The short version

  • Only Replika has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: ADP no pricing is published; every quote is custom and driven by employee count and which services are taken; Replika the App Store listing confirms Replika (Luka, Inc.) is free to download with core messaging available at no cost, but premium features are gated behind in-app purchases with no price figures disclosed in the listing.
  • They diverge on capability: ADP covers Payroll, Replika covers Conversational AI.

Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

ADP

  • No pricing is published; every quote is custom and driven by employee count and which services are taken
  • Split into three separate products by company size, RUN for 1 to 49 employees, Workforce Now for 50 and above, and Lyric HCM for enterprise, so growing across a threshold means changing product rather than plan

Replika

  • The App Store listing confirms Replika (Luka, Inc.) is free to download with core messaging available at no cost, but premium features are gated behind in-app purchases with no price figures disclosed in the listing.
