Platforms such as Nomi.ai and Soulmate even encourage erotic role play.
Andy Booth purchased Girlfriend.ai for $170,000 and has a waiting list up on the site. He could be sitting on a potential goldmine if he gets the development right.
I think these first name.ai and FirstnameAi.com will continue to be a niche that has decent demand, of course do your own research.
