Pitch: Intervention is a social service for anonymous advice and local business matching.
Intervention allows to send anonymous advice to your facebook friends.
The advice deal with what your friends should do, not what they are (i.e. 'You should go on a diet' vs 'you are fat').
Advice are categorized and customizable, thus allowing to relate advice to specific categories while being flexible enough to cover all possibilities.
Once a threshold of anonymous advice for the same issue are received by a friend, the friend receives an Intervention, which is a set of statistics for received advice on the issue + option to further communicate with the anonymous advisers to get to the bottom of it.
The intervention also allows to match with local businesses that can provide a solution to the problem. (If some of your friend think that 'you should clean your car', here's a list of local car washes, even coupons)
Interventions are private, thus spamming, shaming, bullying are avoided.
Current stage Side project. The POC is already online, the MVP is being developed. I was looking for a non-tech cofounder (or even better, an active investor) that will allow me to quit my work and start a company, but I'm in no rush, rather get to know the right people to work with. Meanwhile, the MVP is cooking.
Intervention has so many options, that the swipe loving millennials find it a bit to hard to work with. Therefore, while I've added a lot of flexibility features to the MVP, I'm putting it all in 'expert mode', and allowing a default Tinder-like functionality.
The horrid UX/UI from the POC is being replaced. I did my homework.
Name: Intervention
Pitch: Social, Anonymous, Advice aggregation and management service.
Intervention (app terminology) = multiple Advice for the same Issue from different, Anonymous, friends. All possible Issues, Advice are categorized, yet customizable.
MVP already exists, but it sucks as far as the UX and UI counts, being revamped right now. Until then, under the radar, but earl adopters are welcome.
Name: Intervention
Pitch: Social, Anonymous Advice aggregation and management service for Android.
Intervention (app terminology) = multiple Advice for the same Issue from different, Anonymous, friends.
Intervention allows to send (facebook) friends advice, picked from a categorized list of Issues. The more Advice a user gets for the same Issue, the more reliable it is. The user can interact with it's own, anonymous, advisers, by accepting/rejecting the 'Intervention' or discussing the issue with them via anonymous (whatsapp like) messaging.
Issues are categorized, which allows a revenue model, while allowing a dynamic range of changes (users can relate an issue to a specific 3rd party or add new issues under existing categories).
Stage: App is live but under the radar. I am updating the UX to be more simplistic and swipe friendly, and adding the dynamic issues part.
There are other apps like Intervention (at least 3), and all are very similar, so I took a different approach. Instead of unoffensive, banal Opinions and Compliments to pick via software controlled gamification, Intervention deals with Advice for what a person should do regarding really important aspects of their lives, and allows a total freedom of picking people and issues to give advice that really matters.
Looking for: Israeli non technical co-founder for the revenue part.

Stage: Finishing last UI tweaks and launching asap!
Looking for: users, and viral spread for feedback and benchmarking (to get more users and viral spread). Oh, and a non technical co-founder that can do the non software stuff, and can work with a technical, northern Israeli programmer, or an investment (once I get to some user threshold), so I can hire that someone.
