Private Media belongs to the Companion
Private Media is part of the user's local Companion experience. It can contain generated or attached media scoped to the appropriate Companion/chat.
Originals is a subscriber product
AVRE Originals is real photography/video published by AVRE for adult subscribers.
Why the names matter
Calling both systems “Vault” would make it too easy to confuse private local media with a commercial real-content subscription.
The practical rule
Companion media should never imply a real model is secretly the fictional AI, and Originals should never inherit private Companion data.
This article describes AVRE’s current product direction and general technical reasoning. Details can change as development and testing continue.
