Pod Point

Crunchbase Website Twitter Facebook Linkedin

At POD Point, we believe that travel shouldn’t damage the earth. We think that if everyone were driving zero emissions vehicles, the impact that travel has on our planet globally and locally would be significantly reduced.

That’s why we’re building a network of electric vehicle chargepoints across the UK and Europe at places drivers park like their homes, workplaces and destinations they visit like gyms or supermarkets. On average an electric vehicle starts charging on our network every 42 seconds..

Clients send data by PUTing it to a ‘room’ on their server, which then replicates the data over all the Matrix servers participating in this ‘room’. This data is signed using a blockchain-style signature to mitigate tampering, and the federated traffic is encrypted with HTTPS and signed with each server’s private key to avoid spoofing.

Replication follows eventual consistency semantics, allowing servers to function even if offline or after data-loss by resynchronizing missing history from other participating servers. End-to-end encryption ensures data at rest is only readable by the room participants.

The result is that data transmitted over Matrix is never stored in any single place, and is instead securely shared on a purely need-to-know basis between relevant parties, with control of access residing solely with the author.

Hiyacar

Crunchbase Website Twitter Facebook Linkedin

Car fiend Graeme worked long hours in the City and knew his car cost him money just to sit on his drive, doing nothing. Not so much an asset, more of a liability.

With the help of e-commerce expert Rob, the pair realised that a car-sharing app (an ‘AirBnB for cars’) might offer a smarter, more environmentally friendly way for people in Britain to hire the 10 million cars rented here every year. The pair began work in August 2014, and it soon became clear that the obstacle to unlocking the value in people’s cars was simple: the keys, and the time it took to hand them over.

The team worked on an app-controlled box which allowed users to unlock cars direct from the app. The QuickStart® box was born.

Rob and Graeme hired their first employee in 2016, and have watched hiyacar evolve into a friendly, living community, and a company of 16 people. hiyacar still puts people first – and unlike others they were born and bred in Britain.

Each hiyacar shared could take the equivalent of 11 vehicles off the road. People are getting to know their neighbours, too.

Hiya Owners add personal touches, such as putting ribbons on a car for a wedding. It’s a new way to drive, and something they are very proud of..

By doing this, shopping becomes much more accessible and convenient for the shopper. “An open and transparent shopping universe is good for customers” Marc Lore – Walmart CEO Shopper behaviour is ever changing, to fully understand it, one must be able to get the complete overview of their shopping actions to better understand them and make suitable recommendations to meet their needs.

The best way to get this overview is to understand their shopping habits online, offline, with small brands and large brands, locally and if possible globally. It has so far been impossible to combine products from small and big brands available online and in-store into one marketplace.

By combining small and big brands, all retail can potentially be catalogued so that everything a shopper needs to buy online and in-store can be found and purchased in one place. This biggest problem with combining small and large retailers’ online and in-store product information is consumer expectation from both are very distinct, to be able to combine both would mean, all these expectations must be exceeded.

“AtHashtags has figured a way to combine all retail into one marketplace using advanced AI.” Consumers seamlessly discover and make payment for products from smallest to largest brands online and in-person using artificial intelligence (AI), augmented and virtual reality (AR/VR), connected online and in-person marketplaces (connected malls, pop up shops, retail stores) supported by an innovative proprietary payment system (Point of sale – POS). “The vision is to bridge the massive gap between online and offline shopping between consumer, small and large brands regarding discovery, purchase especially payments for small brands, spaces and fulfilment to create an open world of seamless shopping.” Using a unique AI algorithm called ASH to solve the problem 80% of shoppers have which is wasting a lot of time searching by combining items from small and big brands (the way they shop in the real world), helping them find these items online, leading them to physical stores near them to buy, click and collect.

For small brands, it solves the problem of consumer confidence and trust with enhanced seamless discovery and deeper engagement online and in-store. It does this by allowing them to appear in multiple connected physical stores and marketplaces to bring them in closer proximity to shoppers and help them scale faster.
