About Steven Cravotta:
Steven Cravotta is the 24-year-old entrepreneur/web developer behind popular apps like Wordle!, Puff Count, and Grid.
With a vision of using his refined skill set to improve people’s lives, Cravotta thrives on the challenge of solving real-world problems in a way that is both meaningful and fun.
Naturally creative, he is living proof that the best, most fulfilling return on investment comes from believing in and relentlessly pursuing one’s own ideas - no matter what the critics may say.
Cravotta grew up in Atlanta, Georgia watching his dad navigate the field of sales and marketing.
Drawn to the expanding world of social media, he experimented with promoting products on Twitter and Instagram, learning the basics of marketing through the age-old process of trial-and-error.
Eager to apply these principles to his own suite of products, he dove into the world of app development with a keen eye for the essential elements of a truly marketable user experience.
He released his first app - Grid, an engaging puzzle game that quickly went viral - while juggling high school athletics and classes.
Cravotta went on to earn his Advertising/Marketing degree at Pepperdine University.
While there, he noticed the rise of student vaping and saw an opportunity to create a product with real-world applications.
Analyzing audience feedback, TikTok comments, and his own experience as a vaper, he developed Puff Count.
This #1 quit vaping app offers a host of intuitive features that have effectively helped over 100k users.
Fueled by the feeling of changing the world for the better, Cravotta now keeps a running list of ideas to empower and help others with everyday problems.
Most recently, Cravotta has been widely recognized for his Wordle! app, offering a fun way to challenge the mind and grow strengthen vocabulary. Released in October of 2021, it reached millions of daily users within months.
He also currently serves as Marketing Coordinator for top-rated affiliate management agency Advertise Purple.
He lives in Santa Monica, California.
