PRODUCT JUDGMENT, PUT INTO PRACTICE

Designing AI.
Building it, too.

I’m Andrew Yao. I’m building mstudio: a desktop video studio for writing, storyboarding, generating media, and editing with a team of AI specialists.

IN DEVELOPMENT · DESKTOP APP

From an idea to a film. Agents take on production; creators can take over in the script, canvas, or timeline at any point.

Work with your AI crewReference a script, shot, or clip and describe a specific change. A producer calls specialists as needed, and their work returns to the same project.

Current English interface in an isolated preview. Quiet Hours is a fictional project; script, conversation, and media are demo content.

01 / DEVELOPING INTENT

See it. Then decide.

Some requirements only emerge after seeing the work. Editable scripts, storyboards, and footage give creators something concrete to respond to.

02 / HUMAN CONTROL

Delegate. Or take over.

Conversation and direct editing act on the same project. Ask an Agent to revise a shot, or move a cut yourself, without transferring the work.

03 / EDIT SCOPE

Change this. Keep the rest.

Task descriptions, shot drafts, and new generations are separate actions. Keeping a local revision within its intended scope remains a product question I test.

My work: product design, creative workflows, Agent collaboration, development, and hands-on production testing.

03 / Other product work

Creative tools. Product growth. And the work between.

Beyond mstudio, I’ve worked on AI advertising workflows, knowledge tools, and product growth systems. I care about how a product gets used and why it deserves to be built.
