Daimon vs Tomo AI

I was looking for an AI companion to help me with productivity, something to keep me on track day to day, remind me of stuff I said I'd do and be there when I need to think out loud.
Daimon and Tomo AI kept coming up so I tried both over the last couple months. Here's how it went:
Both are AI companions you can talk to and that help you stay on top

Tomo does study planning, breaks goals into tasks, has integrations with canvas and notion if you're a student.
The problem is the pricing, it's $6.99/week or $49.99/year which is a lot for a chat app, it's iPhone only, so if you're on android you're already out and the conversation itself feels stiff, very "study assistant" energy, which makes the companion side feel like an afterthought bolted onto a planner, the memory across conversations was mid sometimes tbh

Daimon does the companion part way better and the conversations feel natural, it remembers what i told it days ago without me having to re explain, nudges me on things i mentioned wanting to do without being annoying about it.
It's totally free with some keyboard ads which i don't even notice anymore, works on android too.

Probably Daimon being free, working on both iPhone and Android, and doing the companion thing well makes it the obvious pick for most people. Tomo has its niche if you specifically need the study planner side, but as a general AI companion Daimon covers more ground on more devices without costing you a cent
