iPhone Giveaway of the Day - Persona: AI Companions

Persona — 12 AI companions. On your device.

12 hand-tuned AI personalities for the moments when you want to think out loud. Persona runs entirely on your iPhone — Apple Intelligence on iPhone 15 Pro and newer, or bring your own API key for free open-weights models like Llama, Qwen, and Phi.

THE COMPANIONS
• Study Buddy — focused tutor + pomodoro timer. Always free.
• Code Buddy — Socratic rubber-duck for Swift, Python, JS, Go, Rust.
• Language Tutor — patient AI for adaptive conversational practice.

• Fitness Coach — supportive workout friend.

WHY PERSONA
• Zero data collected. No analytics, no advertising SDKs, no developer-run server. The developer never sees what you say.
• On-device by default. Your conversations stay on this iPhone.
• You own your memory. Every fact Persona remembers is visible, editable, and deletable in the Memory archive.
• Honest pricing. Subscription only, no fake countdown timers, no manipulative dark patterns. Cancel any time.

MEMBERSHIP
• Free — Study Buddy + 200 messages a day. Open-weights BYOK supported. Memory archive included.
• Pro — Unlock all 12 companions, unlimited daily messages, priority on-device model warming, longer memory.

PRIVACY ARCHITECTURE
• No backend operated by the developer. The app talks only to Apple's on-device model service, or — when you opt in — directly to an open-weights LLM endpoint of your choice using your own API key.
• We support only open-weights models hosted by community-friendly providers (Llama 3, Qwen 2.5, Phi 3.5, Gemma 2, Mistral, DeepSeek). Brevity has no opinion on which provider you pick.
• Your API key is stored in the iOS Keychain on this device only and is never synced to iCloud.
• App Privacy label: Data Not Collected.
