memo
- Considering the company has less than an year history, it is impressive to raise $3 million. As crowdsourcing services particularly for vertical markets like design or translation are increasing, the industry may have won recognition as promising category. In addition, video would be another relevant topic along with smart device's growth on which visual will be more important than PC due to limited screen size for many industries from media to e-commerce. One of challenges would be video creation is more complicated than most of tasks on general crowdsourcing platforms like Crowdworks, which would make the service more difficult to grow fast.
