Basket

We’re the largest community of shoppers working together to save you time and money. Basket lets you compare online and in-store prices, giving you better choices and putting you in control. Basket empowers you to make the most of your resources. Create your shopping lists in Basket and we’ll make shopping less stressful. Basket shows you what’s in stock locally and where to find the best price for your entire list. Basket helps compare prices online too, so you can see if that internet retailer really has the best price. (Spoiler: they probably don’t.) Your time is valuable. With Basket, you’ll spend more time with your family instead of budgeting and browsing weekly ads. Basket enables you to know how much you’ll pay before getting in the car. Through crowdsourcing, our community of users contributes real-time prices and inventory. We take the guesswork out of shopping. Join Basket to revolutionize grocery shopping and put the focus back on what matters most — you.

FifthEstate Inc.

FifthEstate is an open media collective featuring original content and viewpoints from real people around the world. The site includes localized sections for news, as well as categories for business, sports, technology, science, life, and arts & entertainment. Mission FifthEstate was founded with the mission of democratizing media by providing a common outlet for regular people around the world to connect with their communities. Traditional media outlets have struggled in recent years, and narrowed their coverage, leaving many communities (both geographic and virtual) without traditional media coverage. Meanwhile, big web media companies such as Facebook and Google have increasingly resorted to censorship and hidden bias to protect their interests. This should create an opportunity for independent media, but blogging, the traditional channel for independent journalism, just doesn't work. Over 95% of blogs are abandoned, not counting millions of blogs that have just disappeared. People typically quit blogging because they have difficulty reaching an audience, don’t have time to keep their blog updated, experience technical difficulties, or don’t make any money. How FifthEstate is Different As an open media collective, membership in FifthEstate is free and open to all, and alternative viewpoints are welcomed. FifthEstate does not exercise editorial discretion, other than addressing Terms of Use violations (e.g., we prohibit spam, profanity, obscenity, threats, and copyright violations). We use a transparent revenue model that shares 50% to 80% of attributed revenues with authors. And unlike blogs, FifthEstate uses a common, localized platform that makes it easy for users to find unique and relevant content, and for authors to build an audience. Because FifthEstate handles backend technology and monetization, authors can focus on creating meaningful, provocative, and entertaining content, rather than worrying about ad rates or technology.

Blupe

Blupe is all about bringing you back your community! A huge portion of our lives is spent staring down at a little screen - missing out on the world, missing out on people and experiences, missing out on what’s right in front of our faces. At Blupe, we are dedicated to cultivating the relationship between people and the environment they live in. We bring you closer to together with the people right outside your door, the groups right around the corner - the people that actually matter. Blupe has been completely conceived and created by a small team in San Francisco, but our origins and support stem from "Momo"​, a popular networking app in China. This Beijing based company was founded in 2011 with the goal of creating a location-based app that connected individuals in the hectic and crowded environment of Chinese cities. They have cultivated a user-base of 147.7M registered users as of June 2014, and experienced a successful and exciting IPO in December 2014.
