Pitch for Up2Five

Company / App Name: Up2Five

What does it do?

Up2Five is a new dimension in rating and voting for live events and online media, promoting a new digital experience that allows everyone to rate, vote and act on a moment by moment basis, while it happens.

Why do we need it?

Up until now, one could vote only for a video or event as a whole. Up2Five allows the user to pinpoint specific moments and contribute to a global graph of interest. Up2Five means crowdvoting at its finest expression.

Who is it for?

For people who attend a live event, show or speech. When you watch a debate and you want to vote realtime for/against – someone , in the simplest possible way. For YouTube users who want to vote and share specific parts of videos they like.

What makes it stand out from the crowd?

Its simplicity. The ease by which one can understand how an event was perceived by its audience. The fact that by going over old videos,one can easily move to the moments she had found appealing, and not be obliged to see it all over again.

What’s next?

There are many features that we plan to integrate to make the experience more meaningful. Both as a second screen application and as an addon for the browser, we tend to add more social characteristics, like what your friends are voting,etc
