“She’s still keen — you’re doing most of the heavy lifting.”

A note to the reader
“This is not a pickup line generator.”
It’s a coach reading your conversations, telling you what is actually happening, then writing the next line in your voice. The pickup-line app died five years ago. This is what came after.
From the aura field guide
How it works
Three steps. About fifteen seconds.
Show
A screenshot. Or ten.
Drop screenshots from WhatsApp, iMessage, Hinge, Bumble, Tinder, Instagram, Telegram — aura reads every platform, every colour, every timestamp format. Up to ten in one batch.
Read
The whole thread, in a line.
Interest level, plus a coaching headline that tells you what a good friend would — if they'd actually read the whole thread before answering. No metrics theatre, no jargon.
Reply
Three replies, in your voice.
Warm, wry, playful — whichever voice you picked at onboarding. One tap sends it into WhatsApp, iMessage, or Telegram — whatever app the conversation lives in.
What aura sees
Five texts. One verdict.
Here is a thread you’d have spent four minutes overthinking. And here is what aura tells you in twelve seconds.

Genuine, soft warmth. Slightly self-deprecating.

Dry wit, observational. An editor's restraint.

Earnest
Direct, sincere, plain-spoken.
Sample reply
“Someone I can build something real with. I'm done dating for fun.”

Direct
Concise, opinionated. No hedging, no padding.
Sample reply
“Someone interesting. Ask again Friday.”

The loop
Every win raises your rank.
aura writes. You send. They reply. When something lands — a date, a callback, a conversation that turned the corner — you mark it a win and the score ticks up. Six ranks, one masthead.
The only delta
No granular outcomes. No “left on read” penalty. Just one quiet button at the foot of every chatroom — tap it when something lands, leave it alone when it doesn’t.

Privacy
We treat your screenshots like healthcare data.
Because that’s what they are — intimate conversations with identifiable third parties who never chose to opt in. Here is what we do about that.
Encrypted at rest
Paid-tier chat content is column-encrypted with pgcrypto; the key lives in Supabase Vault, never in code or logs. Free-tier rows auto-delete within 24 hours.
Moderated before it's stored
Every screenshot passes server-side moderation — OpenAI multimodal + a CSAM hash check — before it leaves quarantine. We never train on your conversations.
Biometric lock on the Rooms tab
Face ID or fingerprint gate on iOS and Android. Enabled in one tap. Failing the gate forces a magic-link re-auth — no indefinite retry loop.
One-tap delete, everywhere
Account deletion wipes your rows, your Storage prefix, your RevenueCat subscriber, and your OneSignal tag. Tested. GDPR-grade. No forms to fill in.

Frequently asked
The honest questions.
What data do you train on?
None of your chats. Ever. Free-tier conversations are purged within 24 hours; paid-tier conversations are encrypted at rest until you delete your account. They never enter a training pipeline — ours or anyone else's.Can I try it without paying?
Yes. Sign up, set your voice, create your first room — all free. The moment you upload a screenshot or open the bio rewrites, you'll see the trial offer: three days free, no card up front. After three days you're billed $7.99 / week unless you cancel from your App Store or Play settings.Will it sound like AI?
Not if we've done our job. You pick a voice at onboarding — Warm, Wry, Earnest, Playful, Direct, or Poetic — and every reply is written in that voice. The first rule in our system prompt is: replies must sound like a real human wrote them.How is this different from ChatGPT?
ChatGPT is a general assistant. aura is a specialist. We built the conversation-intelligence model (interest meter, trend headline, coaching read), the voice system, the outcome flywheel, and a UI designed for one job. ChatGPT can write a reply. aura reads the whole thread first.Which messaging platforms does it read?
All of them. Extraction is platform-agnostic — we read the messages visible in your screenshot, not a platform SDK. WhatsApp, iMessage, Hinge, Bumble, Tinder, Instagram, Telegram, Messenger, Snapchat, Signal. If you can screenshot it, aura can read it.Can I cancel?
Yes, in one tap, from your App Store or Play Store subscription settings. No form, no email, no call. If you cancel during the 3-day trial, you're never charged.Is the Win Wall really anonymous?
Yes. Posts carry only the voice you used and the outcome — no username, no avatar, no chat content, no third-party identifiers. Service-role staff can see posters for moderation; nothing shipped to the client reveals identity.What about the other person's privacy?
Before any conversation reaches our AI, we redact phone numbers, emails, addresses, and non-user names. We never store non-user identifiers. They don't get a profile in our system — they don't exist as a row.
Launch
aura is coming to iOS and Android.
Leave your email. We’ll let you know the morning it drops. You’ll get a short welcome note, three quick emails that week showing you how to make the most of it, then nothing you didn’t ask for.
