- Story:
- Humans are forgetful animals. Our brains are meant to be creative, not to remember things
- People have been trying to remember things forever (cave paintings, carving into stone tablets, typewriter, notebooks, socials)
- Today, people rely on notebooks (slow to capture, hard to search, take up space), apple notes or evernote (not helpful for remembering and organizing things), text/email (unorganized, hard to find), social media (not private or organized)
- Twos is a new way to remember things helps people capture, remember, and share things in a way that is quick, easy, and organized

- No other note application is focused on helping the general consumer capture things they want to remember or share
- Would you invest in yourself?
- Yes, we are going to be the go-to app for normal people writing, remembering, and sharing anything. We will help people remember, stay organized, collaborate and share with others, make money through teaching and entertainment, and helping the world connect with each other
- We just need some guidance, design help, marketing help, and engineering help
