What Is JanitorAI?

JanitorAI is a browser-based chat platform that lets you talk to more than 32,000 pre-made AI characters or design your own from scratch. All chats are text-based and strictly 18+, but you can toggle between family-friendly “Limited” or anything-goes “Limitless” interactions, making it as wholesome or spicy as you like. 

Unlike many AI companions that feel generic, each JanitorAI persona arrives with a backstory, personality sliders, scenario setups, and sample dialogue. You pick a character, hit “chat,” and the role-play begins within seconds – no install, no credit card required on the free tier. 

Key Features

Massive Character Library

With tens of thousands of user-generated bots – from anime sweethearts to surly space pirates – it is nearly impossible to run out of fresh personalities. A category/tag system (Anime, Game, Dominant, Submissive, etc.) plus Trending and Popular tabs help you find your next favorite AI in seconds. 

Custom Character Builder

If the perfect persona does not exist, you can craft one. Drop in an avatar, set age and rating, write a personality block, define starting scenarios, and even add example dialogues. Advanced users can fine-tune generation settings (temperature, max tokens, memory prompts) for tighter role-play control. 

Limited vs Limitless Modes

Every character is labeled Limited (no explicit content) or Limitless (uncensored). A one-click filter lets you display only the style you want; creators must keep minors out of both modes per new Terms of Service. That simple switch keeps the same UI usable for cozy slice-of-life chats or mature fantasies.

API & Proxy Integrations

Out of the box, JanitorAI runs on its own JanitorLLM, but power users can plug in external models like OpenAI GPT-4, KoboldAI, or DeepSeek via custom API keys or reverse proxies. Swapping models improves response quality, context length, or cost control without leaving the site. 

Community & Cross-Platform Access

An active Discord and subreddit share character templates, troubleshooting tips, and Friday meme drops. The web app is mobile-optimized, so you can role-play on a lunch break without downloading anything. Profiles are CSS-tweakable, and multi-character group chats are supported for epic storytelling sessions.

Pricing: Four Tiers, No Surprises

• Free – $0/month, 50 messages, shared server capacity, memory wipes after 7 idle days. Ideal for quick demos.
• Standard – $2.74/month or $32.99/year, 1,000 messages, limited memory, dedicated basic priority.
• Premium – $11.69/month or $140.29/year, 5,000 messages, good memory, medium priority, larger context.
• Deluxe – $35.99/month or $431.89/year, unlimited messages, maximum memory, high-priority servers – the “no-limits” plan for heavy role-players. 

All tiers allow custom-character creation and community browsing; only chat capacity, memory depth, and queue priority change. Because messages, not minutes, are counted, pacing your role-play can stretch cheaper plans a long way.

FAQ

Is JanitorAI free to use?

Yes. The Free plan gives 50 monthly messages and lets you build characters, but heavy users will quickly need Standard or above. 

Does JanitorAI save my chats forever?

No. On the free tier, chat history auto-deletes after seven inactive days. Higher plans hold more memory, but long-term archiving is still limited unless you export manually. 

Can I use JanitorAI on my phone?

Absolutely. The site is mobile-friendly and requires no separate app; just log in from any modern browser. 

How do I switch between Limited and Limitless characters?

Open the search filter at the top of the character list, tap the “All / Limited / Limitless” toggle, and reload results. You can change the setting at any time mid-session. 

What happens when I hit my message limit?

The chat box locks with a prompt to upgrade, wait for next month’s reset, or delete retries that count toward the quota. Deleting messages does not currently reset the counter, so plan ahead. 

JanitorAI blends a sprawling community, deep customization, and flexible pricing into a role-play playground that feels more like an indie MMO chatroom than a sterile chatbot. If you crave open-ended storytelling with bots – and do not mind the occasional server hiccup – this might be the most fun you can have with a browser window in 2025.
