November Finalists Announced!

Posted by admin On December - 26 - 2010

As part of our ongoing award series, we are happy to announce the three monthly Best-Of Discovering Startups Finalists for the month of November. The winner of the November contest was hiDentify, and is featured here.

These companies however have received exceptionally significant responses – garnering thousands of votes from our readers combined. Those achievements are by no means insignificant and deserve to be showcased here accordingly.

SkedX is a new, efficient employee scheduling tool for retailers and food service organizations. It helps solve the immense hassle of managing the ever-changing work schedules of dozens of employees. Given that they also received over 1,400 votes – putting them at the fourth highest overall (beating out a number of our past monthly winners), we’d say that our readers agree that this is both a large problem and a great service to solve it.  Read more here.

FetchABid helps users find service providers for a service by reaching out and collecting bids for various projects and delivering them. Instead of the usual method of having to research, call,  and usually hunt down, professionals for a given service, FetchaBid’s service immediately provides value. Also, in this hotly contested November competition, FetchABid garnered over 1,300 votes to put it at the fifth most popular startup of all time (below SkedX and hiDentify which were also from this month).

Merge.fm is a song-versioning app for artists. The app is a tool which helps artists create and edit new music. In addition, artists can allow their fans to see their music, and provide input as their creating new pieces. So, the artist gets additional input from their biggest supporters, and fans can be on the cutting edge as new music is being developed.  Read more here.

We are proud to announce these November finalists and are excited to present them with these Discovering Startups awards!



November Best-Of Winner: hiDentify

Posted by admin On December - 26 - 2010

Discovering Startups would like to congratulate hiDentify on winning the Best-Of Discovering Startups November Contest!

hiDentify received over 1,500 votes for the month! With such a performance, hiDentify easily took the top spot for the month of November.

For those who didn’t get a chance to read this blog post, hiDentify is a new way to search for consumer products on the internet. They use a combination of a semantic method and information from one’s social graph, to determine the best products that you are searching for.  Given how predominate a behavior internet research is in the common consumer’s purchase decision, hiDentify is a great concept. Especially pertinent to the current holiday season, we are proud to showcase hiDentify as our as our Discovering Startups Best-of November Winner.

Congratulations to hiDentify and good luck!
