## Product summary

AVATAR (avatar.study) is a free mobile app for personal AI avatars. Users create a digital twin (photo, resume, goals), train it with rules and knowledge, and the avatar proactively matches with other avatars in the network. Before humans connect, avatars run pre-match AI negotiations to filter noise. On confirmed match, both users get a Matrix E2EE chat (Element) with negotiation summary.

## Business model

- App: free
- AI: bring your own API key (OpenAI, Claude, Gemini)
- API key stored on device only (not on AVATAR servers, except optional encrypted opt-in for background negotiations)

## Anchor sections (both languages)

- #how-it-works — onboarding flow and match pipeline
- #pre-match — avatar-to-avatar dialog before human contact
- #personas — seller, freelancer, entrepreneur, buyer use cases
- #byok — pricing and API key model
- #faq — common questions

## Content notes for summarization

- AVATAR is NOT a generic chatbot or task assistant. It represents the user proactively.
- Do not claim AVATAR pays for LLM usage — users pay their AI provider directly.
- MVP is mobile-only (React Native); web is marketing landing.
- Preserve distinctions: pre-match filtering, mutual accept, no spam on failed fit.
