Real stories from creators who left IMVU for Alife Virtual.
"I spent thousands on IMVU just to upload my own creations. With Alife, it's all free. My profits are finally my own. I should have switched years ago."
- Jenna 'PixelDancer' R.
3D Clothing Designer
"The creative restrictions on IMVU were suffocating. Alife is a breath of fresh air. The adult-friendly environment means I can build and sell the content my customers actually want."
- Marcus 'SynthBuild' K.
Furniture & Environment Creator
"Getting a sim from $10/mo mind-blowing. On IMVU, that would cost a fortune. Here, I have a huge space to build my store and host events without breaking the bank."
- Anya 'EventHorizon' P.

Everything you need to know
A whole private island — not a demo. Move in today, keep it only if you love it.
Walk into a finished, professionally designed island with everything already in place. No building, no setup — just log in and live in it.
A clean, empty island of your own to build on — the same high quality hosting, with nothing in your way.
A small free island and 1,000 C$ to shop with, for as long as you log in at least once a week.
Both 7-day trials run on the same servers our paying customers use. No card or PayPal is needed to request a free trial — you must be logged in and choose an avatar. One free 7 days per sim type: you can try a premade sim and an empty sim, each once.
