Swivl

By mlamey on June 3, 2016

Company name Satarii, Inc

Incorporated in 2010

Product: Swivl

Key Executive For Satarii, Inc.

Vladimer tetelbaum_Circle 

Co-Founder and Director

 

My Founders Parade focuses on Vladimir Tetelbaum. He is the Co-founder of Swivl, originally from Ukraine he moved to the United States 22 years ago, He did is HS, undergrad and Grad school in the United States.  Vladimir started his career as an electrical engineer and cut his teeth in Silicon Valley learning skills and getting to know how to created products.  His last company that he worked for before starting Swivl was in product design, creating products. It was here that he really learned how to take ideas and turn them into something that people wanted. He started Swivl with his Co-Founder and  business partner Brain Lamb.

Santarii Inc Designs and develops robotic video platforms solution that allows users to capture their own video without the use of a third party.  Swivl provides an integrated hardware and software solution using  video capture it provides an effective solution for use in a setting such as flipped classroom, professional development, teacher assessments, lecture capture, distance learning, teacher training,  and presentation capture.  This full solution device is pioneering the use of video for education use in a way that others are not tackling.  The device comes with a wireless device to capture audio, advance presentation resources like a PowerPoint or to start and stop the recording.  Captured videos are then stored within a cloud service allowing for sharing and downloading video in a private and secure way for students and administrators.

One of the points that Vladimir stated while I was conducting my investigation on him and his journey with Swivl was that when venturers start their journey to produce a product, more times than not the original idea looks nothing like the finished product that makes it to market.

Swivl looks like a interesting tool and It seems that Vladimir Tetelbaum had the right combination of technical know-how, a realistic understanding of getting a product to market and the courage and resources to make a great idea happen on his own. I especially like his advice about accepting that what actually gets to market might not be exactly what you imagined when you drew it up on the back of the napkin.
