Grepsr at Startup Asia event in Jakarta

We are just back from an awesome start-up event in Jakarta, Indonesia organized by TechInAsia. There were big investors and experts from the Asian tech industry at the event. We shared the stage with 15 other start-ups who pitched their product in front of a big crowd – it was an amazing experience!

The reception of our service was great! People were enthusiastic about what we offered and they could clearly see how our service could help. We have collected feedback, suggestions from various experts in the tech industry on what Grepsr needs to make things better. We have already started on executing those suggestions. The whole focus for us now revolves around not only crawling the web and fetching data, but also being able to process the data to make more sense of it for our users. Making sense out of the data you have or collected is a tricky problem to solve for any organization.

We want to add value to our service by doing all the processing for the user at our end, so that the user does not need to make sense or waste resources processing the data on their end! That’s going to be our goal for the next 6 months. It would be safe to say that, we are slowly moving into the realms of Big Data processing – stay tuned!

Here’s Amit pitching at the event, to an enthusiastic crowd!
