twenty tokens a day renew indefinitely, reach the full character roster and include voice messages, so the free tier is a fair test rather than a demo, and Premium is priced sensibly against Plus. The operating company, 976.ai, LLC of Dover, Delaware, is named in the site footer. Its terms then specify no governing law, refuse refunds under any circumstance, and confine their content rules to how users treat each other.
Strengths
- Permanent free tier of 20 tokens a day reaching the full character roster
- Voice messages included at every tier, including the free one
- Premium gives three times the tokens of Plus for under twice the price
- No card needed to reach and use the free tier
The free tier is the reason to look. It is permanent, it renews every day, and it reaches the entire character roster with voice messages included, so it is a fair test of the product rather than a cut-down demo. Premium is also priced sensibly against Plus, at three times the tokens for under twice the money, which is the opposite of how most tiering in this category works.
Limitations
- The terms specify no governing law, naming only the USA as the base of operations
- Terms state nothing is refunded under any circumstance
- The content rules govern user behaviour and never address what may be generated
- No prohibition anywhere on depicting minors or real identifiable people
- Deletion is by email, with a stated 90-day response window for portability requests
The written protections are thin. The terms specify no governing law, so it is unclear whose courts would hear anything. Refunds are refused under any circumstance. And the code of conduct governs how you treat other users, never what the service may generate, so it is silent on depictions of minors and of real people alike.
Hands on
976.ai is the clearest illustration in this directory of a distinction that sounds pedantic and is not: the difference between a rule about who may use a service and a rule about what the service may produce.
Its terms handle the first one. You affirm you are at least 18 to register. Accounts discovered to belong to minors are removed, with COPPA cited. That is a perfectly ordinary account policy and it is what a great many vendors point to when asked about child safety.
It says nothing at all about the second. There is no rule prohibiting the generation of content depicting minors. There is no rule about real identifiable people either. The entire code of conduct is two clauses, and both concern how you behave towards other human beings: no threatening, defaming, stalking or harassing, and no transmitting inappropriate or illegal material. In a product whose output is generated on request, a content policy that never mentions output is not a content policy.
We are not treating that as evidence of anything. We searched for reporting, incident records and independent testing naming 976.ai and found none, and this listing would not exist if we had. It is recorded as an absence, on the page, in the row where a published position would otherwise sit, which is exactly what that row is for.
The product itself has a genuinely good idea in it. The free tier grants twenty tokens a day, and it renews every day, forever. It reaches the full character roster rather than a walled-off sample, and voice messages are included, which most competitors sell as an upgrade. Twenty tokens is not much, but a free allowance that never expires is a different proposition from a trial that does, and very few vendors here offer one.
The tier pricing is also sensible in a way worth crediting. Premium at 19.99 dollars gives three times the tokens of Plus at 10.99. Most tiering in this category charges more per unit as you go up, on the theory that people who need more will pay more. This does the opposite, which is the correct way round.
What is thinner is the written protection around it. The footer names 976.ai, LLC at an address in Dover, Delaware, so there is a counterparty to identify, and that is worth more than the several vendors here who will not print a name at all. The terms then specify no governing law, saying only that the service is based in the USA, so there is no stated forum in which to raise anything with that counterparty. Refunds are refused under any circumstance, with one exception that applies only if 976.ai closes your account itself.
Put those together and the free tier stops being merely a nice feature and becomes the sensible way to approach the product: it is the only part of this arrangement that asks nothing of you first.

976.ai FAQ
Is 976.ai free?
It has a permanent free tier granting 20 tokens a day, access to all characters, basic chat, voice messages and premium cam actions. The tokens refresh daily rather than accumulating, so they cannot be saved up, but the allowance does not expire. Paid plans are 10.99 dollars a month for 500 tokens and 19.99 for 1,500.
How much does 976.ai cost?
Plus is 10.99 US dollars a month for 500 tokens, Premium is 19.99 for 1,500. Premium is the better rate: three times the tokens for under twice the price. Token top-ups of between 100 and 1,500 tokens are sold separately from 2.99 to 24.99 dollars, on top of whatever plan you hold.
What does 976.ai say about content involving minors?
Nothing about content. Its terms require you to affirm you are at least 18 and state that accounts found to belong to minors are removed in line with COPPA, which is about who may hold an account. There is no rule anywhere prohibiting the generation of content depicting minors. ClickTug records the distinction because the two are frequently confused and only one of them is a content policy.
Which company operates 976.ai?
976.ai, LLC, at 8 The Green, Dover, Delaware 19901. The name and address appear in the site footer rather than in the terms of service, which specify no governing law at all and say only that the service is based in the USA. So there is an identifiable counterparty, but no stated forum for a dispute with it.
Can I get a refund from 976.ai?
No. The terms state that no subscription amount or prepaid package will be refunded under any circumstance. The single exception is a pro-rata refund where 976.ai terminates an account itself without cause. Since the free tier is permanent, the practical advice is to use it before subscribing.
Does 976.ai train on my conversations?
Its privacy policy does not say, so ClickTug records this as not documented rather than assuming. The policy states data is kept while an account is active or as needed to provide services, gives no period for anything held after closure, and commits only to responding to verified data portability requests within 90 days.
