About

👋 Hi, I'm Vit Koval. For the past decade I've been helping engineering leaders scale their engineering teams across the US, Canada, Argentina, Brazil, Mexico, and Europe, generating $60M+ in value along the way. Then 2025 happened. Boards started asking "where's the AI?" Every engineering leader I knew was stuck — because the old answers didn't fit the new question. I kept having the same conversation. Four problems, every company, every time: → No engineers who actually master Agentic SDLC from the inside → Chaotic AI usage with no process → No proof AI is working → IP & data at risk So we built GoGloby's 4x Applied AI Engineering system around exactly those four — with one goal: help tech leaders walk into board meetings with real numbers: → 4× engineering team velocity → 30–40% lower engineering costs → 60–70% Agentic AI commit rates Clients include: Hasbro, Deel, Oyster, Zillow, DrChrono, GitLab, EverCommerce, TATA and startups backed by A16z, YCombinator. If you're a tech leader with a board deadline and a team not shipping at the speed Applied AI Engineering should make possible, that's the conversation I'm built for
