More than 50% of the public have a smartphone, so why not allow them to use that little device to quickly scan (what we call tagging) and BOOM, register the product.  And why not allow those customers to connect their existing Facebook and Twitter accounts so they don’t have to type all that info.  After all, Facebook profile data gets updated more frequently than any other location of personal info. That then progressed into posts via those same social accounts about the products, following the brands, brand pages with instructions, warranty info, sweepstakes, offers, rebates and list goes on and on.

And what's great, is that once an item is tagged, you get all the info you would ever want about that product.  Instant fingertip access to instructions, warranty info, how-to videos, customer service contacts and so much more.  Basically a personalized product catalog for only the products you own. And we believe that for this to be successful, people need one place to go to accomplish this.  Think about it, do you want 20 apps on your phone that essentially do the same thing?  No!  But one app that handles everything from mixers to mowers, now that makes sense.

We are just a group of people from Des Moines, IA that think this is not only a really cool technology, but actually has a lot of value to you the customer.
