About

Short

VLA STUDIO is an independent AI product studio founded in 2025 by François Vella, an industrial construction project manager. It designs AI-driven software and games: fast, lean on cost, often 100% local.

Long

VLA STUDIO grew out of a double life. By day, François Vella manages industrial building projects; in the evenings and at weekends, for the love of it, he builds artificial intelligence products. The studio brings the building site’s method to software: scope, measure, build, hand over.

Its first product, Vendy Studio, is live: it turns a photo of a garment laid flat into a photo of it being worn by an AI model. Its first game, SayAgain (working title), casts the player as a site foreman who directs AI-driven workers by voice.

Behind these projects sit Prisme, a test bench where every model is measured before it is chosen, and Tempest, an in-house AI game engine that runs the studio’s games. A second game is in the works.

VLA STUDIO is based in Vendin-le-Vieil, in northern France.

SayAgain

Working title

Game in design · playable prototype

As the site foreman, the player never touches the controls. Walkie-talkie in hand, they direct a crane operator, a truck driver and a forklift driver by voice: AI-driven workers, each with a personality, who carry out whatever they think they heard. All the AI runs on the player’s machine, voices included.

Vendy Studio

Live

A photo of a garment laid flat becomes a photo of it being worn by an AI model. Built for second-hand selling (Vinted, Leboncoin…), Vendy Studio picks the right AI for each garment and checks the cut-out before generating.
