Avenly offers the following tiers:
- Basic — free, with limited features
- Pro Monthly — paid monthly subscription with full feature access, including AI insights

Payment processing: All payments are processed by Apple through the App Store In-App Purchase system. We do not collect, store, or have access to your payment information.
Subscription terms:

- Subscriptions renew automatically at the end of each billing period unless canceled

6. Right of Withdrawal (EU consumers)
Under EU consumer protection law, you typically have 14 days to withdraw from a contract for digital services without giving any reason. However, by subscribing to Pro and accessing the service immediately, you expressly consent to the immediate performance of the service and acknowledge that this waives your 14-day right of withdrawal. Apple's App Store handles this consent automatically when you complete a purchase.
7. Your Content
You retain full ownership of all content you create within Avenly, including journal entries, goals, vision board entries, mood logs, and any uploaded images ("Your Content").
By creating Your Content in Avenly, you grant us a limited, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to:
- Store Your Content on our infrastructure
- Display Your Content back to you within the app
- Process Your Content through AI services for the purpose of generating insights and recommendations (Pro tier only)
This license is solely for the purpose of operating Avenly. We do not sell, share, or use Your Content for any other purpose. The license terminates when you delete the content or your account.
8. AI-Generated Content
Avenly's Pro tier uses artificial intelligence (specifically, Anthropic's Claude AI) to generate insights and recommendations based on Your Content.
Important disclaimers about AI-generated content:
Not medical or psychological advice. Avenly is a self-improvement tool. It is not a substitute for professional mental health care, therapy, counseling, or medical advice. Always consult a qualified professional for medical, psychological, or therapeutic concerns.
Not professional financial, legal, or career advice. Insights and recommendations are for personal reflection only and should not be relied upon for financial, legal, career, or other significant life decisions without consulting appropriate professionals.
May contain inaccuracies. AI-generated content may be inaccurate, incomplete, or misleading. We do not guarantee the accuracy, reliability, or appropriateness of any AI-generated insight or recommendation.
No reliance in emergencies. If you are experiencing a mental health crisis, please contact emergency services or a mental health helpline immediately. Avenly is not designed or intended to handle crisis situations.
