Vooster
About this raise: Who Should Be Interested:
Is social media a part of your daily life, but you wish it felt more authentic? Are you looking for a way to connect with people more genuinely than current social media allows for, or are you looking for an anti-cyber bullying platform? If you said yes to either question, then investing in Vooster might be for you. Vooster is a new social media platform that allows for users to interact via video in a more honest and authentic way.
The Company:
Vooster is a new 100% video app and platform in the social media scene. They offer users the ability to share and connect via video in more authentic and honest ways through their revolutionary video network which offers instant “on the fly” videos. This, along with Vooster’s careful user confirmation system, helps create safer environments, authentic video chats, and no editing or altering of videos. Internet trolls can’t hide here behind fake IDs! Vooster currently has a user base of about 10,000 users across both the app and web platform, with roughly 500 daily users, 3,000 weekly users, and 7,000 monthly users. Users so far love the app, stating things like, “Best thing since sliced bread,” and “Taking videos and connecting in this format is more personal than all other apps out there and that’s what I am always looking for.” Vooster is here to boost people’s emotions positively through video -- and it seems like they’re well on their way to a voosting success.
The Bottom Line:
While Vooster does have to compete against other major social medias and networks like Snap, Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter, their approach is so different that they can truly set themselves apart. As social media becomes a daily part of people’s lives, figuring out a way to make it safer and more authentic from cyber bullying is necessary....and Vooster is doing just that.
