In late 2016 the Togethera/Upshot team explored an idea we called Penny. The vision was to build an automated personal assistant to manage your household bills - insurance, energy, broadband, TV & more.
I learned a lot about insurance, regulation and the FinTech space in general. We designed and prototyped some interesting ideas, but ultimately decided not to pursue the idea further.
When it became clear Togethera wouldn’t reach the critical mass required to continue, our team decided to utilize
the technology which we had developed for Togethera to build Upshot.
Upshot solved the problem of groups of friends hassling each other the day after a get-together for the photos.
Your group switched live-streaming on at the party and closed the app.
All the photos & videos taken with your normal camera app were then automatically synced with the group in the
background. This was an experience similar to Snapchat but for groups.
As with Togethera, I was responsible for building the Android mobile app. The Apple Editorial Team
featured Upshot under 'Editor's choice' globally at launch.
Togethera, a private social network for families. It was designed to be simple enough for kids, grandparents and your least tech savvy relatives to create a timeline of cherished family memories. Togethera brought thousands of families around the world closer together before shutting down in 2016.
I was responsible for building the Android app (Native Java) as well as helping out with the Web app (AngularJS) and Backend services (Python). Apple and Google featured our apps dozens of times over the years, but the best recognition came from the reviews and messages of thanks from families whose lives Togethera touched.
"Our promise to non tech-savvy users like my grandmother was that all they needed to do was swipe up and down on a single interface to keep up to date with family news - they’d never need to leave the timeline."
