Describe the scope of work in detail. Please include a summary of key deliverables.

The idea started as a graduation project. We wanted to build a system facilitating the creation of marketplaces for a specific product. We remarked that many products can only be sold locally. The local marketplace should be vertical in nature to allow users to search easily depending on many attributes of each product. In each case someone had the idea to build a local marketplace then they had to start from scratch! It's a time consuming process. So we drafted an architecture allowing people to create marketplaces easily. 
Our early version was developed on .net then we moved it to php and added lot of features plus the creation of a mobile application supporting the marketplace.
To address these challenges, Bazarmaker implemented a robust architecture allowing users to create vertical marketplaces more efficiently. The team transitioned the platform from .NET to PHP, which enabled faster feature development and easier integration of plugins. The introduction of a mobile application streamlined the user experience, allowing users to access marketplaces on-the-go. 
Bazarmaker also incorporated customizable templates and modular components, which empowered users to tailor their marketplaces to specific product categories and local needs without starting from scratch. This approach reduced the time and effort required to launch new marketplaces while ensuring the platform could scale globally with minimal friction.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

As Bazarmaker expanded globally, it faced several key challenges. The initial problem stemmed from its users’ demand for highly specialized, localized marketplaces. Building a marketplace from scratch for each unique product or region was time-consuming and complex. 
Additionally, ensuring scalability and maintaining the user experience across different markets became increasingly difficult. Another major challenge was adapting the platform to cater to diverse user preferences and legal requirements in various regions.

Describe the scope of work in detail. Please include a summary of key deliverables.

Since about four to five years, virtualization became an interesting and important topic. We have come across many of our friends who were trying to get virtualization courses, either because the subject sounded cool or because their employers are interested in it and know that it's the future.
As we were expert in the subject, we got always consulted regarding what courses to take, advantages of each platform and how much this topic is getting attention. It was clear to us that many enterprises are understanding that virtualization has become a necessity. But there are still many challenges facing enterprises when they want to move to virtualization.
According to an article on the BusinessInsider describing the main challenges facing enterprises willing to move to virtualization, most challenges are that CIOs don't know the value of virtualization, lack of knowledge of running virtualization systems within the enterprise, and inability to assess resources need and new structure of a virtualized environment. It was clear to us that many enterprises wanted to move to virtualization but they lack the knowledge and the ability to move to the cloud.
Our goal is to bridge this gap by allowing IT staff with no prior virtualization knowledge to build a virtual network. We thought that such solution will allow tech people with no background knowledge about virtualization to build quickly and easily clouding solutions.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

Lack of transparency in financial offers and conditions.

Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

I can’t believe how approachable and friendly the team at FasterCapital was! Every question I had was met with prompt and insightful answers.

Are there any areas for improvement or something FasterCapital could have done differently?

The regular updates were helpful, but more frequent insights on investor interest and next steps would have enhanced our ability to strategize and adjust our approach in real-time.

BACKGROUND

I am the CEO & Co-Founder of TvLize

Describe what your company does in a single sentence.

TVlize is a company that specializes in improving and socializing TV. At TVlize, we are changing the TV experience both for viewers and broadcasters. Viewers will be able to participate in shows by commenting at any time, tagging a point of time, ansewring a survey and changing the course of action of a show. TVlize can also allow people to use their desktops, tablets or smartphones to watch TV. Viewers will move from lean-backward to lean-forward experience once they feel they can read comments from friends and peers and comment back. Viewers will have their own social networks within TVlize to share comments and tags on a show either privately, in a group or publicly.
Broadcasters can use TVlize solutions to get accurate statistics, know when viewers join a program and when they leave and how much they are interacting with the program. TVlize can also allow broadcaster to embed HTML content with the show being broadcasted so that viewers can get more information from the show or links pointing to deals or discounts.
TVlize also provide other mining and profiling products for broadcasters enabling them to divide viewers into groups and recommend shows to them or do targeted advertising.

We came with the idea when we were watching a soccer match with friends. It is clear that all people are shouting at the same time when there's a missed chance or a goal that has been scored. The idea was to label moments on the video through crowd-sourcing. We also wanted to allow users to comment on a video in a specific time. Comments can then be replayed while users are rewatching shows and movies thus enriching the video content itself.
We worked on the idea for several iterations and we discussed it with friends to make sure it's attractive. It was clear that everybody was interested in the idea and its impact.

Lean-backward To Lean-Forward
One of the things we disliked most about TV experience is the lean-back experience where people are passive viewers who just watch with almost no interaction other than switching to another channel! We thought that this should change and we should enable people to comment and enrich the TV experience.
We can't change how TV is being watched but we can open a channel through PC & Mobile for people to comment and interact.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

Difficulty in direct communication with the technical support team.

Describe their project management. Did they deliver items on time? How did they respond to your needs?

We cannot thank FasterCapital enough for their outstanding management of our project They not only delivered everything on time but also ensured they were responsive to our needs, making the entire process smooth and efficient.

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

One of the most impressive aspects of working with FasterCapital was their clear communication. Complex concepts were broken down into easy-to-understand language.

Are there any areas for improvement or something FasterCapital could have done differently?

FasterCapital’s support was excellent, but providing clearer, more defined timelines for each stage of the fundraising process might have allowed us to plan more effectively and set better expectations.

BookThatBook offers a solution where sellers and buyers of books can discover each other and exchange books. The solution asks the customer to define the type of book (school, university or other) and thus enable easier search and matching. The solution is available as a mobile app and accessible also through HTML5 from feature phones or from PC/laptops.

Books for univeristy are expensive and students at campus find it hard to search for used books that might help them save some money. So the students need a solution that allow them to discover what secondhand books are available so that they can exchange or buy/sell them.

Parents also confront the same problem when their children are moving to the next class. They don't know what to do with old books, nor do they have an idea when they can get used ones.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

What were the measurable outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

The market is mostly regulated by amazon or smaller companies that offer books. We need a simple solution that can connect students or people based on proximity and on one-to-one basis.
