Evolvr.io - IMDb for products & companies.

@bontojr Hi Junior👋. We've put in a lot of effort in building the UI, and nice to know that you liked it.😁 The entire team is celebrating the launch by on-boarding new companies as we speak. The idea for the launch was to have some of the well known companies and the companies we (our team) love the most. There's more that meets the eye in Evolvr.io, but we're rolling out some important features in the weeks to come. ☺️

@illyism Hello Ilias, we're in the very early days of the product. But we wanted to get the idea across and build in public. Just like how @rrhoover published earlier. http://thenextweb.com/dd/2014/04... We are super excited to work on the next set of features that are there in our roadmap. 😁

@husseinyahfoufi Hello Hussein, To be honest, no. When I first read @hunterwalk’s post, I was like ‘wow’, that’s something that we are doing right now. Evolvr.io actually started back in April, and then the development began in September (https://twitter.com/EvolvrIO/sta...). But the full-fledged work went in the last few months this year. 😊

@husseinyahfoufi - Hunter actually first posted the IMDB-for-projects concept way before April (just to set the record straight and give credit where due): https://twitter.com/harper/statu....

@robertjordan33 Hi Rob, Thanks for checking Evolvr.io. Here are my thoughts, and I'm going to be breaking down these questions one by one: 1. While I don't quite understand the internal/external data entry thing, we have been seeing a lot of unusual interest from the community to add companies they own and the companies and products they like. We're updating the homepage newsfeed to reflect this activity on the system. 2. We are bringing in a lot of integrations one-by-one as we speak. For example, today, we're rolling out an update that will allow the users/employees to input their colleagues' Twitter profiles and everything will be imported automatically. Likewise, we are also working on bringing in LinkedIn logins, which will allow users to import data into the system automagically. 3. While we have small amount of data (2K companies and products), its growing as we speak. We want to be the place which gives you a live feed of updates about a company/product as it happens. And starting today, the homepage will reflect the same. We are also seeing a lot of interest from startups to get their profiles into Evolvr.io, which literally acts as their Wiki page. Anyone who is researching on a company or product will definitely find the platform useful. Fingers Crossed. The version we've launched now is the initial version to get some traction. And the launch has given us tremendous feedback from the community, giving us the direction in which we should be moving into. 4. Yes. That's a huge challenge that we have. But company owners or PR have been filling in their data so fast that we are trying to scale the DB as fast as we can. We are trying out other venues to 'generate' unique data points that you will not be able to find in other places. We are literally talking to each and everyone who signed up with us, checking with them what they're up to and what awesome thing they are doing. 5. We are a very small team of intensely passionate developers working to make this platform as powerful as possible. We don't have enough resources to hire a marketing person and make things viral. Given a chance, we have a tremendous plan that will 'definitely' work out for Evolvr.io. Focus: Currently, until we reach a point where we have nearly 10,000 companies listed and information filled, our entire team's energy is going to be focussed on products. But with a marketing person, we would have a parallel growth. I'm very optimistic about this.

@patrickbjohnson Not sure if we would call ourselves that. We ultimately want to be the most authoritative platform for products and companies with a very high quality, beautifully crafted information. 😊 Do you like the platform overall? Is there anything that you think should be corrected or improved or added? I'm always here to listen to your inputs.

@ccarella Hi Chris, We totally respect the amazing people behind each and every product that we use. Having worked on products ourself, we know the pain and the energy that goes into each and every product. That's exactly why we have the "People who made this section" for the company pages. But may be, we might need such a section for individual products too. In the upcoming release, we are trying to bring a dedicated section for these amazing creators and celebrate them! Will keep you posted about it first hand. #Respect 🙏Thanks for bringing this up!

@msitver Thank you for the feedback Michael. We think we can do more with Evolvr.io, as I mentioned in the other comment, the roadmap we have hugely concentrated on the data aggregation for both startups and enterprises. We should be able to get there in a month according to the milestones that we've set for ourself.

@ka23a Thank you Kristin! We have a pretty solid roadmap. I'm sure its going to be one amazing journey of our lifetime! :)
