AI Disclosure

Where we use AI, where we deliberately do not, and what your data does (and does not) do inside Aura.

This site uses AI in two specific places. Honesty about how is more useful than vague reassurances, so here is exactly what runs where, and what is human-authored.

Where AI is used

1. Aura, the conversational companion at /ask-aura. When you chat with Aura, your message is sent (along with optional numerology context if you have entered your birth date) to Google's Gemini Flash language model. Aura's personality, voice rules and conversational structure are defined in a system prompt we wrote and maintain; Gemini generates the specific reply. We do not store the contents of your conversation beyond what is needed to make subsequent replies feel continuous (handled by our V2 architecture, your messages remain associated only with an anonymous browser token unless you sign in).

2. Long-form content generation, partially. Some sections of the deeper articles and reports are drafted with AI assistance. Every output is human-reviewed before publishing. The factual claims, the letter-value table, the planetary correspondences, the compatibility framework, all come from Cheiro's primary texts, not from AI.

Where AI is NOT used

What Aura is and is not

Aura is designed to be a reflective companion, not an oracle. She speaks in patterns and possibilities, never absolute predictions. She is instructed not to give medical, legal, or specific financial advice. If you ever raise a safety concern (self-harm, mental health crisis), Aura is wired to bypass the LLM entirely and surface helpline numbers.

Aura makes mistakes. She is an AI language model, not a credentialed practitioner. Treat her replies as a thinking-partner, not as authoritative guidance. If something matters, run it past a real person.

Your data inside Aura

When you chat with Aura, the following happens:

We do not sell, share, or rent your conversation data to anyone. Ever.

AI inference cost & daily limits

NameAligned uses Google's free tier of Gemini, which has a global daily request limit. Aura serves users on a first-come, first-served basis until the daily quota is reached, at which point she goes into a "resting" state until quota resets the next morning. This is a deliberate choice, we run free for users without forcing accounts or upsells. If you ever see "Aura is resting tonight", come back tomorrow.

Why we are transparent about this

The spiritual / numerology space has a long history of obscuring methods. We want NameAligned to be the opposite, transparent calculations, transparent AI use, transparent pricing. The more clearly you can see how something works, the more useful it becomes to you, and the more we can be trusted with the next iteration.

Frequently asked

Is the numerology calculation done by AI?

No. All numerology math (birth number, life path, name number, compatibility) is deterministic JavaScript running on Cheiro's tables. AI is only used for Aura's conversational replies.

Does Aura store my conversations?

Yes, in our Supabase database, associated with an anonymous browser token. We do not sell or share this data. You can request deletion any time.

Why does Aura sometimes rest?

NameAligned uses Google's free Gemini tier, which has a daily request limit. When it is exhausted, Aura rests until the next reset (around 12:30 PM IST). This is how we keep Aura free for everyone without accounts or upsells.

Can AI replace a real numerologist?

No, and we do not claim to. Aura is a reflective tool. For consequential decisions, consult a real practitioner.
