Ssh Raises $4M Series A, Plans To Add Additional Cities
Ssh, the personal concierge and offline activity recommendation app that debuted back in July of last year, is announcing a $4millionSeries A round of funding today, led by Battery Ventures. The money will help Ssh expand to new cities, taking flight from its home territory of San Francisco with a carefully staged rollout that will likely begin with New York City.What Ssh provides are recommendations not only about venues like the kind you'd be able to find from crowdsourced efforts like Yelp, but about specific activities, events, and services that you'd be likely to actually attend or use. It combines data-analysis efforts and algorithmic recommendations with human-curated selection to pare down the wealth of things to do in any given city to effectively a top 15 percent that should actually be relevant and high quality.Original Link: http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Techcrunch/~3/StF3fvtwv3M/
