We built ThinkUp to analyze your Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook activity and provide fun and surprising insights. Over the past few years, we've been lucky to be supported by an incredible community of users, contributors and investors. We're grateful.
The Start |
The earliest versions of ThinkUp began as an open source project created by Gina Trapani seven years ago. With the help of cofounder Anil Dash and an incredible and inclusive community of contributors, we built ThinkUp into a powerful tool. |
Down to Business |
In 2013, we decided to turn ThinkUp into a real business. Our community supported an enormously successful crowdfunding campaign, and we enlisted some of the most respected investors to help us make ThinkUp into a viable company. We added seven incredible team members and they built ThinkUp's best features. |
The Not-fun Part |
Over time, it became increasingly complicated to add new features, since ThinkUp relies on the data provided by services like Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. In addition to other challenges and mistakes that affected ThinkUp's success (we'll be writing about them in the future), this made it impossible to keep going. |
The Future |
We're already seeing ThinkUp's features influencing new apps from companies like Twitter. And we still believe in the core idea behind ThinkUp: We need to pay careful attention to how we spend our time online, and make sure it's worth our while. We're proud to have run our company with respect for our users. |
