About MVAT

What is MVAT Studio?
MVAT Studio was a 39-agent pipeline that built mobile apps, from market research through App Store submission. It produced MVAT Focus and MVAT Mirror, both live on the App Store. The framework has since been retired; the apps are its lasting output.
Who is behind MVAT?
MVAT Studio was built by Ariel Agor, who designed the agent organization, its governance, and the pipeline, and owned what it shipped. The agents did the building; the founder owned the outcomes.
Are the apps really built by AI agents?
Yes. The discovery research, product specs, designs, production TypeScript, code review, tests, build configs, and store assets were produced by the agent pipeline. A human owned the final ship decision and is accountable for everything that shipped.
Where can I read the technical details?
The MVAT white paper is a technical deep-dive on the system: the 39 agents and their departments, the 10-stage pipeline, the governance model, and the behavioral analysis methodology behind Mirror, with academic citations.

How It Works

What does the 10-stage pipeline cover?
Four phases. Discovery: market research, user personas, and competitive analysis. Strategy & Design: PRDs, UX audits, accessibility reviews, and component specs. Engineering: architecture decisions, production TypeScript, code review, and 280+ tests. Ship & Monitor: build configs, store optimization, launch plans, and anomaly detection.
Which AI models do the agents use?
Tiered Claude models, matched to the stakes of each role: the most capable tier writes production code and gates quality, mid-tier models handle content and analysis, and lightweight models do read-only reporting. The tiering is documented in the white paper.

MVAT Focus

What is MVAT Focus?
A clean, distraction-free Pomodoro timer for deep work: configurable focus sessions with short and long breaks (default 25/5/15), session history to track your productivity patterns, and a dark theme designed for late-night sessions. Learn more →
How much does MVAT Focus cost?
Free forever for the core experience: 25-minute focus sessions and 7-day history. MVAT Focus Pro is a $0.99 one-time purchase — no subscription — and unlocks unlimited timer lengths, unlimited history, custom themes, and cloud sync.
Where can I download MVAT Focus?
MVAT Focus is available now on the App Store as “Focus Timer – Deep Work”. It's a free download.

MVAT Mirror

What is MVAT Mirror?
Zero-question personality profiling. Instead of questionnaires, Mirror analyzes your real communication patterns — imported from X, Facebook, and Instagram — with on-device AI to build a Big Five personality profile that updates continuously as you communicate. Learn more →
Does Mirror send my messages to a server?
No. Raw text is processed into numerical feature vectors entirely on your device; only those vectors — which contain no recoverable original text — sync to encrypted cloud storage for cross-device access. Your actual words never leave your phone. It's an architectural guarantee, not a policy promise. The Mirror page's FAQ covers this in depth.
How much does MVAT Mirror cost?
The free tier includes the Big Five framework, free Facebook and Instagram imports, and 200 X import credits. Mirror Pro is $9.99/month or $49.99 lifetime, adding 7 frameworks, unlimited sources, relationship mapping, and temporal tracking. X imports use credits because X's API bills per post read — Mirror passes that through at cost: 1,600 credits for $1.99 or 4,100 for $4.99, and credits never expire.
Where can I download MVAT Mirror?
MVAT Mirror is available now on the App Store as “Mirror – Know Your Personality”. It's a free download.
