First Showcase: #FreedomToExpress Launch of Expin.me, An Expression Platform

We are a start-up from Bangalore, glad to announce launch of our beta yesterday. . 

The journey from Alpha to Beta was a good 10 months and 11 days. Learnt a lot from you all at different startup forums. We do cherish the pain, agony, learning’s and fun as a start-up with limited resources. One of the key salient point was UX efforts were totally underestimated. There are still lot of stuff to learn across the board. The journey was full of surprises, just search “Expin.me Story” on Google. 

Special thanks to Ravi Gururaj , Rajinish Menon , and Sunil Rao who added immense confidence in us when they picked us for first prize at startup contest at ‪#‎Disruptit‬ organized by IIMB & Nasscom. It was followed Google Picking us for Launchpad and being part of NASSCOM 10K.

After successful EarlyAdopter Program with 3000+ users ,we decided mid of December  that we would launch Beta on Expin.me on 26th Jan.  It all comes to great end or I am lying may be beginning:) after tiring 30 days of long work.
