In the growing sea of "AI for X" solutions, how does your product differentiate itself from others? E.g. what's the benefit of using Fynk document analysis vs. let's say vanilla GPT?

This gives me a chilling reminder of The Swarm - A Novel Of The Deep by Frank Schätzing. Interesting novel with quite some scientific background.

Funding secured. ;)

Yes, I'm also looking forward to what the crypto engineering community has to say about this algo after it has been peer-reviewed more often. If it holds the promises then it will would be VERY huge.

Have you heard about https://prescreen.io/ ? We too have a clear pricing. ;) Full disclosure, I'm one of the co-founders.

Very interesting article. I mostly agree with the idea of social fragmentation. I think it is no coincidence that we like to call ourselves "individuals". Maybe the thought reflects our current zeitgeist but it seems almost natural (nowadays) for humans to emphasize our differences / our individualism. However, it seems very interesting, that as much as we like to differentiate ourselves we also tend to some kind of collectivism (e.g. trending sports, technology (iPhone/Android), etc.), even working for the same corporations (Google/Facebook/Apple...) which also appears contrary to the article. It may be true that the speed of change is accelerating but I can't agree with the idea that we already reached a fully fragmented society (yet) which is here to stay.

Another interesting part was the analogy to Ford's vertical integration. The trend definitely went from fully integrated mega corps to fragmented networks of corporations. The car industry is a perfect example. It would be exciting to know if PG thought about Tesla/SpaceX and it's current move towards a higher level of integration (producing more and more parts by themselves) in order to control the quality of their products. It may be sign that we are on the edge or maximum of fragmentation and there are trends emerging which pull us back into consolidation (maybe in another form than it used to).

Feels weird watching this from my mobile phone. ;)

I've been using this since the very early alpha status. It's a really nice storage solution with a very sophisticated technology too.

For anyone curious about the technology behind here is an early tech talk from one of the founders. It may be a little bit outdated now but still interesting: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3xKZ4KGkQY8

I really like the look and feel of your frontpage! The "retina ready" badge on the right side made me chuckle.. ^^

Thank's for pointing this out. Although I'm not an apple fan, this sounds pretty nice. :)

Since pebble started shipping and already got nice coverage and feedback from the community it sounds reasonable that apple might work on it's "i" equivalent.

Amazing! It actually sounds better than many other dubstep sounds.. :)

Out of 850 startups we got voted among the top 8 during the Pioneers Festival. This is our story. :)

well good question, while importing the fb data from the user we count all the comments,likes, and tagged-photos and aggregate them to a score.. this score is then used to measure how good you know each other. it took us a time until we figured out how to weight the different parameters but i think the outcome is quite accurate!

We just released our new feature, TalentMash two hours ago. It let's you import your best friends so you can rate their talents.

Any feedback is highly appreciated! Questions too of course. :)

Not quiet an iPhone 5 parody, but still brilliant work :D

It could be some kind of hidden circuit maybe. Or some kind of inductive energy?

With MercuryPuzzle you can self-evaluate your skills and strengths and receive interesting job offers from companies you choose.

Today we launched into open bet and are thankful for every comment and feedback!

Everytime a user requests a code using this checkbox a "coffee-bell" rings in our office :D

Thanks! Privacy is extremely important to us. Our main goal was that everyone has complete control about who can see your data. You can explicitly set each section to private, your contacts, or public. Furthermore, before you haven't shared your profile info to a company they are not allowed to access your data.

Additional Info:

MercuryPuzzle let's you self-evaluate your skills and talents and gives you the chance to find your dream job.

After one year of development we partnered with companies like Microsoft and Oracle (more to follow) to achieve this goal.

Here is my profile as an example (you can control in detail who can see your assessment data): https://mercurypuzzle.com/alexander-birke/assessment

Thank you very much for your feedback. We currently limit file upload to 1mb for the test account. But I fully agree, disabling it would be more secure.

I hardly post comments here but I have to thank you bub! I quit drinking for 3 years and unfortunately started it a year ago again.

I quit drinking because of my aunt who died because of liver cirrhosis (result of alcohol addiction), started it again because the last year wasn't an easy one for me. :/

I was very proud that I could stop drinking and still having fun. I had the exact same moment you mentioned, where some random girl told me that I was sooo drunk yesterday and I just replied.. nope, I was sober. :D

During my time drinking I lost extremely much of my former productivity. I have to admit I don't regret every drunk evening, there were some really good too! But I definitely lost mental strength during my drinking time.

I had to lough at the point where you wrote about the lost money and in my case gained weight. That's all true too.

I'll quit drinking again, one more time. :D

wow, this is really awesome!

I personally prefer this one: https://99designs.com/logo-design/contests/logo-startup-drea...

It doesn't look that much like a cloud / hosting service, covers the idea of growing and looks fresh.

Altough I don't think it's perfekt yet, it could work.

Yepp, defenitely. Some spam filters don't like emails without subject.

Nice idea, but I currently use chrome without bookmark menu. :/ Some kind of plugin would be nice.

Maybe an entry to the context menu would be the best.

Nearly every good ad campaign, and many successful brand names are somehow controversial. I think the name is just brilliant. :)
