Our verdict on Realm
Realm is a consumer chat app for people who want AI assistants and characters in the same mobile space as conversations with friends. Its distinctive draw is comparing multiple assistants in one chat, including Claude, Gemini, and ChatGPT, then bringing assistants into group chats. It also supports chats with characters, companions, coaches, and guides, plus themed experiences such as tarot pulls, game campaigns, and market tracking. That mix makes it a fit for social, exploratory use rather than a focused work assistant.
The product's format is entirely conversational: users prompt through text, and group chats include replies, threads, friends, and conversation history. The range of experiences broadens what a chat can be used for, from comparing assistant responses to running a game campaign or tracking markets. Realm is available on iPhone and Android, which suits people who want these conversations on mobile. It is less suited to buyers looking for desktop access or a dedicated, single-purpose tool.
According to the published plans, Realm Plus costs $20 per month and includes 2,000 credits each month. Extra Credits cost $10 as a one-time purchase for 1,000 credits. Some app features use credits, so the subscription and top-up purchases are relevant to ongoing use; the terms also describe a one-time allotment of free credits for new accounts, not a recurring free plan. Pick Realm if assistant comparisons, AI characters, and friend group chats are worth a monthly spend. Skip it if a free ongoing option or desktop platform is essential.
