From idea to working with big clients in 2 years
The startup was created in 2020 by two founders, an intellectual property lawyer Igor Makushinsky and a technical specialist Igor Khludov. They started their business by automating intellectual property protection in the GameDev sector and after getting some clients and raising interest in the product from different markets they decided to create a multitool for protecting any kind of product on the Internet fully automatically. Now they are working with big players such as Philips or Husqvarna and startups and small businesses as well. In their offer there are services for hardware, software, GameDev, and NFT product protection.
