Shiva Nathan
Shiva Nathan is the founder and CEO of Onymos, a Palo Alto software company he started in 2017 to end the endless rebuilding of the same app plumbing. A former head of Intuit's Platform and Services organization who also held engineering leadership roles at Oracle and CA, he built Onymos around a 'Features-as-a-Service' model that lets companies drop in login, payments, notifications and other features without handing over their data. Onymos has since expanded into AI-driven document processing for healthcare and life sciences through its DocKnow platform, including a collaboration with Mayo Clinic.
Ben Collins
Ben Collins is the co-founder and CEO of Woz (YC W25), a San Francisco company building what he calls an 'AI App Factory' - a platform that pairs specialized AI agents with human engineering review to turn plain-English ideas into production-ready, business-grade apps without writing code. An MIT-trained engineer who spent years in venture capital and partnerships before founding, Collins built Woz with his MIT classmate of 13 years, Brad Eckert. The company raised a $6M seed round in October 2025 led by Cervin Ventures, and also ships WOZCODE, a Claude Code plugin that cuts AI coding costs by up to half.
Saad Umar
Saad Umar is the founder and lead engineer of Appzay, a mobile app development agency that turns funded startup ideas into shipped iOS and Android products. Working out of Karachi with a globally distributed team, he positions himself less as a vendor and more as a technical co-founder, owning everything from product strategy and native Swift/Kotlin engineering to App Store deployment. His shop has built and shaped apps used by millions, including the official Inter Miami CF app and the driving-rewards app OnMyWay.

Alex Greaves is the Co-Founder and CTO of FlutterFlow, a visual low-code/AI-powered app development platform he co-founded in 2020 alongside fellow ex-Googler Abel Mengistu. Built on Google's Flutter framework, FlutterFlow has grown to serve over 2 million users across 200+ countries, backed by $25.5M in Series A funding led by GV and Gradient Ventures at a ~$170M valuation. A Stanford physics and CS grad who honed his craft on Google Maps' machine learning team, Greaves now leads a platform that lets developers and non-developers alike ship native iOS, Android, and web apps in a fraction of traditional development time.
