About WaveVisual

WaveVisual is my independent product, built in Berlin, focused on one idea: turning sound into art you can hang on a wall, share online, or give as a gift. What started as a personal itch—visualizing the music I was making—has grown into a tool used by thousands of people every month to celebrate weddings, new babies, memorials, album releases, and everyday moments worth remembering.

Our story

I founded WaveVisual in 2020 as a side project. I had been fascinated by how beautiful waveforms look, but the generators I found online felt limiting or clunky. As a software engineer, I decided to build the editor I wished existed: fast, browser-based, and deep enough for real customization—colors, layouts, backgrounds, QR codes, and print-ready exports—without forcing people through a heavy signup wall just to try it.

Early users were friends and fellow producers; word spread to gift-givers, designers, and small businesses. Today the same spirit applies: ship a polished editor, keep improving it with real customer feedback, and stay transparent about what the product can (and cannot) do—especially around licensing and Spotify-related features.

Sergey Zelenov built the native WaveVisual mobile app that paired with the web experience. That app has since been deprecated: we no longer maintain or ship it, and our roadmap stays focused on the browser-based editor and high-quality exports.

On the web product today, I own the full stack—frontend editor, export pipelines, billing integrations, and the operational side of support. That keeps decisions fast: when something breaks, I can trace it end-to-end, fix it, and ship. It also means I am ruthless about scope: I would rather make sound waves and printing workflows excellent than chase every adjacent design feature.

Mission

I want anyone to turn a meaningful sound—a song, a voice note, a heartbeat recording—into a high-quality visual they own. That means prioritizing export quality (including large resolutions for printing), clear pricing, and human support when something breaks. I am not building a generic design suite; I am doubling down on sound waves, scanning, and the workflows around gifts and physical products.

About Ozan

I am Ozan Tunca, founder and software engineer behind WaveVisual. My background is in full-stack development and shipping end-to-end web products. I care about performance, accessibility, and the small details that make an editor feel trustworthy—save states, export fidelity, and honest messaging when a feature depends on third-party rules (for example around Spotify or video export). Outside WaveVisual I maintain side projects in the music and tooling space; links to those are below.

I also produce music, which is why waveform aesthetics matter to me personally. I use the same editor our customers use: if an export looks wrong at 300 DPI, or a Spotify edge case fails, I feel it in my own projects first. That feedback loop is how WaveVisual keeps improving without losing the plot—sound waves first, everything else second.

Milestones

  • 2020 — WaveVisual launches as a browser-based sound wave editor with core customization and downloads.
  • Growth — Thousands of active users per month creating designs for personal use, resale (Etsy and similar), and professional clients—with commercial rights included on paid exports as described in our terms.
  • Product depth — Continuous expansion of formats (including vector, PDF, and animated video where available), templates, QR experiences, and print-oriented canvas sizes.
  • Trust — Public reviews and ratings (for example on Trustpilot), alongside fast support responses and straightforward refunds where our policies allow.
