**Multimodal** means the companion is not text-only. The same character can send a photo, a voice clip, or a short video as well as chat.
It is a packaging word. It does not mean the photos are accurate, the voice is live, or the video is unlimited.
Why it changes the pick
- Text-only uncensored chat (many SpicyChat uses) is cheaper than photo + video stacks.
- Candy AI, OurDream, and Nectar sell multimodal girlfriends; Kindroid sells multimodal **calls**.
- Every extra medium has a meter. See tokens, credits, and subscriptions.
