The story behind Shvidlik

A mother, a designer, and an entrepreneur — turning kids' waiting time into magical family moments.

Hi, I'm Yana 👋

I'm the founder of Shvidlik. As a parent, I've spent countless hours in restaurants and hotel lobbies watching my kids get bored while we waited. I saw a gap — no truly engaging, zero-logistics tool for venues to delight families. So I built one.

Why Shvidlik exists

Shvidlik bridges the physical and digital worlds. Kids color a paper sheet at their table, scan it, and watch their creation come alive in WebAR — no app download, no logistics for the venue, just pure magic. Families stay longer, order more, and leave happier.

The mission

Turn every family visit into a memorable adventure. Give restaurants, hotels, and cruise lines a simple, elegant loyalty tool. And build a world where kids' imagination is the engine of hospitality.
