Stephen Carroll
Stephen (Steve) Carroll is the co-founder and CEO of Findigs, a New York proptech company that turns rental tenant screening into an autonomous leasing decision. A former Wall Street structured-products salesman who then ran ops at the restaurant startup Seated, Carroll built Findigs after a bank quietly stopped mailing his rent checks and nearly got him evicted. The company started as a free consumer rent-payment app validated in NYC bars with Typeform surveys, then pivoted to B2B software. As of 2026 it powers roughly 400,000 rental units, has raised about $80M including a $32M Series C, and pitches operators on cutting evictions by up to 80%.
Oleksiy Lubinsky
Oleksiy Lubinsky (also known as Alex Lubinsky) is the co-founder and CEO of Rentberry, a San Francisco-based platform that automates the long-term rental process from search and custom-offer negotiation to digital leases, rent payments and maintenance. A Ukrainian native and UC Berkeley economics graduate who came out of investment banking, he sold his first company, the networking app City Hour, in 2015 before launching Rentberry that same year. He has pushed the company through one of crypto's most-talked-about ICOs, an AI rebrand, and serial equity-crowdfunding rounds, framing Rentberry as a bid to strip the friction, fees and middlemen out of renting.
