Not very smart, but a little more persistent than average.

I see your point. Will address this asap.

And if we encrypted all your stored data reset, you'd be interested? Its something we want to do later this year.

That's important advice- I'll take it to heart. It's really hard to change the dev schedule (with 3 guys supporting 6 clients until funding closes), but I totally agree and will elevate the threat level on web landing.

Very kind of you. :)

Hiii!

I just released a fledgling 1.0 of Index- a personal productivity platform that gives you a dashboard for the world of digital content.

You use browser and mobile share extensions to save and #tag anything from anywhere. Then you can use the web, mobile, or desktop clients to search, rearrange, and share the content you've saved. You can also use (and develop!) /commands to access and manipulate external services. The idea is its an evil genius control panel, but for nice people.

More about the build: This is 3 people (and a part time contractor)'s work over 2 months in preparation for launch at Disrupt. Was the most physically and emotionally damaging thing I've done in my life, but also the most rewarding. Truly. If you're curious about tech, from back to front: MongoDB, Redis, AWS Elastic Beanstalk, Node microservices wrapped in Docker, Swift, Java, React/Redux and Electron on the clients. Tons of services providers for management- love paying subscriptions for my problems to be someone else's job.

Worked as an engineer in popular startups my whole adult life while collecting knowledge, but I'm a first time CEO (CTO too I guess..?). Still feels funny to say. We've been bootstrapped off contract income from my previous agency (and my former savings account) and have been approached by enough investors that taking a seed round and putting 110% of our time into Index could be a wise decision.

I will treasure any advice from people who have been here before, or have feedback about the company and product. Thanks for looking.
