GoodOnes raises to help make sense of your mess of a camera roll
Summary
What is less clear is how GoodOnes has a path to generating revenue.Were really thinking about a subscription layer on top of this product. We saw a lot of willingness to pay from users, especially for the target segment of parents, and grandparents, explains Israel Shalom, co-founder at GoodOnes, in an interview with TechCrunch. Our primary focus at this point is to build a good user base and get all the feedback to improve it.The company raised its round from TLV Partners with participation from Liquid2 Ventures (Joe Montanas fund), as well as Rich Miner (former co-founder of Android), and Peter Welinder (founder of Carousel, sold to Dropbox), as well as many more seasoned operators and funders. With the funding, the company is planning to expand its engineering team.In a world where Google, Apple and the other photo-keeping apps are already making efforts to surface good and interesting photos, is there really space for GoodOnes in the market?The reality is that these apps have been around for a decade, both on the Apple side and on Google side. We would like GoodOnes to be the place where you consume your most personal and most valuable information, which is your personal photos and videos.With the creation of mobile platforms, we ended up delivering powerful computers, digital cameras and streaming devices in everyones pocket we could never have anticipated the volume of new content that would be created, Rich Miner, who co-founded Android, and is an angel investor in GoodOnes round, said in a statement.
