Skillum - Marketplace of NoCode freelancers
No-code has hit an inflection point, with apps like Zapier, Airtable, Adalo, and many others. There has never been a tool ecosystem this robust, aimed for non technical folk
Companies are realizing they can accomplish 80% of what code can do, for 20% of the cost. They are starting to look for nocoders to help them build out no code pipes
There is a supply and demand problem, where more companies want to use no code tools, but lack the resources to find no-coders. Skillum solves this problem.
Storycreator- Simple online video editing for digital creators
Since building is so much easier now, due to point one, and now distribution is of more importance than building. Storycreator helps with this.
There is a gap in the market between iMovie and After Effects, and Storycreator fills in the middle ground seamlessly.
Michael Aubry is a one person team, and he is able to ship code and sell it. Anyone with these two skills is someone you don’t want to bet against.
Envisioning Cities - Track innovation shaping the future of cities.
COVID has thrown major cities into a downward spiral, leading to the rise of new towns and cities. There will need to be software to foster this growth.
More and moer initiatives to start cities are popping up every year. Culdesac and Charter Cities Institute are two examples.
With new cities on the rise, they will want to make sure to avoid the fate of the predecessors, leading to an uptick of software similar to EC, yet they are just early and will get more market share because of it.
