Ferni vs ChatGPT

ChatGPT is incredible for tasks—writing emails, coding, research. But for personal growth? It's a generalist that forgets you after each session.

Ferni is built specifically for coaching. It remembers your journey, responds instantly, and brings in specialized expertise when you need it. Plus, you can just call a phone number—no typing required.

Ferni vs Replika

Replika is designed for companionship and entertainment. That's a valid use case, but it's not what Ferni does.

Ferni is focused on your growth. Every conversation moves you forward—whether that's managing stress, making decisions, or building habits. It's coaching, not chat.

Ferni vs Human Coaching

Human coaches are wonderful—but they're expensive, have limited availability, and require scheduling in advance.

Ferni is always available. It costs a fraction of human coaching. And because it remembers everything, you never have to catch your coach up on context.

Note: Ferni isn't a replacement for therapy or clinical support when you need it.
