Sam Gherman seeks an investment for Da Vinci Eye, his smart phone art projector app, in Shark Tank episode 1517. Founded in 2018, the app uses your phone to project any image onto any surface. It uses Apple’s Vision Pro passthrough feature which enables users to superimpose transparent overlays of reference images onto any surface. Whether you want to draw on paper, paint on canvas, do a big mural on a wall or even decorate a cake, the app projects an image for the would-be artist to trace.
Available for both iOs and Android phones, the app is more useful with a phone stand to project the image. If you’re using Apple’s Vision Pro headset, you can keep visibility of your canvas while viewing a semi-transparent overlay of your reference image, for total precision and accuracy in your artwork. People also use it for art therapy, physical rehabilitation, and for individuals with visual impairments.
The app is $9.99 with an upgrade to the “pro” version for $26.99 (sometimes on sale for $19.99). The phone stand is $23. The company also sells art supplies and separate apps called Mural Maker and Doodle Grid. Sam says it’s just himself and one other person running the show at DaVici Eye. He likely wants a Shark’s cash to hire more people.

A good business plan, good financials, and sales data will impress the Sharks, but he’ll need to show them HE is capable of running the company to “Shark standards.” A full pitch re-cap on Da Vinci Eye will be available on Shark Tank Blog once this episode airs.
