Meet the Team
Olexiy Kryvych
Co-Founder / CEO
Olexiy Kryvych is a Ukrainian-born film director, writer, and actor based in Austin, TX.
As a working director across narrative films, commercials, branded documentaries, and music videos, he spent years searching for a pre-production tool that truly fit his workflow.
When he couldn’t find one, he decided to build it—partnering with a software architect who shared his vision.
Ivan Shcherbina
Co-Founder / CTO
Ivan Shcherbina is a Ukrainian-born software architect, free-time DP, and entrepreneur based in Austin, TX.
His dual perspective as a software architect and DP allowed him to identify a significant gap in well-designed software for pre-production.
Realizing no existing tool adequately filled this void, he decided to build one—partnering with a film director who shared his vision.
