Comparisons
Candy AI and OurDream: characters and media workflows
Both services bring custom characters and generated media into companion chat. We organize several experiences around your character, while OurDream also documents community sharing, remixes and group discovery.
Pictures, clips and voice have their own balance
Our tokens can fund image generation, video, voice and other paid actions. OurDream describes Dreamcoins for images, videos, calls and listening to audio messages. Its help also says purchasing more coins requires an active subscription. The two balances are unrelated; comparing the number of credits alone does not compare their value.
Free access needs a precise definition
Our published free entry includes five messages across characters, one custom character and one image. Before relying on OurDream trial access, check whether the chosen image or video action is included in that account's allowance.
For either service, separate the recurring membership charge from individual media costs. A sample image, a prepared episode and a newly generated video are different things to include in a budget.
A useful side-by-side test
Try the same character setup and media request in both services. Compare the controls you need and the total cost of continuing.
- Create an original character with the same personality and opening setting.
- Check how the editor handles changes after creation.
- Try the particular media format you want, not a different preview format.
- Read the charge and remaining balance before confirming an action.
Questions and answers
Are Candy AI tokens the same as OurDream Dreamcoins?
No. Each balance belongs to its own service, with its own actions, costs and purchase conditions.
Does a subscription make every video free on either service?
Do not assume so. We meter media separately from paid text chat, and OurDream also documents coin-funded media. Check the action price in the account.
Is an OurDream group the same as a multi-character description?
Not necessarily. A group can contain separate characters, while a single definition may ask one model to portray several roles. The available controls determine how the story runs.
