PavloAgoshkov

I build things that ship: game platforms, games and AI pipelines, from first idea to live product.

For nearly twenty years I've built companies, and I've always been the one building. I built the Playtagon platform with my own hands, sold a bootstrapped studio to AppLovin and shipped an App Store Game of the Day in 88 countries. Along the way I raised $8.5M from investors, including Plarium. Today I ship apps, games and platforms solo with AI agents.

What I bring

Builder first

I built the Playtagon platform myself. I work in short loops: build it, put it in front of real users, keep what works and ship.

AI-native by default

I build games and apps end to end with AI agents, including my own slots for engine.io (formerly Stake Engine). For AI-native companies, I design the pipelines and agent workflows that do the work.

Games, from studio to platform

Studios, a low-code and no-code game platform, a traffic acquisition platform on Telegram and gamification systems, across mobile and regulated casino. I know how games get made, launched and sold.

Deals and connections

Signed a publishing deal with Electronic Arts, sold a studio to AppLovin, and partnered with top US sweepstakes brands, including the biggest sweepstakes casino in the world, as well as leading companies in regulated markets. I enjoy connecting people across the industry and helping them do business together.

End to end

I've worked hands-on across every part of building a product, so I know how the pieces fit.

  • ArchitectureDesigning complex systems and platforms
  • ProductProduct, UX and onboarding
  • ArtArt, animation, AI-generated art and video
  • GrowthUser acquisition, marketing, analytics and creatives
  • TeamsAI pipelines and building development teams
