Ask Raphael Chudaitov what keeps him up at night, and it’s not the pressure of launching startups or securing investment rounds. It’s something much deeper, and much simpler: “How do we stop technology from numbing us to what it means to be human?”
That question now guides his next chapter. After the development of Intuuv, Robovolve and Docformative Raphael’s sights are set on building technologies that go beyond fixing what's broken. He wants to set a new standard for how we design, use, and think about digital systems, especially those that shape social behavior.
The End of the Algorithm Era?
For years, social media has rewarded impulsivity, outrage, and conformity. In Raphael’s view, it’s not an accident, it’s the algorithm. His answer to this problem began with Intuuv, a platform that removes popularity metrics and deliberately caps usage. But his ambitions don’t stop there.
“I don’t want to tweak the current model,” he says. “I want to replace it.”
Raphael is now exploring ways to expand the Intuuv ecosystem to include other forms of meaningful communication, spaces for writing, mindfulness content, and community-driven storytelling. What unites them all is the absence of manipulation.
“There should be no code in the background deciding what you see next based on what will make you stay longer,” he says. “You should choose. That’s how we return agency to the user.”
Technology for Stillness
The future Raphael imagines isn’t louder. It’s quieter. He envisions digital environments where reflection is just as valued as reaction, where slowing down becomes a feature, not a flaw.
“Most platforms are built around how long they can keep you,” Raphael explains. “I’m interested in how quickly they can help you reconnect with your life.”
The Evolution of Robovolve
While Robovolve started as a way to democratize public visibility, Raphael sees its potential as something even more radical: a tool for civic voice and decentralized storytelling.
He’s exploring models where communities can use robots to broadcast collective messages, expressing culture, values, or even grief and celebration, without relying on centralized media.
“It’s a public megaphone that doesn’t belong to anyone,” he says. “Imagine a march where instead of signs, people upload messages in real time to rolling, interactive displays.”
The technology is already there. Now he’s focused on making it accessible.
Building a Regenerative Digital Culture
The next wave of Raphael’s work is guided by a philosophy of regeneration. In simple terms, what we build digitally should give more than it takes. It should restore mental clarity, rebuild trust, and foster inner and outer connection.
“We don’t have to accept the internet as it is,” Raphael says. “We get to reinvent it.”
A Future Built from Intuition
True to his nature, Raphael is letting intuition guide what comes next. He’s not chasing trends or modeling what’s already been done. Instead, he’s asking: what’s missing?
“People don’t need more places to scroll,” he says. “They need spaces where they can feel seen, where they can breathe.”
That’s what the future of social technology looks like through Raphael Chudaitov’s eyes. Not faster, not flashier, but more honest. More human.
And if he has his way, we won’t just use that future. We’ll help build it.
