- Witlee — Silicon Valley Open Doors 2016 Pitch Competition - Second Runner-upWitlee is a commerce platform for influencers, who've built an audience and inspire purchases through their engaging content. By implementing e-commerce best practices, we help this underserved market grow both their audience and revenue significantly.The problem we aresolving-->>Online retailers excel at the bottom of the purchase funnel: search and decision, but fail in inspiration and browse. Consumers visit retail sites with a product in mind, and never browse the inventory retailers try to promote and expose. Online influencers have really figured out inspiration. They have a dedicated audience that comes for inspiration and ends up purchasing based on what they read and see. But the whole shopping experience for these influencers is based on simple text links, lacking all the standard best practices we're used to in e-commerce experiences (similar items, hotness signals, recommendations, search or browse paths).Our solution-->>Witlee bridges that gap by providing the best e-commerce solution for influencers today. We provide influencers with a retail standard, e-commerce storefront that's fully based on their images, and implement all the current e-commerce best practices across desktop and mobile. Our Witlee store is a fully automated solution that creates an intuitive shopping experience for their audience. Their great content, and our store, enhances conversion and engagement tremendously.

- Fretello — Made by guitarists, for guitarists, Fretello started as a simple app that our CEO, Florian, created as a companion to help him improve his skills. Seven years and many iterations later, we’re now the app of choice for guitar players of all levels who have a genuine thirst to improve.Driven by a belief that anyone can learn guitar, but noteveryone is taught well, we cut through the noise to give guitarists a comprehensive education that actually sticks. We know that proper learning takes time. We’re not here to simply teach you a few riffs and the odd song. We’re here to teach you how to really play your instrument. For us, the goal is mastery but with continual improvement. So, we’ve combined the insights of educational experts and professional musicians with advanced AI technology to create a truly innovative learning tool. That’s why we offer a structured Learn Path alongside tailored practice plans, daily guitar workouts, a large song library, and interactive jam sessions. We tackle playing guitar from every angle because that’s how confident, versatile guitarists are made. As passionate musicians, we count being able to express ourselves through music as one of life’s greatest joys. Whether with or without us, we hope you find a way to experience some of that too.

- Healthycell — Healthycell is based on the simple idea that nutrients need to be absorbed into the bloodstream and then into cells where they work to improve health. But most supplements use the same pill-form delivery technologies that were around in the 1930's, back when we were using rotary phones! Our nutrient delivery technologies have not kept pacewith the innovation of other industries. Decades of lab work show that most pills (and even powders) have low absorption. These older delivery systems compress dehydrated, large, dense, insoluble particles that are 10x to 100x too big for absorption through the small intestine where the human body absorbs most nutrients. That's why we forced the evolution of nutrition supplements with MICROGEL™.
