The relationship
You will run into Candy AI in the header strip, the sticky bar and the in-article buttons because money changes hands through an affiliate arrangement. What that arrangement does not buy: silence about drawbacks, made-up scores, or a claim that Candy is the official trans app. It is a broad adult companion product, and we treat it as one.
What is not sponsored
Mentions of Character.AI, Talkie, SpicyChat, inRole, Miniapps, Reddit, Instagram, Polybuzz, or There’s An AI For That exist because they appeared in the US results or provider FAQs. They are not paying for those mentions.
How to recognize a paid click
Every paid click carries the word sponsored somewhere in its label or link relationship, departs this domain through /go/, and only then arrives at Candy. Any control missing that word should take you to a guide page inside the site instead.
