Story
AL ElAwar
Also known as Ayce · Ayce of Space
AL ElAwar, known as Ayce, is an American-born capitalist entrepreneur building toward philanthropy. His focus is tech and humanity. He builds, operates, and brokers domains across the internet; works deep lanes in finance, real estate, and law; and is the founder and CEO of Insight Media. He is a father of two and a cancer survivor who kept building — using AI practically to organize, manage, and facilitate recovery while the wider world fixated on AI alone. A fierce advocate for 3D: only human beings explore space with genuine curiosity — consciousness meeting information in three dimensions. Originator of DBCA (Data Based Customer Acquisition). FAA Part 107–certified drone pilot. Applicant in ICANN’s 2026 new gTLD round (ASP). Everything visible is just getting started.
Upbringing
ElAwar’s early years are rooted in Greater Los Angeles and San Bernardino County. After graduating high school in 2013, he turned toward the air: in 2014 he built his first drone and founded Grandeur Videography — the company that would become Insight Media. The craft began there: framing space from above, walking it in three dimensions, and learning how attention moves markets.
Public reviews from those early years still name the Grandeur Videography lineage. Insight Media’s Thumbtack presence has historically held around a 4.8-star rating — a quiet record of work done, client by client.
AI, recovery, and 3D
While much of the world fixates on AI as spectacle, ElAwar used it practically — to organize, manage, and facilitate recovery on a serious health journey. The tools were quiet; the work of staying upright was not.
His deeper drive is 3D. Only human beings explore space with genuine curiosity: consciousness meeting information in three dimensions. Through Insight Media he builds Cloud Capture and walkable space — places people can enter, look around, and feel present. That passion sits beside domains, DBCA, and the holding company as a major through-line, not a side project.
