Avi Muchnick (born 1979) is an artist, author, programmer and entrepreneur.

In 2002, while attending Benjamin N. Cardozo School of Law, Muchnick co-founded the popular creative contest site Worth1000, together with Israel Derdik.

In 2007, he co-founded Aviary, a company that built an award-winning[2] multimedia application suite of creative web apps, with Israel Derdik and Michael Galpert. As CEO, he raised $22 million in venture capital from Amazon founder Jeff Bezos, MIT Media Lab Director Joi Ito, LinkedIn founder Reid Hoffman, venture capital firm Spark Capital, and other notable investors.[3] In September 2011, citing stalling growth of the multimedia application suite, he shifted Aviary's business strategy to powering the photo-editing in third-party apps on web and mobile smart phones. Seeing enormous immediate growth, he chose to focus the company exclusively around this new direction[4] and closed down Aviary's consumer-facing multimedia application suite, one year later on September 15, 2012.[5] As of March 2013, Aviary announced passing 35 million monthly active users, 3,500 partners and 3 billion photos edited across its partner network.[6] Muchnick served as CEO until December 2012, when he brought on former Walmart executive Tobias Peggs to take over, at which point he stepped into the Chief Product Officer role.[7] On September 22, 2014, Aviary was acquired by Adobe Systems.[1]

Muchnick was named one of the Top 35 Innovators Under 35 by MIT's Technology Review magazine in 2010.[9]

Personal life

Prior to attending law school, Muchnick attended Queens College, where he served as Editor-in-Chief of the campus newspaper,[10] and Marsha Stern Talmudical Academy. Muchnick lives on Long Island with his wife and 3 children.[11]
