| Linkfire | We’re a passionate team of music techies on a mission to make music consumption easier for fans, labels and artists. The music industry is transforming constantly, the market is fragmented and split across many different platforms and services. Physical sales are going down. Streaming is gaining momentum. The transformation will continue and theyears to come will be very interesting. We want to contribute to the transformation by bringing music and fans closer. Not inside music services, but outside where fans and artists engage. Our approach is to index digital music across music services and provide smart links that route fans directly to the music regardless of their location or which player or platform they use. It’s complex. We make it simple. | $2.4M | Seed | Sep 16, 2015 |  |
| Colego | Colego functions by allowing users to search for a particular category and to then submit tasks, whether related to gardening, bookkeeping, auto-repair, legal services, or other area, describing in detail the work that the user needs completed. Users are not immediately connected with bidders, however, as Colego takes applications, verifies thetask, and then submits it to companies that meet a certain quality and set of requirements. From there, the users receive 3 free price-quotes from interested contractors and move to negotiate the terms. They are not stuck if they decide that they do not particularly like any of the offers, as they can simply contact Colego and cancel the process. The search aspect is free to users, but Colego tells me that they generate revenue by taking a lead-generation fee from each company that chooses to bid on a particular task. | $3.3M | Series A | Jun 01, 2015 |  |
