Three trajectories that sum into one direction
An idea, people and technology resolve into a real product. It is a vector sum — a direction none of them reaches alone.
Why it works
Each part covers what the others lack: the idea sets the direction, people bring expertise, time and execution, and technology provides the leverage — what once required an institute is now carried by a team of six.
Veterans & defenders
- Build your own product — or the one the state and communities need
- Reskill: PM/PO, development, analytics or QA
- Gain real, hands-on experience
Students & beginners
- First real team-work experience
- Entry into DeepTech, GovTech and HealthTech — and beyond
- Mentorship from senior engineers
Products
- Solutions for Ukraine and the world
- From computer vision to autonomy and logistics
- Successful solutions scale beyond the pilot
Where solutions go
We are not tied to a single technology — nor only to technology. Teams take on problems where they can create real civilian and humanitarian value, and where what is needed is not a program for a computer but a programme of care, we build that instead.
Civilian IT
General-purpose products, services and tools.
For state & society
Solutions for government, communities, recovery and safety.
Humanitarian & recovery
Health, accessibility, environment and community rebuilding.
Next door — SYNTONIA
When what is needed is a person, not a product — free social services and psychological support.
A through-line mission runs across every programme: reintegrating veterans through real work, opening doors for students and beginners, and bringing Ukraine closer to EU membership.
Veteran reintegration
Not courses — real roles: veterans become product managers, engineers, analysts and QA in the teams building the products below — gaining a profession and social reintegration.
A door for students & beginners
A first real team experience even with no portfolio: development, design, analytics or QA under senior mentorship — and projects worth showing.
European integration
Our products close concrete state needs and bring Ukraine closer to EU membership.
Four programmes in priority order where our DeepTech stack delivers civilian and humanitarian value — and where we build partnerships with institutional donors.
GreenTech — eco-monitoring
Satellite and AI monitoring of war impact — forests, water, soil; tools for smart energy grids. A way into green-recovery funding, the EU Green Deal and LIFE.
GovTech — state & communities
Local digital services, open data and GIS for communities; transparent-recovery dashboards on DREAM data. Problem: DREAM is mandatory from 2026, yet most communities lack IT capacity.
HealthTech & AssistiveTech
Health, rehabilitation and accessibility: telerehabilitation, digital mental health, prosthetic control, AI assistants and navigation for people with disabilities — aligned with the National Barrier-Free Strategy. Need is scaling into the millions, yet almost no one applies deeptech here.
ReconstructionTech & BuildTech
AI- and satellite-based damage assessment, digital twins of communities, energy-efficiency tools. Tied to DREAM and the damaged-property register; $588bn in recovery needs.

Find your role
Whether you are a veteran, a defender, a student, a researcher, a beginner, a senior engineer or a partner — there is a place for you.
Veterans & defenders
Build your own product or switch careers — product/project manager, developer, analyst, QA tester or domain expert. Several of you can take on one project, each in your own role, alongside your own people.
Students & beginners
Your first real team experience — even with no portfolio yet. Development, design, analytics or QA under senior mentorship, a way into DeepTech, GovTech and HealthTech, and projects worth showing.
Mentors
Senior engineers and product leaders — pass on your expertise and lead teams. Flexible volunteering: a few hours a week give the product quality and you impact and community.
Partners & donors
Back the direction with grants, pilots or expertise and gain access to the ecosystem and ready teams. Your contribution becomes not reports but real solutions for Ukraine and the world.
Volunteers
You do not have to be an engineer. Lawyers, accountants, psychologists, media people, drivers, coordinators — we need hands and heads, not only code. Flexible format: from a one-off task to ongoing involvement.
Communities & public bodies
Got a problem with no budget and no contractor? Describe it. We cannot promise to take every one, but this is exactly where our projects come from — and the result stays with you, with you under a perpetual, free licence, with code and documentation.
Not ready to apply yet?
Leave your email — we will write once, when the first teams start. No newsletters, no sharing with anyone.
Ecosystem & partnerships
We operate within Ukraine's technology and innovation ecosystem and are open to partnerships — with donors and funds, universities, industry and government institutions.
Donors & funds
Grants and pilots that become real solutions, not reports.
Universities
Students, research and joint educational programmes.
Industry
Mentorship, technology and a path to deployment.
Government
Real needs, pilot grounds, scaling.
Veteran communities
A direct line to the people we build for — and who build with us.
Media
Telling the story of what already works, not of intentions.
Corporate partnership & CSR
We do not sell a logo on a banner. Partnering with us means concrete involvement: your engineers mentor a team, your infrastructure becomes the development environment, your budget covers a programme rather than a line in a report.
- Mentoring hours from your seniors — the scarcest resource we have
- Cloud credits, licences, equipment, premises
- A joint pilot: your problem, our team
- Hiring our graduates — we produce people, not certificates
- Named support for a programme, with a public report
