- Tampa Bay Startup Raises $1.4M Pre-Seed to Build The Best Place to Write *Things* Down
- ✓ "Raises" is a much more positive word than "closes"
- Twos was founded in 2021 by former Google engineer, Parker Klein, and Joe Steilberg. The "Twos Guys" met at a tech startup in Austin, TX where they connected over their struggles with cognitive deficiencies.
- ✓ I'm not sure I think it's worth mentioning first-time entrepreneurs. It's almost a lack of validation immediately. I'd rather it say "by former Google engineer Parker Klein and Joe Steilberg."
- "As an adult diagnosed with ADHD, getting my life together was challenging. My dad suggested I start writing things down to ease my overactive mind. I noticed the benefits immediately. The problem was now my things were spread between notebooks, reminders, a calendar, emailing and texting myself, so I was still forgetting *things*. Parker experienced a similar problem and developed Twos based on that insight," said Steilberg, COO of Twos.
- ✓ Twos is the first platform designed to help people simply remember *things*.
- "People have more *things* going on than ever before." CEO Parker Klein said. "That is why we need a quick and easy place to write *things* down."
- ✓ "Notes apps are too slow and disorganized for remembering *things* because you have to create a new note for every *thing* you want to write down."
- ✓ If you have noticed a common theme in this piece it is the word *things*.
- ✓ *Things* are the proprietary technology that Twos is built on. *Things* are pieces of information in Twos exclusive of where you write them down.
- ✓ This allows your *things* to be notes, reminders, or to-dos while also being movable, reorderable, or shareable in a quick and organized way.
- ✓ "*Things* are more powerful than notes because *things* can be captured quickly and are any *thing* from your friend's birthday to some *thing* you need to do," says CEO Parker Klein
- ✓ People have written over XYZ *things* in Twos
- ✓ or this stat...
- ✓ Twos plans on using its newly acquired funds to grow its user base and reintroduce the public side of the platform dubbed "Twos World," a social marketplace of people's *things,* like family recipes or class notes.
- ✓ "There are no tools that help people organize their *things* like Twos and people should be able to own and be able to monetize off of their valuable *things.*"
- ✓ "Companies like Facebook invade people’s privacy and monetize off of their users. Twos will change that."
- *Things* is the innovative technology behind Twos. Rather than designing around a single vertical like notes, reminders, events, or tasks, Twos is designed for all types of *things* in one quick, easy, and organized place.
- ✓ It accomplishes this with its system of Days, Lists, and, *Things*. Days allow for quick capture of any *thing* from a to-do to a birthday reminder. Lists organize *things* in common for like a grocery list or a favorite quotes list. And *things* are independent of the day or list they sit on making them movable to other days/lists, reorderable, and shareable either one at a time or in groups.
- "Users tell us they find Twos 'simple yet powerful' which we think is wonderful. We want to make writing *things* down as easy as possible because remembering *things* and getting your life organized feels good." said Steilberg
- To date, Twos has acquired over 10,000 organic users, 5,000 of which were active in the last 30 days. All of these users learned about Twos through social media and word of mouth, an indication of its popularity and potential longevity.
- Twos announced this week it has raised a pre-seed investment led by venture capital firm, Tampa Bay Ventures.
- ✓ "There is no tool that helps us organize all of the *things* going on in our lives like Twos and people should be able to own and monetize their valuable *things.*
- Twos plans on using its newly acquired funds to establish partnerships and reintroduce the public side of the platform dubbed "Twos World," a place to share, discover, and even monetize valuable *things*.
- "Companies like Facebook invade your privacy and steal your data. Twos will change that. The first line in our privacy policy is ‘You own your data' Information is an asset, and your assets should make you money, not the companies you use to connect with others"
- "We have a big vision for Twos and it starts by being people's go-to solution to write *things* down. It becomes the biggest network of private and social information, one *thing* at a time." said Klein, CEO of Twos
- ✓ I liked how it started, but it turned into an article on privacy and data ownership rather than *things.* I think we can say we're the future more because we're designing for *things*... any *thing*... every *thing*, rather than one vertical and talk about how that improves people's lives through simplicity, speed, reduce anxiety, remember more, share more, etc. It's good to mention the privacy and ability to monetize, but I don't think that's what we're ultimately trying to convey. My take
