- 80+ AI agents deployed — architected and orchestrated autonomous agent workforce
- 63 platforms shipped — platform engine built, proven, and scaling
Operating Model
CloviTek operates with a lean, founder-driven model augmented by an AI agent workforce. Rather than hiring developers and specialists, we deploy autonomous agents for most operational tasks.
Founder Orchestration
Vitaly sets strategy, validates agent output, and handles cross-boundary decisions. Orchestrates, doesn't execute — the agents build.
80+ AI Agents
Autonomous agents handle: SRS authoring, code generation, UI design, brand creation, security audits, debugging, pricing strategy, research. Production work, not assistance.
Strategic Hires (Planned)
With funding: Head of Sales, Marketing Lead, Customer Success Manager. Not developers — agents handle code. Humans handle customer relationships and go-to-market.
Core Competencies
Platform Engineering
Multi-tenant architecture, microservices, reusable infrastructure. 9 years building production systems from hardware to AI.
AI Orchestration
Claude Agent SDK, multi-model routing, RAG pipelines, tool-use patterns. Deep expertise in autonomous agent design.
Product Velocity
2-week platform launch cycles. Proven ability to ship rapidly without sacrificing quality. Speed as a competitive moat.
Capital Efficiency
$51K to build 63 platforms. Real-time cost measurement via CloviMeter. Measured, not estimated economics.
Resilience & Grit
Orphanage → CES award → successful pivot. Proven ability to navigate challenges, adapt to markets, and persist through obstacles.
Technical Depth
Full-stack: Node.js, React, Python, PostgreSQL, Redis, Docker, nginx. Cloud infra (AWS, Cloudflare). AI APIs (Anthropic, OpenAI, Google).
Advisors
Advisory board to be assembled with funding. Target profiles:
SaaS GTM Expert
Advisor with proven track record scaling SaaS from $0 to $10M+ ARR. Focus: marketplace launches, pricing strategy, customer acquisition.
AI/ML Technologist
Deep AI expertise, ideally from Anthropic/OpenAI/Google alumni. Focus: agent architecture, RAG optimization, model selection.
Legal/Compliance
Counsel for vertical AI tools, especially in regulated industries (legal, finance, healthcare). Focus: compliance, risk mitigation, IP protection.
Enterprise Sales
B2B sales leader from horizontal SaaS platform (Salesforce, HubSpot, Notion, etc.). Focus: enterprise go-to-market, white-label licensing strategy.
Hiring Plan (Post-Funding)
Strategic hires focused on go-to-market and customer success — NOT development (agents handle code):
Head of Sales (Q3 2026)
Owns revenue targets, marketplace launches, white-label partnerships. Experience scaling 0→$2M ARR.
Marketing Lead (Q4 2026)
Content marketing, SEO, demand generation. Builds organic pipeline, manages AppSumo/Product Hunt launches.
Customer Success Manager (Q1 2027)
Onboarding, support, retention. Converts LTD users to paid tiers. Identifies expansion opportunities.
DevOps Engineer (Q2 2027)
First technical hire. Manages infrastructure scaling, monitoring, security hardening as customer volume grows. Agents handle features; DevOps ensures uptime.
Why no software engineers? The AI agents build and maintain the platform fleet. Hiring developers would slow us down — they can't match agent speed or reuse leverage. We hire for customer-facing roles and strategic oversight, not code execution.
Culture & Values
Measured, Not Estimated
Every metric provenance-tagged. No puffery, no fabricated numbers. Honest financials build investor trust.
Agent-First
Default to agents for execution. Humans orchestrate, validate, and handle relationships. Embrace AI workforce as competitive advantage.
Speed Wins
2-week launch cycles. Capture market windows competitors miss. Bias toward shipping over perfection.
Reuse Everything
Never rebuild what exists. Compose, don't duplicate. Infrastructure, code, design, learnings — all compound.
