- **Golden Hour & Blue Hour calculator**: precise sunrise, golden hour, blue hour, and sunset times for any location worldwide

## Frequently Asked Questions

**What makes Weather Studio different from regular weather apps?**
Weather Studio is built exclusively for audiovisual production. Instead of showing raw weather data, it interprets conditions in the context of filming: viability scores, equipment recommendations, continuity risks, golden hour windows, and location-precise microclimate analysis. It also exports professional PDF reports formatted for production briefings.

**Does it work worldwide?**
Yes. AEMET data covers Spain with official precision. For all other countries, Weather Studio uses XWeather and Open-Meteo with global coverage.

**Can I get a weather report without a subscription?**
Yes. The one-time shoot report option generates a professional meteorological report for a specific day and location for €39 (VAT included), with no subscription required.

**What AI model powers the analysis?**
Weather analysis and production recommendations are generated by Claude AI (Anthropic), interpreting numerical weather data from AEMET and XWeather into actionable, production-specific language.

**Is there a mobile app?**
Yes. A native mobile app (React Native / Expo) is available for iOS and Android, sharing the same backend as the web platform.
