Applied technology studio · One person
MetaVie is a one-person applied technology studio. We turn emerging technologies into real products, one experiment at a time.
01What we're exploring
We're less interested in technology as a list of names, and more in the moment a new capability leaves the demo, the paper or the infrastructure layer — and becomes something a person can actually use.
Language models, personal knowledge systems, generative media, computation that runs on the device in your pocket, software agents, automation, new ways of talking to a computer. Each one changes the answer to a single question:
What does this technology allow one person to actually build?
MetaVie exists to find out — by building, shipping and using the answer.
02How I build
I don't validate ideas with slide decks. I validate them with working software, and I'm the first real user of everything I make.
A prototype tells me whether a technology is worth anything in practice. Using it every day tells me what's actually wrong with it. That's where the next round starts.

03Work · Current experiments
Each MetaVie product is an experiment with a question behind it. Some are shipping. Some are still in the lab.
The Unserious Human Lab
Can self-exploration be made more accessible, visual and genuinely interesting?
OddLab uses Human Design as a lens for observing people. It turns a birth time into a chart, and the chart into a readable, video-first exploration of who you are — on iOS, in your language.
Personal expression, produced automatically
What if making a video started with thinking, instead of editing?
Speak explores whether a person's own knowledge and way of speaking can be turned into finished video — starting from a conversation rather than a timeline. It is an active experiment in personal knowledge, voice and automated video production.
There's no product page yet. When there is, it will appear here.
04Notes from the lab
Working notes from a one-person company — the technical decisions, the product judgement calls, and what actually happened. Video first, written when it helps.
The first notes are being recorded.

05About MetaVie
I use emerging technology to explore how far one person can take an idea — from thought, to software, to a product people can actually use.
That constraint isn't a limitation to apologise for. It's the experiment.
