Terms of service

Reading this site means accepting the terms below. In plain language: the site publishes editorial content about Joi AI as an independent third party, offers no warranty on the content, and expects readers to be adult and to use the coverage for their own decisions rather than as legal or financial advice.

Effective date: October 6, 2026. Editorial oversight: the senior editor.

Accepting these terms

By accessing joi-ai.io, you agree to these terms of service, the privacy policy and the age verification policy. If you do not agree, do not access the site. Continued use after these terms change constitutes acceptance of the updated terms. Material changes will carry an updated effective date at the top of this page.

What this site is

joi-ai.io is an independent editorial resource covering the Joi AI platform at joi.ai and adjacent AI companion products. The site is not operated by Joi AI, is not endorsed by Joi AI, and does not represent the Joi AI platform. Coverage on the site is written by human editors for human readers; source and method sit on the methodology page, and independence commitments sit on the editorial policy page.

Where readers want the Joi AI product itself rather than editorial coverage of it, the destination is joi.ai on the web or the Joi AI iOS app in the App Store. See the disambiguation on the homepage regarding the unrelated Joi Live Video Chat product at joi.mobi.

Age requirement

joi-ai.io publishes adult-oriented editorial coverage. Use of this site is restricted to persons who are at least eighteen years old, or the age of majority in their jurisdiction, whichever is higher. The age check at first visit is a self-certification. Detail on why this bar exists and how it works sits under the 18+ gate policy.

Intellectual property

Editorial content on joi-ai.io (text, page layouts and original imagery generated for the site) is owned by the site operator and made available for personal reading and non-commercial reference. Reasonable quotation with attribution for commentary and review is fine. Wholesale republication of full pages, or scraping to train models on the content, is not. Third-party trademarks referenced on the site (Joi AI, CrushOn AI, Character AI, Replika and others) remain the property of their respective owners; their use here is nominative and does not imply endorsement.

The Joi AI brand and product name are property of the operators of joi.ai; the Blade Runner 2049 reference for the origin of the "Joi" character is property of the film's rights-holders. Nothing on this site claims ownership over those marks.

Accepted use

Accepted use of joi-ai.io includes reading the coverage, following outbound links, sharing links to specific pages, and quoting reasonable extracts with attribution. Not accepted: automated scraping at volume, republication of full pages, use of the content to train commercial AI models, misrepresentation of the site's positioning, and attempts to compromise the site infrastructure.

Third-party content and links

The site links to third-party services (joi.ai, alternative platforms, research citations, review outlets). This site has no control over the content of third-party sites or the way they handle visitor data. Following an outbound link means the reader is subject to the destination site's terms and privacy policy. Coverage of third-party platforms on this site is written independently and does not constitute a recommendation to purchase; readers make their own call after reading.

Disclaimers

Content on this site is provided "as is" without warranty of any kind. Pricing figures, feature lists, promo codes and platform behaviour reflect what was documented at the time of each review pass, cross-checked against primary sources. Consumer products change; a claim accurate on the date shown may not be accurate at the moment a reader arrives. Where a specific figure matters to a purchase decision (a Neuron pack price, a Premium sticker), readers are expected to verify against joi.ai directly at the time of transacting.

Nothing on this site constitutes legal advice, financial advice, medical advice or professional counselling. Coverage of Joi AI and adjacent platforms is editorial and educational. Readers making decisions with real money or real personal risk should seek qualified advice appropriate to their situation.

Limitation of liability: the site operator is not liable for indirect, incidental or consequential damages arising from use of the coverage, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law. Where local law does not permit exclusion of certain warranties, those local rights are preserved.

Affiliate disclosure

Some outbound links on this site to Joi AI are affiliate links. If a reader clicks an affiliate link and later signs up for Premium, the site may receive a commission from the platform. This does not change the price the reader pays and does not change the coverage's honesty about the platform's downsides. Detail on how affiliate revenue is handled editorially sits on the the corrections and challenges section.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws applicable to the site's operating jurisdiction. Disputes arising under these terms will be brought in the courts of that jurisdiction unless a specific right is preserved by the reader's local consumer-protection law.

Where the terms fit into the site's framework

These conditions of use sit alongside the site's data handling policy, which covers what visitors reveal and what the site stores. The 18+ gate is a separate policy applying to who can access the coverage at all, with the § 2257 record-keeping analysis covering why federal requirements for adult content producers do not apply to editorial-only coverage.

Editorial policy for the coverage itself, including affiliate disclosure and corrections handling, sits on the independence and corrections page. Broader positioning of the site is covered under who runs it and what it covers, with source and verification rules under how facts are checked. Every content page carries the byline of senior editor Melissa Blake. The main artifact these terms apply to is the Joi AI editorial coverage.
