As a team we want to make employees, managers and companies happy, by supporting them with knowledge at any time.

 

PoliticAI

At PoliticAI we want to make politics more transparent. We do this by building a search engine that makes it easy to find which politician said what about a certain subject. We combine multiple data sources to give insight in these opinions.

 

Streamium

We want to bring brands and social influencers together on a platform where it is easy for brands to select thousands of social influencers they think fit their brand. These social influencers can choose, at any time, to promote the brand either verbally or visually and are paid automatically and immediately. The rewards are based on duration and prominence of the promotion. Brands only have to sign up once for our platform: no further contracting is required. We are also responsible for making sure promotion are detected correctly.

What makes it all work? A deep learning algorithm that can learn to recognize any product in a few hours, based on only a few images of the product itself. The algorithm is performant enough to then detect promotions as they are happening on live streams. It can also detect promotions in videos and pictures (taken from Instagram for example). When a promotion is detected, the system checks whether the brand is affiliated with the influencer and fetches the current reward the brand has set out, combines it with duration and prominence and processes their payment.

The algorithm can be exploited in numerous ways and this is currently one of them, but new possibilities are emerging as we are writing this!

 

Round ‘n Pay

Round ‘n Pay is an initiative that offers a service for web-shops so that consumers can round up their cart totals and donate to charity. Our mission is to create new and innovative ways of fundraising in the digital world. We are convinced that large volumes of micro-donations can create real impact for nature and society. 

BookIT

Fueled by a desire to help small business owners and enable musicians to practice whenever they want to, we’ve started development on BookIT. An integrated booking and authorization solution that will allow certain businesses like music studios to operate autonomously and 24/7 by allowing their customers access to their venues by means of integration with smart locks.
