Social Ideation Startup AHHHA Turns Users Ideas Into Real Products
You know those random ideas for new inventions that occasionally pop into your head? The ones you never do anything with? A startup called AHHHA wants to help you turn them into actual products and about a little more than a year after launching, its announcing the first four "AHHHAs" (i.e., "aha!" moments) that it's commercializing.The AHHHA idea itself (that it could build a community of users willing to submit their ideas for others to refine and commercialize, in exchange for a share of the profits) strikes me as pretty out-there, so the fact that it's led to some real products goes a long way towards expelling my initial skepticism. As for the four initial ideas, they cover a pretty broad gamut, and it sounds like that's intentional. CEO Matt Crowe tells me they "represent the first four of many market verticals that Social Ideation works in: ... 1. Consumer Products 2. Tech/Apps 3. Social Good. 4. Potentially Genius."Original Link: http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Techcrunch/~3/-Bmvyj4PuY8/
