How to choose
- Choose the Indian languages you actually want to use, rather than treating all multilingual apps as the same.
- Decide whether you want text only or a companion who also sends photos, voice notes, or takes calls.
- Check whether memory and messages first matter to the feeling of an ongoing companion.
- Look for games or situation scenarios if you want more than an open chat.

Our verdict

Pillar is made for adults. Its companions are AI, not real people.
