# Inova Studio

> A portfolio-first product studio — designing, building, and operating a portfolio of products, and partnering with founders, studios, and companies who want to build the same way.

## What we do

Inova Studio builds products worth betting on. Our default is building and operating the portfolio; a few times a year we partner with founders, studios, and companies on builds we believe in. We reduce ambiguity before we increase scope, and we're always experimenting with emerging technologies — AI agents, conversational apps, and whatever comes next.

## Portfolio

- [FlowCP](https://flowcp.ai) — A platform for building, publishing, and operating AI-powered conversational apps: prompts, skills, tools, and widgets in one place.
- [CreatOS](https://creatos.us) — An operating system for creators: plan, publish, and run the business side of a content brand from one place.
- [Restaurant Agent](https://restaurantagent.us) — An agentic restaurant with owner, manager, server, and host agents that help operators run their business agentically.
- [BayOrders](https://bayorders.com) — Order-operations platform for businesses whose revenue moves through messages, PDFs, and approvals.
- [BuildGate](https://buildgate.dev) — A deploy-approval gate for engineering teams: reviewed deploy requests, enforced separation of duties, and a compliance exception queue that keeps every finding on the record.
- [Developer Tools](https://inova.us/developer-tools) — CLI, scaffolds, and open-source tooling used by 30k+ developers.
- [Brand Kit](https://brandkit.us) — A complete identity system (logo, type, site) for teams that need a credible market presence.

## How we build

Every product — ours or a partner's — moves through the same staged system:

1. **Scan the market** (Week 1–2) — Separate market noise from real demand. Deliverables: one-page brief, workflow map, build/reshape/walk-away call.
2. **Shape the product** (Week 2–4) — Positioning, user flows, working prototype. Deliverables: clickable prototype, pricing assumptions, build scope.
3. **Ship and operate** (Week 4–8) — Launch, metrics, iteration. Deliverables: production release, launch assets and onboarding, live metrics.

## Partnerships

- **Founders** — Co-build your first version with a team that has skin in the game: idea → first version → first revenue.
- **Studios** — Share a bet neither of us would take alone: shared thesis → joint build → shared upside.
- **Companies** — Turn an internal workflow into a product: workflow audit → build → new line of business.
