Congratulations to another YC start-up which has made their mark in not only a consumer world but the business world itself it would seem. May we hope that they are successful in carrying out their operations.

Now, who's next? =D

Add: I would also like to add that they do seem to have a good idea. I know that I agree with their logic of how annoying it is to be expected to fill out surveys months, days, or even hours later when I'm at home on my computer and take up my own time. This is the kind of product that would have potential to become as prevalent as credit card processors at most retail chains. While you're waiting for everything to get bagged, or even that damn receipt to print, just fill out this survey on a sleek and simple device.


Congratulations!

I think that there is a huge market here for custom mobile enterprise solutions. I know that the iPod Touch would have also been a good choice for them to deploy on, since they have an enterprise program that allows an ad-hoc distribution of applications.


They clearly thought long & hard about whom they were building this for, and it shows. They picked a good problem: helping companies connect better with their customers. Well done!


Before YC I used to deal with a lot of senior debt lending to restaurant holding companies. They are in dire need of something like this.

Most of them realize that sales are down and will be for a while, but they have no idea why other than "bad economy".


scott gave me a demo a few months ago and i was impressed with the idea of taking what's typically considered "invisible" data and exposing it in a measurable way.


Really well done guys - it's always lovely to see a great product but so much rarer to see it placed into a great market. Congratulations.


Great work all of you Frogmetrics guys. The design is wonderful. So simple.
