>> To comes up with something truly
>> original, you have to ignore a common sense.
>> You have to start from scratch.
>> You gotta take that call and say, sorry, I can’t talk right now.
>> Hang up on the past.
>> That’s what we have done it for this app.
[MUSIC]
>> Vooza brings together group messaging, recommendations, and local
>> search in a way that’s real time and customizable.
>> And then also, we steal data from your phone and sell it.
[MUSIC]
>> when it comes to design,
>> everything we do is simple, elegant, functional.
>> I look at a teapot, and I say how can our interface be more like steam?
>> Invisible, yet forceful.
>> Our process?
>> Agile, and we, we make sure our
>> app is filled with authenticity, and passion.
>> And we’re constantly coming up with questions.

>> Like, what if, what if light buttons?

>> Can they be local?
>> What if you could leave user reviews on members of your family?
>> What if your photo filters had an API?

>> And what if that API Had it’s own photo filter.
>> We believe in the power of iteration.
>> We originally started off as Stumble Monkey
>> which was like Airbnb, but for online dating.
>> So when you left town you could rent out your spouse or partner.
>> Great idea, but we found out it was illegal.
>> So then we had to pit it.
[MUSIC]
>> We change their name to that’s with six R’s and that app was like
>> Spotify, meets grinder but for rental cars but
>> run as if it were for a hotel.
>> And, then from there, we pivoted again and formed Flip Spot.
>> That was like Instapaper meets Kickstarter.
>> And a little bit like Quora, but without the questions.

>> And we took your credit card payments and made them animated GIFs.
>> Every startup can tell you learn from failure.

>> And if you look at how much we’ve failed,
>> that’s where you can see how smart We’ve become.
[MUSIC]
>> We believe in radical, impactful transparency.
>> Something that we call radimparency.
>> And that’s why we’re gonna bring cameras into our office and
