+## [2.4.0] - 2025-01-10
+
+### 🎯 **NEW FEATURES - Age Preference Matching & Exact Name Matching**
+
+This release introduces intelligent age-based person matching and precise name matching capabilities to enhance person discovery and reduce false positives.
+
+### Added
+
+#### **👥 Age Preference Matching**
+
+- **🎂 Age-Based Filtering**: New `agePreference` option to prefer adults or children
+- **📅 Age Range Matching**: Support for `minAge` and `maxAge` parameters for precise age targeting
+- **🗓️ Birth Year Matching**: `birthYear` parameter for matching people born in specific years
+- **🧮 Smart Age Calculation**: Enhanced age calculation with timezone-safe date handling
+- **📊 Age-Based Scoring**: Age matching contributes 15% to overall match score for better accuracy
+
+#### **🎯 Exact Name Matching**
+
+- **✅ Precise Name Matching**: Only matches exact names, eliminating false positives from similar names
+- **🔤 Case-Insensitive**: Maintains case-insensitive matching while ensuring exact character matching
+- **⚡ Performance Optimized**: Simple string comparison for faster matching than fuzzy algorithms
+- **🛡️ Reduced False Positives**: Prevents matching "Jon" when searching for "John"
+
+#### **🔧 Enhanced Matching System**
+
+- **📈 Improved Scoring Algorithm**: Updated scoring weights for better match prioritization
+- **🎯 Candidate Filtering**: Age-based pre-filtering before scoring for more relevant results
+- **📝 Enhanced Match Reasons**: More descriptive match explanations including age-based reasons
+- **🧪 Comprehensive Testing**: 30+ new test cases covering age preferences and exact name matching
+
+### Usage Examples
+
+```typescript
+// Age preference matching
+const adultPerson = await client.people.findOrCreate({
+  firstName: 'Jane',
+  lastName: 'Smith',
+  agePreference: 'adults', // Prefer 18+ years old
+  matchStrategy: 'fuzzy'
+});
+
+// Age range matching
+const youngAdult = await client.people.findOrCreate({
+  firstName: 'Alice',
+  lastName: 'Brown',
+  minAge: 20,
+  maxAge: 30,
+  matchStrategy: 'fuzzy'
+});
+
+// Birth year matching
+const millennial = await client.people.findOrCreate({
+  firstName: 'David',
+  lastName: 'Wilson',
+  birthYear: 1990,
+  matchStrategy: 'fuzzy'
+});
+```
+
+### Technical Details
+
+- **New Helper Functions**: `calculateAgeSafe()`, `isAdult()`, `isChild()`, `matchesAgeCriteria()`
+- **Enhanced PersonMatchOptions**: Added `agePreference`, `minAge`, `maxAge`, `birthYear` properties
+- **Updated Scoring System**: Age matching now contributes 15% to overall match score
+- **Backward Compatibility**: All existing functionality remains unchanged
+
