The origin of Senstone
The idea of Senstone came out of trying to solve personal problems. Managing work at US Department of Justice required creative approach and also having to deal with enormous amount of information and paperwork attached. This is where Nazar has found there is a need for a voice recording gadget. The original idea started as simple Reminder Button, evolved to the voice recording device with quite a few functions. In 2016 Nazar met another young entrepreneur from Ukraine Markiyan Matsekh. By that time Markiyan has already been enrolled with wearables technology. His team built world’s first Apple Watch app that allows controlling the Tesla Model S and he was among the first to build Google Glass apps, for which his team received numerous awards and industry recognition. In 2016 Nazar and Markiyan have decided to work together.
