In An Exclusive Conversation With Sergey Volnov.

He shared his vision for creating a more transparent and trustworthy digital future through It’s AI, one of the world’s leading AI text detection platforms. Drawing from his extensive experience across banking, real estate AI, and computer vision, He told us how innovation, accuracy, and ethical AI usage are shaping the company’s mission. He highlighted the growing importance of authenticity in an AI-driven world and explained how It’s AI aims to empower individuals, educators, and businesses with confidence rather than fear

The Inspiration behind It’s AI

We started the interview by asking, “As the Founder & CEO of It’s AI, what inspired you to focus specifically on preserving authenticity in the age of rapidly evolving artificial intelligence?”

Sergey Volnov replied, “Honestly, it started with a simple realization that AI is becoming incredibly powerful, but it’s also making it harder to distinguish what’s real from what’s generated. I didn’t want to position AI as something negative; instead, I saw an opportunity to create balance. With It’s AI, the goal is to preserve authenticity while still embracing innovation. People should feel confident using AI, but they should also have tools that help them verify and trust the content they see every day.”

Building Accuracy

Times CEO Magazine: Your platform is positioned as one of the most accurate AI text detectors globally what technological philosophy or innovation gives It’s AI its competitive edge today?

Sergey Volnov replied, “What really sets us apart is our focus on accuracy and trust above everything else. We’re not just building a tool, we’re building reliability. Our models are continuously trained and improved using diverse datasets, which helps us stay ahead in detection quality. But beyond the technology, it’s about user confidence. When someone uses It’s AI, they need to believe in the result. That’s why we prioritize transparency and consistency, ensuring our platform delivers meaningful insights people can depend on in real-world situations.”

AI Experience Shaped the Vision

Times CEO Magazine: Having worked across banking, real estate AI, and computer vision startups, how did these diverse machine learning experiences shape your vision for building It’s AI?

Sergey Volnov replied, “Each stage of my career contributed something important. In banking, I learned how to build stable, production-level systems where precision matters. Later, in real estate AI, I worked on solutions that directly interacted with users, which taught me about usability and communication. Even my early experience in computer vision helped me understand complex pattern recognition. All of these experiences combined gave me both the technical depth and practical mindset needed to build It’s AI as a product that actually solves real problems.”

Empowering Users

Times CEO Magazine: Many people view AI as a disruptive force how are you positioning It’s AI as a solution that empowers individuals, educators, and businesses rather than creating fear around AI usage?

Sergey Volnov replied, “I believe most fear comes from uncertainty and lack of understanding. AI itself isn’t the problem, but it’s how we use it. At It’s AI, we’re focused on making AI more transparent, not more intimidating. By giving people the ability to detect and understand AI-generated content, we’re helping them feel more in control. The goal isn’t to limit innovation but to support responsible use. When people understand what they’re dealing with, fear naturally turns into confidence and smarter decision-making in everyday situations.”

Leadership Lessons

Times CEO Magazine: You have achieved recognition in major machine learning competitions and Olympiads. How has this strong algorithmic background influenced your leadership style and product-building mindset as a CEO?

Sergey Volnov replied, “My technical background definitely shapes how I approach leadership. I still think deeply about systems, models, and how everything works behind the scenes. But over time, I’ve realized that building a company is just as much about people as it is about technology. It’s about aligning a team around a shared vision and creating an environment where ideas can grow. Being technical helps me stay close to the product, while leadership pushes me to think bigger and focus on long-term impact.”

The Future of Ethical Digital Communication

Times CEO Magazine: With the rise of generative AI tools worldwide, what role do you believe AI detection platforms like It’s AI will play in shaping ethical digital communication and trust in content ecosystems?

Sergey Volnov replied, “AI detection platforms are quickly becoming a key part of the digital ecosystem. As AI-generated content becomes more common, the ability to verify authenticity becomes essential. Whether it’s in education, journalism, or business, trust is critical. Detection tools like It’s AI act as a layer of transparency, helping people understand what they’re engaging with. I believe this role will only grow stronger over time, as more industries recognize the importance of maintaining credibility in an increasingly AI-driven world.”

Creating the Future of Authenticity Infrastructure

Lastly we asked, “Looking ahead, what is your long-term vision for It’s AI, do you see it evolving beyond detection into a broader authenticity infrastructure for the AI-driven world?”

“The long-term vision goes far beyond detection. We want to build a complete ecosystem around authenticity in the AI era. That includes not only identifying AI-generated content but also helping users improve, verify, and take ownership of their work. As AI continues to evolve, authenticity will become one of the most valuable assets people and businesses have. Our goal is to make It’s AI a central platform that supports this shift and helps define how trust is maintained in a digital-first world.” Sergey Volnov concluded
