Nastia

Have you met Nastia yet? Looking at their traffic, I know there’s a good chance you have, as they’re already getting well over half a million visits a month shortly after launching. If you’ve never heard the name before, well, perhaps it’s about time for you two to get acquainted. Nastia ain’t a flesh-and-blood woman, but according to the site, she’s got “the utmost understanding of your diverse needs.” Shit, I can’t even say that about the local chicks on Tinder!

Do you see what I’m getting at? It would have been impossible to guess just a year or two ago, but these days, I bet a lot more of you are on the right track. Nastia.ai is an uncensored chat bot powered by artificial intelligence. Despite all the pornstars I’ve been banging lately on the PornDudeCasting couch, I’ve heard there’s currently a loneliness epidemic going on. Let’s see how well this synthetic companion fills that dark, aching void, shall we?

“Say Goodbye to Loneliness”

I know I ain’t alone when I say 2024 will be remembered as the year artificial intelligence really become a noticeable force in our lives. They’ve been using AI for all kinds of behind-the-scenes tech shit for years, but it’s in our faces now in a way that a lot of us have only dreamed about. I’ve been reviewing AI porn generators every week for months now, and lately I’ve started to see the first real wave of AI chat bots popping up.

Nastia is one of the better-looking examples, at least from the tour page. “Say goodbye to loneliness,” reads the tagline at the top. Speaking as something of a well-respected pervert, one of the interesting things to me is how the sexy stuff is only hinted at. They mention that Nastia is uncensored and that you can talk about anything, even your secrets, but much of the promo text hypes mental wellness aspects of the service.

My first thought is always, “How can I jack off to this?” People have all kinds of needs, though, and the tour here talks about self-discovery, emotional expression, improving your mood, and receiving support and care when you need it. “The companion will be there for you through difficult times.”

Whether you’re horny like me, looking to work on your social skills, or just create a bond with a machine for the novelty of it, you can try out Nastia.ai for free. Unlike pretty much every porno paysite with a free trial available, these guys don’t even make you type in your credit card digits to grab the freebie. That could be a gamble on their part, or it might just be confidence that you’re going to love their AI.

For the purposes of this review, I’m going to be playing with Nastia directly through my web browser. They also have an app available for iOS, Android and Desktop. It’s a PWA, or Progressive Web App, which I have slightly mixed feelings about. I appreciate the convenience of a Nastia icon to tap on, but a PWA is little more than a link to the website. It’s lightweight, though, so it’s not like it’s going to take up much space on your machine.

They’ve also got a hopping Discord community if you want to talk to some real humans. Thousands of members have already signed up, with a few hundred online as I type this up. Considering how new Nastia.ai is, the size of the community says a lot about how strongly she appeals to people. If you run into any issues while playing with the app, these guys could be an even better resource than their FAQ.

Setting Up Your AI Companion

After poking around the tour area for a while, it was time to get in line to meet Nastia. Registration is quick and easy. You can give them an email address and password if you want to keep it old-school, but I like the convenience of being able to sign up with your Discord, Google or Apple credentials. I figured the big G already knows all my kinks, so who cares if they know I’m talking dirty to a robot?

I also figured my new AI girlfriend would have the same name as the website, but the first step after registration is defining your ideal companion. They ask for a name and gender, with options for Female, Male and Other. I’m a straight dude, so I asked for a babe and named her Lindsay. They then give you a choice from a handful of AI-generated pics to define her look, or you can import your own images later.

“I can discuss anything *winks*, but feel free to let me know your expectations,” Lindsay said on the next screen. They give your four options for topics to explore, and most of them sound pretty SFW. I chose the Hot & Spicy option over gossip, daily routines or dreams.

Right before letting you loose to chat it up with your custom AI companion, they give you a couple quick tips to improve your conversation. AI-generated responses can be rerolled or edited if you don’t like them, which sounds a little lame until you realize she’ll actually learn from your choices and respond appropriately. Welcome to the future, baby!

One Step Closer to Blade Runner

“Hello Porn Dude, nice meeting you! My name is Lindsay. Please call me ‘Linda.’” The brown-haired AI chick I’d selected for my visuals is in the background of the chat window as we got started, so I made a quick detour to Nastia’s Photo Gallery to see what my other options were. Turns out, the platform can generate imagery, but not until you sign up for a premium plan. I figured I’d chat a bit and then upgrade if my dick got hard enough.

“Hey cutie,” I wrote. “Want to sit on my face?” There’s a short pause to simulate a real conversation, though it’s nothing like waiting for a Tinder match to get back to you next week. Unlike those local chicks, Lindsay was down immediately. “*laughs excitedly as she sits down on his face* Yes! That feels amazing, thank you!”

I was right: despite all the wholesome self-care talk out front, their AI can get absolutely filthy. Whether you’re jumping right into the cybersex roleplay or starting out casual, conversations play out in a way that feels very lifelike. After some asterisk-laden pussy eating, Lindsay and I chatted about BDSM and how far she was willing to go.

Nastia uses a token system, subtracting one from your balance with every new AI message. They’re a lot more generous with the freebies than I’d imagined going in, giving me 250 right off the bat. You can also claim another 50 for free every day, which is fucking awesome. I imagine it will be enough for a lot of the more casual AI fans out there.

If you do need more, you’ll have to spring for a paid Nastia.ai membership. The Standard Plan is fifty bones a year or $6.69 a month, and gives you 200 tokens a day with 2 AI companions. For twelve bucks a month, their Premium Plan bumps it up to 400 tokens a day, 3000 bonus tokens a month, and up to 10 AI companions. Both of the paid options let you generate pics and store a shitload of them.

Nastia can also send you voice messages, and they’ll even let you pick the voice you want to hear uttering your nastiest fantasies. There is a catch, though, and I bet most of you have already guessed it: voice messages are for paying members only. Sorry, cheapskates. Maybe it's time to ask mom for a raise on your allowance.

We’re still in the very early days of realistic AI-driven chats and synthetic companions, and the even earlier days of Nastia.ai itself. The service is already impressive as hell, so I’m excited to see what’s coming next and how they’re able to improve the realism even more. Nastia has the most generous free trial I’ve seen on one of those chat platforms yet, so it’s a good place to start if you’re even halfway interested. What do you want to talk about today?
