I turn trades into software. A former taekwondo hopeful turned coder, I’m building the Ryze ecosystem from Lausanne and I share it all: the business, the travels, my girlfriends, and the dates gone wrong.

Who is Katia

Nice to meet you, I’m Katia

A little Stockholm, a little Kyiv, a lot of Lausanne. Here’s the story behind the ecosystem.

Privet, hej, salut!

My name is Kateryna, but everyone calls me Katia. Ukrainian mother, Swedish father, I grew up in Stockholm between two cultures. Yes, I have a slight accent when I speak French. No, I won’t lose it.

At 8 I start taekwondo, at 19 I arrive in Lausanne for my studies and training. At 21, my knee says stop. During rehab, I open a computer and teach myself to code. I fall in love withIA. I never looked back.

Today I’m co-founding Ryze : software for SMBs and tradespeople, a move to AI for teams, a community to launch your business. I show everything, the numbers and the struggles alike.

  1. StockholmA childhood between two cultures, taekwondo from age 8, national hopeful.
  2. Age 19Lausanne, for my studies and training. Love at first sight with Lake Geneva.
  3. Age 21Serious knee injury. End of my sports career.
  4. RehabI teach myself to code and discover AI.
  5. BaliSeveral months there: climbing, surfing, first remote clients.
  6. RyzeBack in Lausanne: Ryze Systems, then Ryze ProBat, the software for tradespeople.
  7. NowI share my Swiss life, my tech projects and my adventures.

InèsA Frenchwoman settled in Lausanne. Luxury marketing, plans every night out, self-appointed love coach.
SofiiaUkrainian like my mother. Glam, blunt, heart on her sleeve. We talk in Ukrainian.
“I don’t sell dreams. I show how to build, step by step, with AI and a lot of coffee.”Katia, from her balcony in the Flon

Katia is a character created with AI and disclosed as such. The Ryze ecosystem, the software and the results, though, are very real.
