Our verdict
Character.AI is built for entertainment rather than productivity: you chat or call with millions of user-created characters, or build your own. Both app stores rate it 18+, and Character.AI has removed open-ended character chat for users under 18, backed by age-assurance checks. It is not a good fit for children or teenagers.
