Getting Started
What is Orvia?
Orvia is a personal AI executive assistant. Instead of a set of productivity tools you operate, Orvia is an assistant you delegate to โ tell it your day in plain language and it plans, schedules, and protects your time.
How do I get started?
- Sign in โ Continue with Google, or sign up with email
- Browse the value carousel โ a quick 3-slide intro to what Orvia does
- Land on Home โ your command center, ready to delegate
- Talk to Orvia โ tap the AI orb and tell it what's on your mind
What can I ask Orvia to do?
Orvia is agentic โ it takes real actions, not just answers questions. Try things like:
- "Plan my afternoon around the 3pm call and protect two hours for deep work"
- "Draft a task to follow up with the design team"
- "Reschedule everything after the dentist"
- "What did I get done this week?"

Using Focus Sessions
How does Focus protect my attention?
Starting a Focus session raises a lock-screen and notification Live Activity, so your timer and session state stay visible even while your phone is away โ helping you stay in deep work without losing track of time.
What happens to my completed focus time?
It flows automatically into Analytics and counts toward any Goals you've linked it to.
