AI-powered design & engineering

Design worth keeping.
Built to grow.

I'm Yong, a designer and engineer. Trovine is my one-person studio: I shape ideas into websites and apps that help businesses grow, with AI doing the work of a whole team behind me.

  • One person, strategy to shipped product
  • Web, iOS & product ideas
  • AI-powered, personally directed

Why Trovine

One person who
moves the needle.

You work with me directly, start to finish. Behind me runs a team of AI agents that I orchestrate toward one thing: the goal your business actually cares about.

01 · Direct

You work with me

No account managers, no hand-offs, no game of telephone. The person you talk to is the person who designs, builds and ships your project.

02 · AI-powered

A studio's reach, one point of contact

I orchestrate AI agents that research, design, write, code and test in parallel. That's how one person delivers the range and speed of a full studio, with every decision still made by me.

03 · The result

Work that moves the needle

I measure success in your numbers: sign-ups, conversion, retention, revenue. Every cycle ships something real, with a metric to watch.

How I work

From first seed to scalable launch

A clear path with fixed checkpoints, so you always know what's happening, what's next and what it costs.

  1. 01

    Discover

    I learn your business, users and goals, audit what exists and agree on what success looks like in numbers.

    1–2 weeks
  2. 02

    Design

    Concepts, flows and a working prototype. AI lets me explore wider; your feedback shapes what I refine.

    2–4 weeks
  3. 03

    Build

    Production engineering in short, visible cycles. You see real progress on a live preview every week.

    4–10 weeks
  4. 04

    Launch & Grow

    A measured launch, then ongoing iteration on what the data shows. The vine keeps growing.
