We're a tight, technical team building the infrastructure layer the AI era deserves. We believe the best developer tools come from developers who felt the pain first.
Founder & CTO
Gal has spent years at the intersection of distributed systems and machine learning, shipping infrastructure for teams that needed to move fast without breaking things. He founded Riven after growing frustrated watching talented engineers waste days wiring together SaaS tools instead of building their actual products. His goal is to make "it just works" the default for every AI team.
Software Engineer
Orel brings a product engineering mindset to everything he builds — deeply technical but always thinking about the person on the other end of the terminal. He works across the Riven stack, from the CLI tools developers use every day to the marketing and dashboard surfaces that make the platform approachable.
The principles that guide every line of code and every product decision.
We build what matters. Every feature we ship has to make a developer's day measurably better — otherwise it doesn't ship.
Moving fast is non-negotiable. But we move fast on a solid foundation — proto contracts, typed APIs, and full observability from day one.
We've lived the pain of fragmented AI tooling. That empathy drives every product decision — from the CLI flag names to the error messages.
Transparent roadmap, public changelogs, and a genuine commitment to the developer community. We win when our users win.
We're a remote-first team today, distributed across Israel and working wherever focus happens. Our near-term plan is to establish a home base in Tel Aviv — a proper engineering hub where the team can build together, host community events, and think deeply without constant context-switching.
We're not in a rush to get big offices for the sake of it. When we open a physical space, it'll be because we have the team density to make it worth it — a place that reflects how we build: focused, well-equipped, and full of whiteboards.
If you're in Tel Aviv and want to grab coffee to talk about AI infra, distributed systems, or anything we're building — reach out. We're always happy to meet fellow builders.
We built Riven because we believe the infrastructure layer for the AI era should be unified, observable, and designed for developers first. The current landscape forces teams to stitch together a dozen SaaS products — each with its own auth, its own SDK, its own quirks — just to ship a single AI feature.
We're dedicated to changing that. One platform. One CLI. One place where your models, agents, knowledge, services, and infrastructure live together — not as a marketing pitch, but as a genuinely unified system where components know about each other.
We measure our success by how fast a new team member can go from zero to a deployed, observable AI service. When that number is under five minutes, we'll know we're on the right track.
We're always open to talking with exceptional engineers and builders.
