Isnt all of this still under NDA? I dont think you can really talk about this yet.

Nah, all of these were announced during the WWDC keynote which means its public knowledge, it looks like Kinvey are a cloud based file / document store so it's showing you how you can implement similar features to iOS6 in your own apps using their API.

Ironically, this page is unreadable on my iPhone.

I love when sites tell Safari to not let me zoom and then overflow their content past the bounds of the viewport. Saves me time because I can leave the site and never come back.

Kinvey looks great, although I wonder if they'll do a Parse and change their pricing model as soon as they go out of beta?

My name is Eli and I run client services at Kinvey (they wisely don't trust me with my own HN account just yet...). While I can't promise that we'll never change any aspect of our pricing (since, as almost all growing companies, we'll almost certainly make at least a few tweaks over time), what I can promise is that we will never lose our commitment to what we've dubbed "success pricing" -- i.e. pricing that is not only compelling compared to the alternatives out there, but a model that directly aligns with a developer's growth goals. That is, our pricing will kick in and increase only when a developer directly benefits, and we feel strongly that this is the most fair and mutually beneficial way to go about pricing any such service (https://console.kinvey.com/#pricing).

Feel free to reach out directly with any additional questions / concerns -- all of my contact info can be found here: http://kinvey.com/eli-lederman

It'll be interesting to see how they compete with Parse in the long run.

At this point, it doesn't seem to offer anything different from Parse, so what would motivate me to switch if I'm already using Parse?
