In our busy world, timing is everything.

“Mum has been on her own for 3 months since dad died after 62

years together. […]

She doesn't like to ring up every night as she knows we have been

busy working all day.”  

Timing is about avoiding disappointment

& friction.

“I am deploying to Afghanistan and would love to [share my presence] with my husband back home in

the States.“  

Timing is knowing that someone is ok regardless

of connectivity.

“We’ve spent our whole lives missing calls &

as [my parents] get older it becomes more important

to keep in touch”  

Timing is about caring.

“My girlfriend currently lives in Brazil & I live in Arizona”  

Timing isn’t about timezones.

We are making sharing your presence & availability

7 things I would have done differently.

1. Patent before you kickstart

2. Kickstart after you’ve got investment

3. Minimum viable budget is £50K

4. Prototypes are better than images

5. People want to touch products before they buy

6. People invest in what they

understand

7. Telcos are the most interested parties
