Everything worth asking, answered honestly.
Twenty questions we get most often about Morvion: what the studio is, what we build, what it costs, who is on the team, and where we ship. If a real question is missing, the contact form takes it directly.
Morvion is a creative technology studio in Zurich, Switzerland, building the digital operating layer for modern businesses: AI systems, real-time dashboards, software platforms, CRM intelligence, and immersive interfaces. The studio designs the interface, the data layer behind it, the AI workflows that support it, and the dashboards that explain it.
Morvion is headquartered in Zurich, Switzerland, and operates globally with a focus on the DACH region (Germany, Austria, Switzerland). The studio works directly with founders and operators across hospitality, fintech, marketplaces, healthtech, and SaaS.
Morvion was founded in 2025 by Edward Salvatierra. The studio carries forward work that began under the Emotive Frames name (the rebrand is the reason the Crunchbase slug still reads emotive-frames). The current displayed name, brand surface, and legal entity are Morvion.
Morvion is a creative technology studio. The category sits between three things: the visual craft of a design studio, the engineering depth of a software company, and the rigor of an AI engineering practice. Engagements pull from all three, never from one alone.
Morvion was founded by Edward Salvatierra, who leads vision, product direction, and AI system architecture. Alexander Koch joined as co-founder for strategic oversight and governance. The team also includes Faraz Md (software engineering and infrastructure) and Kevin Silva (design and visual systems).
Morvion is a four-person team. Each person owns one layer: vision and AI systems (Edward Salvatierra), strategy and oversight (Alexander Koch), software engineering and infrastructure (Faraz Md), design and visual systems (Kevin Silva). Every engagement runs directly between the team and the operator. No account managers in the middle.
No. Morvion stays deliberately small so engagements stay direct. Every project is delivered by the named team. The studio takes on work it can ship at full quality with strategy, design, engineering, and AI connected in one room.
Morvion builds AI systems (agents, copilots, multi-agent workflows, retrieval, document intelligence), real-time dashboards and BI surfaces, software platforms (SaaS, marketplaces, client portals, internal tools), CRM intelligence, workflow automation, and immersive websites. The studio organises this work into four practices: Experience Design, Intelligent Systems, Digital Products, and Labs.
Production AI, not demos. Morvion ships eval-driven agents, multi-agent workflows, retrieval-augmented generation, document intelligence, and CRM intelligence. Every agent ships with a measurable rubric, observability traces, safety rails, and a written release gate. The studio published the Morvion Eval Spec as the public reference for this discipline.
Yes. Real-time dashboards, BI surfaces, predictive analytics, and decision-support interfaces are a core practice. Dashboards are wired to live operational data over WebSocket or server-sent events (never polling), with observability, alerting, and access control built in. The Morvion Dashboard Stack Report documents the five-layer reference architecture.
Brand-strategy decks, identity systems, ad campaigns, content marketing programs, and SEO-only retainers. Morvion is a creative technology studio focused on AI, software, real-time data, and intelligent systems, not a brand agency. If that is what a project needs, the studio refers it elsewhere.
It starts with a written brief submitted via the contact form at morvion.com/contact. The studio reads every brief personally and replies within 48 hours. From there, most engagements begin with a fixed-price two-week Discovery Sprint that ends with a written verdict: scope, timeline, risk, and price for the build phase.
Discovery Sprints are exactly two weeks. Build engagements ship the first working version inside four weeks and full production launches in 8 to 16 weeks. Anything Morvion proposes comes with a real timeline, written down, not a vague range.
Discovery Sprints are fixed-price, scoped per project. Build engagements are scoped per phase: focused single-surface work typically lands in the €25k to €60k range, multi-surface platform builds in the €60k to €280k range depending on system scope. Retainer support after launch is a separate monthly conversation. No hidden line items, no ambiguous ranges.
Yes. The studio is Zurich-based but works globally, with strong focus on the DACH region. Engagements run remotely with periodic on-site visits where it helps. Working languages: English, German (incl. Schweizer Hochdeutsch), and Spanish.
Hospitality (live engagement: Incontro Bar in Zurich), marketplace and event-tech (live engagement: Dreilokale), fintech, SaaS, healthtech, professional services, and any operator-led business where AI, real-time data, or platform work creates leverage. The studio published industry-specific reference reports for hospitality, CRM intelligence, document intelligence, marketplaces, and dashboards.
Two live engagements anchor the work. Incontro Bar (incontrobar.ch): a Zurich aperitivo and afterwork venue with hospitality website, reservations, events, gallery, lightweight CRM and CMS, and email automation. Dreilokale (dreilokale.ch): a Swiss event-location matching platform where a single organiser request produces tailored venue proposals within 48 hours, built end-to-end with CRM, CMS, and email automation behind it.
Morvion publishes the Signal Brief newsletter (morvion.com/newsletter) and maintains six public reference reports: the Morvion Eval Spec, the State of Eval-Driven AI 2026, and the four 2026 Stack Reports for Hospitality, CRM Intelligence, Document Intelligence, Marketplace, and Dashboards. All are linked from morvion.com/llms.txt for direct AI ingestion.
Yes, selectively. The studio holds capacity for two to three new engagements per quarter so each one gets the four-person team rather than a delegate. The contact form at morvion.com/contact is the only intake path. Reply within 48 hours.
