Mark Skrypka — Founding Engineer & Builder

I build products where AI meets real users.

From React Native apps at DataArt to AI agents and products at Cactus, Tree Labs, Recal, and Jack  I ship where the hard part is real users, not the demo.

Recal

Founder

AI meeting notes & Slack recaps

Recal turns meetings and Slack threads into structured recaps, decisions, and tasks — so teams stop taking notes and never lose context. Automatic transcription, true video understanding, and chat with everything that's been said.

Tree Labs

Co-founder & CTO

AI agents that handle the work your team can't keep up with

A studio that designs, builds, and operates production AI agents — voice, workflow, and knowledge/RAG — for ops, CX, and product teams. Custom builds, no SaaS lock-in. I own engineering direction, architecture, and technical hiring across client work.

A real timeline, overlap intact.

Founder and client work overlaps by nature. What matters is continuity — DataArt to Cactus, then Tree Labs and Jack, without inventing tidy gaps.

In early development

An AI teammate for small teams that live in chat. Give it task and status ops in plain language across Slack, Discord, and Telegram — it acts autonomously across your tools, asks approval before anything sensitive, and remembers how your team works. No dashboard.
