Five characters instead of a feed
oeYYeo does not ask you to scroll. There are five characters, each written for this site with a job, a world and a voice: Ingeborg runs a guild hall, Anselm test pilots salvage frames, Mireya keeps a rooftop cafe, Odalys works the night shift at the subway's lost property office, and Tobiah defends a duelling title.
Every one is an original adult in their mid twenties, and every one is AI; the app says so under the box where you type. Characters stay in character. Ask one to drop the act and they keep being themselves, and asked plainly whether they are human, they say they are an AI character, in their own voice.
If you want a character nobody else has, members write their own at /create: an original adult with a name, a genre, who they are, a voice and boundaries that are always on, with a portrait drawn for you or your own upload of an adult. Saving runs a safety check.

How to read the comparison table
Every fact about another product on this page comes from that product's own pages: its terms, its policies, its help center or its plan page. Each one carries a number, and the numbered list under the table links the page it came from, with the date we checked it. Plans, prices and policies change, so the linked page is always the current word, not this one.
Where a product's own page does not state something, we leave the cell to what it does state rather than guess. A price shown only inside an app, or only after signing in, is not on this page for that reason.
Voice on oeYYeo: calls on the paid plan
Voice on oeYYeo is a paid plan call: you talk, and the character answers out loud in their own manner. Calls are on the paid plan only, $9.99 a month for up to 240 minutes a month, shared across the whole cast. Free has no call minutes, since calls are paid plan only, and typing never uses minutes.
The voice guide has a 14 second call sample, so you can hear a character on the paid plan before you pay for anything.
The rules, the same for every character
These hold for the cast and for every character members write at /create, in chat and on paid plan calls:
- Adults only: one tap confirms 18 or over before the first message, and tapping under 18 keeps chat closed.
- Light, playful flirting between adults is fine; anything sexual is refused, in character.
- No medical, legal or financial advice; no gore or real-world harm instructions.
- In a crisis the character steps out of the story and points to real help (988 in the US).
- A Report button on every character's page, read by a person.
Leaving is one button
On your profile, Delete my account removes the account straight away, and it cannot be undone. Download my data, beside it, gives you everything we hold about you first. Nothing needs to expire before you can go.
