Max Medyk

Maksym Medyk (born February 1, 2000), known professionally as Max Medyk, is a Ukrainian-Canadian entrepreneur, social media influencer, and the founder and CEO of ImmigrateAI Global, an AI-powered platform that helps immigrants navigate the Canadian visa and permanent residency process. He is also the founder of I'm Canada Media, a digital education platform with over 400,000 followers across social media. Medyk is recognized for leveraging artificial intelligence to simplify immigration procedures and for his advocacy on behalf of international students and skilled workers in Canada.

Early Life and Education

Medyk was born in Ternopil, Ukraine. At the age of 15, he left Ukraine to attend high school in Boise, Idaho, in the United States. In 2018, he relocated to New Zealand, and in 2019, he immigrated to Canada to pursue post-secondary studies. He enrolled in the Culinary Management program at Nova Scotia Community College (NSCC), graduating in 2021. He speaks English, Ukrainian, Russian, and French.

Career

I'm Canada Media

In 2021, Medyk founded I'm Canada Media, a content-driven media initiative designed to simplify Canadian government policy for people in Canada, including newcomers. Through platforms such as YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, and Bilibili, Medyk provides immigration-related news and explanations, amassing a combined following of over 400,000.

ImmigrateAI Global

In 2024, Medyk launched ImmigrateAI Global, a software company that applies AI to the immigration process. Often described as "the TurboTax for immigration," the platform assists users in preparing visa and permanent residency applications, flagging red flags, generating documentation checklists, and providing personalized recommendations.

ImmigrateAI Global received support and funding from Invest Nova Scotia and Springboard Atlantic. The platform expanded rapidly, reaching over 30,000 users in 140 countries by the end of 2024. Its two flagship tools are Student Visa Express and PR Compass.

In June 2025, Medyk launched PR Compass, an AI-powered tool designed to help healthcare workers, construction professionals, and other high-demand skilled immigrants navigate Canada’s PR system. The launch event was hosted by Nova Scotia Health and attended by government officials including Minister Jill Balser and MLA John A. MacDonald.

Medyk has led the company into several strategic partnerships, including with liv.rent, CanApply, and Re-Defined. He has also presented at Web Summit Vancouver 2025, where ImmigrateAI Global signed two MOUs with CanApply, a Canadian edtech platform, and Re-Defined, a career platform.

Advocacy and Recognition

Medyk’s work has been featured in several media outlets including CTV News, Global News, Entrevestor, and Invest Nova Scotia. His platforms have been credited with helping reduce visa refusals and inefficiencies, particularly among international students.

In 2025, Medyk was selected as a delegate for Canada at the G20 Young Entrepreneurs’ Alliance Summit in Johannesburg, South Africa, as announced by Futurpreneur. He was one of three Nova Scotia entrepreneurs chosen for the delegation.

He has collaborated with and interviewed several senior Canadian political figures, including Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland, Premier David Eby, and Ministers Sean Fraser, Tim Houston, Rechie Valdez, and Jenna Sudds.

Personal Life

Medyk resides in Halifax, Nova Scotia. Outside of work, he enjoys beach walks and moments of quiet away from the fast pace of entrepreneurship. He is also committed to mentoring young entrepreneurs, especially those from immigrant and underrepresented backgrounds.
