If you’ve been following the posts and comments, it’s clear that there is demand for an alternative to Techcrunch. One that remains focused on startups and doesn’t review companies based on personal relationships with company stakeholders.
What makes this new site different from Techcrunch?
- Our goal will be to give exciting new startups a fair chance.
- Our focus will be constructive criticism and providing a forum for user feedback.
- Startups requesting a review will be placed into a pool, and reviews will be solicited from the community.
- Any member of the community can register and submit a review for approval.
- We will pick the websites to review using a combination of random selection and community voting. This allows the best startups to get reviewed quickly, while making sure every startup has a chance to get reviewed.
- Depending on interest, we may introduce a separate category for additional commentary from permanent contributors
The new site will be up shortly. We will be in contact with those of you who wrote emails asking to contribute. Everyone else who would like to post can contact us using the anonymous tip line or check back regularly for updates.
