# 🎯 Virtual Consumer Persona – Live Focus Group

Bring your target market to life.

This interactive application allows students, marketers, and innovators to simulate real-world **consumer interviews** by generating a dynamic AI persona based on user-defined attributes.

---

## 🚀 What This App Does

- Creates a **realistic consumer persona** from structured inputs
- Simulates **live focus group conversations**
- Enables testing of:
  - Product ideas
  - Pricing strategies
  - Marketing messages

- Supports a **“Skeptical Consumer Mode”** for tougher, more critical feedback

---

## 🧠 How It Works

1. Define your persona:
   - Demographics
   - Occupation & income
   - Psychographics
   - Buying habits

2. Ask questions as if conducting a real interview:
   - “Would you buy this?”
   - “What would stop you?”
   - “How much would you pay?”

3. The AI responds **in character** as that consumer.
