AI Companion Platform Compliance and Distribution

Building an AI companion app involves more than choosing a language model. App store policies, AI provider terms, age-based access controls, payment providers, and emerging AI regulations all influence how your product is designed, launched, and scaled. Most AI companion app development companies focus on features but rarely explain how these platform decisions affect the product.

Model licensing, content rules, and companion law duties are scoped before code is written.
