| We put bands on the map. Our free music discovery app brings users into the real world to find exclusive music and engage with artists. Users download our free app, and similar to Pokémon GO they follow a map to capture exclusive free music. We then link the song to the artist's streaming (Spotify, Apple Music) and social platforms (YouTube,IG,Bandcamp) to consume more of the artist's content.Users are rewarded to re-hiding songs in new locations and artists receive full analytics into song plays at a hyper geographic level. Artists use this info to plan tours. Unlike Spotify and YouTube we also allow artists to email users directly inside our app.The app is free for both users and artists and complements existing streaming and social platforms by solving the problem of discoverability in a fun gamified way. | Seed / Oct 01, 2021 | ||

| Skygauge Robotics has reinvented the drone to perform a wider range of industrial work. Their first application is taking metal thickness checks on industrial structures, bridges, ships, and wind turbines. Instead of having workers on ropes, boom lifts, and scaffolding The Skygauge will perform thickness checks 5-20x faster. This reduces downtime,cost of inspection, and increases safety by keeping workers on the ground. Once they capture the inspection market, their technology will branch out into pressure washing/cleaning, painting/coating, maintenance, and construction. The same way robot arms created a workforce in factories their drones will create a workforce in the sky. | $2.5M / Seed / Oct 14, 2020 | ||
