Yakiv Bilenko

Founder & CEO, ONDA Life

Yakiv Bilenko is the founder and CEO of ONDA Life. He works across two disciplines that rarely meet: architecture and psychology.

As an architect — trained at the Kyiv National University of Construction and Architecture (KNUCA, 2006), as an architect-urbanist — he studies and designs structured forms (domes, spheres, pyramids, zomes) and how they exert a structured influence on a person’s mental, physical and psychological state.

As a Gestalt and systemic-family therapist — trained at the MIGIS institute (2018), where he also leads groups — he developed a program for comprehensive psychological development of the person, applying modern methods of analysing a person’s state.

ONDA Life grew out of that intersection: the idea that your external and internal environments continuously shape one another, and that a person can learn to read and steer their own physiological state. Yakiv leads ONDA’s product and engineering end-to-end — the app, the data pipeline (iOS, Android, Supabase), and the open pipeline for academic data export.

FOUNDER — NOT THE SCIENTIFIC AUTHORITY

Yakiv’s expertise is architecture, psychology and Gestalt therapy, plus full-stack engineering — not clinical neuroscience or physiology. ONDA’s scientific methodology and validation are overseen by its scientific advisor. We keep that line explicit on purpose: the product is built method-first, with the science held to account by someone whose field it is. See the science behind ONDA for the evidence base and the advisor’s role.
