Prior to starting The Graph, Yaniv, Brandon and Carl worked together at Mulesoft (an API developer company acquired by Salesforce) and Co-Founded a developer tooling startup using immutable databases.

He believes that decentralization will fundamentally transform how humans cooperate and that this will only be possible once a fully decentralized protocol stack is in place; with incentives for allocating talent and resources. He identified that an open data layer that developers and users could collaborate on in a decentralized way was the missing piece to realizing Web3. Yaniv is excited to be part of this decentralization movement to help people achieve their full potential through self-determination and social coordination.
