AI & Development Transparency
We believe in full transparency regarding how LunaVideo is designed and built:
Visual & Graphic Assets
AI-generated imagery has been utilised during early development for background art and conceptual visuals. Our long-term roadmap includes replacing these with commissioned artwork from professional digital artists.
Collaborative Development
LunaVideo's architecture and codebase have been built with assistance from Antigravity (Advanced AI Coding Agent), accelerating prototyping, MVVM messaging patterns, and quality verification workflows.
