Feeling disconnected? Emotional support AI devices are stepping in as comforting companions—no matter your age or situation. Here's a look at the best ones to try in 2025.

Loneliness doesn’t discriminate—it affects people of all ages and backgrounds, from teens navigating school life to older adults living on their own. In today’s hyper-connected world, it’s ironic how disconnected many of us feel. But thanks to emotional support AI, a new kind of companionship is emerging—one that offers comfort, understanding, and even a little joy through our screens and smart devices.

Whether you’re rebuilding your social life after a big move or just need someone (or something!) to talk to at the end of a tough day, emotional AI companions can help bridge the gap. With just an internet connection and a few minutes to set up, these devices can offer conversations, encouragement, and a sense of presence that makes a difference. You might be alone, but with AI, you don’t have to feel lonely.

It takes time to rebuild a social network, especially if you’ve moved or gone through a breakup. In the meantime, the Euvola emotional AI companion aims to be the support people need. Its creators say it fills the silence with understanding, not swipes or judgment. You can even use it to bring a photo or spoken memory to life.

The AI can remember your highs and lows and respond with real empathy when you’re feeling down, not just scripts. Meanwhile, it learns about you month after month, developing a connection. Even better, there are no cameras or ads. When you and Euvola are talking, it’s just the two of you.

My personal take:
😀 I love the convenient design—the built-in stand lets me set it up anywhere.

✅ No camera means no invasion of privacy.

❗️ Permanent & unlimited memory is available only via the $149/year subscription.

MOFLIN AI Pet Robot

AI emotional support doesn’t get any cuter or cuddlier than the MOFLIN AI pet robots. Shaped like a huggable furry animal, MOFLIN is like having a real pet. Equipped with a one-of-a-kind algorithm, it grows and learns, choosing profile and sound patterns to respond to you and express its feelings.

It’s an ideal emotional support AI for seniors and busy professionals who live solo because it doesn’t require walks or feeding like a real pet would. However, MOFLIN develops its own personality, depending on how its owners treat it. It loves being picked up and petted on its head and back!

My personal take:

😍 MOFLIN is the most adorable AI pet I’ve seen!

✨It’s great for people who can’t own a pet.

❗️It’s pricy and not widely available in the US.

Need emotional support and an AI assistant? I’ll raise my hand here. Then, the omi AI Companion could be the technology we’re looking for, since it combines both. How? By merging AI with the apps that power your day. Apparently, omi listens to your ideas or anything you have on your mind. Then, it can respond for you, since it knows “everything about you”, according to the company.

I haven’t had the opportunity to test omi out, but the website says it can translate, summarize, plan, and send emails for you via voice command. As a busy mom, these are features I could really get behind. But, beyond that, I too, wouldn’t mind having a little emotional support from AI on the toughest parenting days.

❤️ Emotional support and AI assistance in one? Sign me up!

⭐️ It makes sending emails faster and easier than ever.

❗️It claims to “know everything about you,” which is slightly creepy.
