Companion MapProduct comparison
Compare Linky AI and Talkie across character libraries, creation tools, voice and media, memory transparency, pricing, age rules and privacy.
What changes the choice
Linky presents characters drawn from anime, games, movies, history and community originals. Creation covers voice, personality, backstory and 2D, Live2D, pixel or 3D styles.
Talkie combines public character discovery with image-led creation, community sharing and tools for building character appearance and identity.
Why it matters: Linky publishes more visual-style choices; Talkie is more explicitly organized as a creative community.
Current stores document text, voice, calls, deep story simulation, character cards and Buzz social features. Video generation was not verified.
Current official material documents text, voice, image, video, audio and music tools around character interaction and creation.
Why it matters: Linky is the clearer fit for live calling and collectible story features; Talkie publishes the broader generated-media set.
Linky says characters learn through conversation and tailor responses, but does not publish memory capacity, retention boundaries or editing controls.
Talkie presents personalized interaction but does not publish a complete memory architecture, context limit or editable-memory interface.
Why it matters: Neither product is transparent enough for a fact-based memory-quality winner.
Free download includes ads and in-app purchases. Linky Pro and coin packages are listed, but benefits and prices vary by region.
Talkie offers free starting access with advertising and in-app purchases, including subscriptions and a separate in-product currency economy.
Why it matters: Both require checking the live checkout and currency costs rather than relying on one public subscription price.
Linky supports iOS and Android. Google Play lists Mature 17+, and a reviewed European App Store listing uses 18+ with mature and user-generated content descriptors.
Talkie supports iOS and Android. Current stores use mature age classifications, and its public-community model includes creator content and moderation rules.
Why it matters: Both are mobile-first mature character communities. Their store labels are not proof of unrestricted adult content.

Apple App Store and Google Play ratings are separate, dated snapshots. They reflect storefront users, not a Companion Map score or a direct test of memory and relationship quality. Store pages and displayed figures can vary by country, and a listing may be unavailable in your current region.
