About the studio
Small. Slow. Considered.
Munetic is a one-person studio based in Yerevan. It exists because most consumer software feels rushed and a little unkind to the people using it.
I make the opposite: products you can put on your home screen and forget you’re using, tools that measure carefully before they recommend anything.
I ship slowly, because the second version of something is always better than the first. Everything gets tested on real phones, on slow networks, with the brightness turned all the way down.
If something I made works for you, write to me. If it doesn’t, write anyway.
The maker
One person. Every product.
My name is Menua Vardanyan. I write the code, design the icons, answer the support emails and read every review myself.
I started with games. Only Jump Up! went on Google Play first, and people still submit speedruns for it. Then DockTerm, because I live in a terminal and wanted the tool to come to me instead of the other way around. Then GlowAI, because I wanted an honest answer about my own face and every app I tried handed me a compliment instead of a measurement.
GlowAI is where most of my time goes now. It takes 75 geometric measurements drawn from published facial anthropometry, so the same photo always returns the same numbers. It reached 2,300 registered users on iOS and Android in its first six weeks, with nothing spent on marketing. In 2026 it reached the semifinal of Seaside Startup Summit Armenia.
I also work at Chessify, building tools for chess players.
I don’t want to build a large company quickly. I want to build a few things that still work in five years.
I’m sixteen.
