While participating in and hosting live courses ourselves, we were just annoyed by the traditional video meeting tools, like Zoom. Those are way too passive, boring and hinder creativity. And managing links/resources is just a hassle. Why can't we bring the social experience of in-person workshops to the web? So we’ve built our own.

I was inspired to start this project because I wanted to help people and because I saw a need in the market that I thought I could fill with a product that would be of value to them.

I observed my friends who are pretty successful in their fields of business, but tend to lose all control when they drink too much. Sometimes that would even tell things they shouldn't tell at a business dinner after a few glasses of wine, later regretting their actions. Some of them tried alcohol tracking approach before, but there was always something missing in the apps they used. So basically Drinkology is of pretty common origin - if you or people you know can't find a suitable instrument for their needs - you just have to build it yourself)

Shashi, one of our founders, experienced high bounce rates and email blocking while sending bulk emails to a large email list. Existing solutions were too expensive or limited in verification. That's why we built a cost-effective, easy-to-use, and secure solution : emailverifier.co . Excited to announce our launch on Product Hunt and can't wait to hear your feedback!

Back in time when I was searching for the job and got selected for it but the problem was he misplaced marksheet that is when I decided that one day I will surely create something that securely keep your marksheet and even can authenticate it.

Working as a web-develper includes a lot of building UI to design specifications. I always thought it was a waste of time, because the designer already built it. That turned into toddle.dev

I came up with my product idea through a combination of market research, personal experience, and a desire to solve a problem. I started my project because I believe it has the potential to make a positive impact on people's lives and I'm excited to see where it can go.
