With the weendy app, you can send and get real time information about all of the beaches that are in the area from people that are actually there. People can report if the wind and waves are good or if are dead and let others know where and when to hit the beach.

Innovation:

weendy is different in four key ways:
1) Forecasts are just predictions.
2) Land and sea breezes are impossible to predict.
3) Wind stations are stationary. We can ride anywhere.
4) Both Forecasts and Wind stations don't provide any quality value. Is it gusty? Choppy? Or just plain overcrowded?

Our vision was to build a simple tool that would do a simple thing: help people stop chasing the wind.
weendy overcomes the above limitations by transforming smartphones to mobile wind stations:
Each member makes a video report from the beach, estimates wind and shares it with every other member in the service.
A multicriteria algorithm, decides which user should be immediately notified about a report (how far is it? how windy is it? who made the report?) and reaches them using push technology.

Result:
- stationary problem: solved, members can go anywhere
- predictions problem: solved, real time video reports
- local phenomena: solved, members are there to report them

plus the added value of comments by other members

Seeking funding?:

As we are a team of two, we have to handle with so many different things(customer development,product development, marketing). At this phase, we need to grow our business in order to be faster, run the business model and spread the word worldwide. And that's why we are seeking for funding.

Taxibeat

taxibeat

Taxibeat is an easy to use, convenient and contemporary way to hail and book a taxi. It uses the mobile technology to connect taxi drivers and passengers in the same way that Google AdWords connects advertisers and Internet users: taxi drivers advertise their location and availability to nearby passengers who are searching for a taxi using their smartphone. If a passenger selects and calls a driver, then the driver pays Taxibeat a commission.

Innovation:

Taxibeat’s innovation lies in that, it takes a totally fragmented market and transforms it to an integrated marketplace, where thousands of individual professionals can be part of. Gradually it becomes a transparent, self regulated market, where each individual has all information it needs to make decisions on where to buy from, or what to offer.

Passengers know what nearby taxis are available, and where. They know details about the cars and drivers, and also the feedback of other passengers about each driver. Drivers also help each other by "flagging" bad or dangerous customers, so there is a two-sided community supported service.

Seeking funding?:

Taxibeat has secured a round of seed funding through Openfund and does not seek additional funding for the moment.

As anyone who has a page on facebook knows that the hardest thing is to get Fans to add to your page. Many Facebook developers create pages for their apps as a means to promote the app. The main problem is that its difficult for people to find pages they like without going through the very unfriendly Facebook Page Directory or random search results. This is where Looking4Pages comes in. It displays a wide array of different pages based on user submissions and not popularity like in the Facebook page directory.
