Final Pitches
Thirty teams are pitching tonight. Follow the action on Twitter, #swsg3.
It is truly amazing how much work these teams have done in just one weekend.
Thanks to SingTel’s 100mbps link, we’re streaming video to livestream.com/jfdi.
The teams are:
Funded by the Mob: a crowdfunding platform.
Radd.me: replace your business cards with this mobile app: ask others to type their email address into your iPhone, by the awesome @hakimism down from KL.
Server Pro-Active Monitoring (SPAM): a complete server management monitoring and management console in a mobile app, with plugin integration on the roadmap against different enterprise network management backends. By @subhransu and @liangzan.
RagePod: for gamers by gamers, a tournament management platform supporting multiple game environments. By @zackyap and @darrenloh.
Meet4Lunch: LBS mobile app to connect you with nearby people with similar interests for lunch.
Kville: corporations spend CSR dollars to define challenges; users complete challenges for rewards.
iDare: dare anyone nearby to do anything, and pay them if they do. Spectators vote. Awesome crowd interactivity for this pitch. Singapore’s got talent!
Tribe.IM: enterprise social networking with decentralized federation, based on XMPP.
InsureLikeMe: crowdsourced insurance policy finder using collaborative filtering and user reports. Like Pandora for insurance.
Chat.In: Location Based Chat: talk to anyone nearby. Kind of like Grindr, but not.
The Good Crowd: micro-heroism.
Parallax RapidCa: business backup and disaster recovery in the cloud.
Slidr: very polished iPad app, Guardian Eyewitness meets Corbis. Great pitch.
Pfliq: why QR code when image search can match any ad poster with its URL?
Nearhelp: find a helping hand near you with the right skills.
Swappiness: access all the assets in your neighbourhood. Isn’t Rent Tycoons doing this?
Webuilt.it: an archive for school and other lightweight projects that have no other home. Reminded of Ozzie’s Holono concept from earlier this year.
Let’s Cab Together: taxi ridesharing, mobile LBS.
Viral.ly: incentivizing social marketing using NFC phones. See also http://www.google.com/wallet/
Do Something Good: making it easy to find a volunteering activity near you. Sweet demo.
Homecook.com: just as Amazon is connecting writers directly with readers bypassing publishers and retailers, homecook connects home cooks with hungry mouths, bypassing restaurants.
Startup Anytime: record ideas and connect like minds. Think Startup Weekend pitching and team formation, but online. What Launchrock does for Startup Weekend Sundays, StartupAnytime does for Friday. Like halfbakery, but with a call to action.
MobiMart: erm.
Write Happy: comfort readings gone Web 2.0: now anyone can write a feel-good story and share it.
iAmLookingFor: erm.
Pouch: erm.
LinkyNote: like Evernote with an emphasis on delicious, but fully web-browser and cloud-based.
Sent.ly, formerly SMSchimp: distributed SMS gateway using the power of the crowd: what Bittorrent did for filesharing and MailChimp did for email marketing, Sent.ly can do for SMS!
