A Candy.ai alternative in Telegram
A character you create from your own portrait idea, paid per image, without a subscription.
CraveMe is an alternative to Candy.ai for people who would rather create a character than pick one from a catalog. It runs in Telegram, generates a new face from your inspiration portrait, keeps it in every image, and charges one credit per image, paid with Telegram Stars, with no subscription.

Which one fits you
If you prefer a website with a large catalog of ready-made characters and a monthly plan, Candy.ai is designed around that.
If you want the character to start from your own idea, a face that stays the same, and to pay only for the images you get, all inside Telegram, CraveMe fits better.
