After searching for an app that could help organize all of it, it became clear that many reading apps are built around tracking and social features, but none of them felt right. That's how the idea of creating something different was born.
But an idea needs the right team to come to life. Ivan and Alex believed in the vision and turned it into a real app. Ivan brings years of experience building world-class digital products, while Alex brings a strong design focus and understanding of how to create something that feels intuitive, user friendly, and enjoyable to use. Ivan and Alex have more than a decade of experience designing and shipping digital products used by millions of people around the world, with some of their work recognized by international design awards and featured by Apple.
Together, they created Slovo — a digital book journal designed to help readers capture what they think and feel while they read, not just track what they finish.
In Ukrainian, Slovo means "word" — and that felt like the perfect name for an app where words matter most. Slovo is a private reading journal for people who want to do more than simply finish books. It's for readers who want to fully experience stories, enjoy the process of reading, and return to those emotions later.
