Aura Studio: AI-Powered Creative Identity App

Aura Studio is a personal project: an AI-powered mobile app for creative identity and personal branding, built for musicians and artists. In about 2 minutes, it helps an artist understand "who they are" creatively, then generates a complete identity system: archetype, color palette, visual language, tone of voice, and content ideas.

The app guides artists through a structured flow that captures their creative DNA, then uses AI to produce a full branding toolkit they can use immediately. The goal: make professional-grade creative identity accessible to independent artists who don't have a branding team.

Onboarding Flow Role selection, vibe capture, artist name input, and an animated identity reveal with precision feedback. Skippable for guest mode.

Identity Scan Core feature: takes an artist's name and lyrics/description, then generates a complete scan (signature paragraph, themes, strengths/risks), archetype, and color palette.

Blueprint (AURA+ Premium) Identity pillars, visual motifs, tone of voice, content angles, and era themes. The deep layer of creative identity.
