CrowdTorch Mobile Apps - Cvent
CrowdTorch is the leading provider of mobile applications for consumer and social events such as music festivals, sporting events, fairs, community festivals and food & wine events. These interactive apps put all the information event attendees need right at their fingertips. Features include schedules, entertainer bios, maps, games and other key information about the event. CrowdTorch’s apps also encourage attendees to become more engaged by enabling them to share pictures and video from the event via social media outlets.
CrowdTorch has built apps for a number of extremely high profile consumer events including the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival, the Orange Bowl, the National Cherry Blossom Festival and the Chicago Auto Show. Most recently, CrowdTorch developed an app for Insomniac, an organization that produces concerts and large scale electronic music festivals that attract up to 100,000 attendees. Through the main Insomniac app, information for individual festivals can be downloaded by attendees with one touch. This eliminates the need for the Insomniac team to build separate apps for each festival, resulting in a streamlined delivery process for festival organizers, faster availability of information for attendees and a flexible central app for all of Insomniac’s mobile content.
MindMeld, is an intelligence conversation assistant for the iPad. MindMeld is the first app that can analyze and understand your conversations in real-time in order to anticipate information you may need as you talk. MindMeld proactively finds and displays relevant information during your conversations so that you can quickly jog your memory, share important information on the fly and brainstorm more effectively.
Expect Labs created MindMeld as the first demonstration of its underlying technology platform, called the Anticipatory Computing Engine. Designed to fundamentally change the way we have conversations, this platform continuously analyzes multi-party discussions in real-time to extract their underlying meaning. Using advanced language modeling and analysis, this platform can understand the past 10 minutes of your conversation to predict the information you may need in the next 10 seconds. It then proactively finds and displays relevant information from your social graph or across the web so you are never without the facts you may need.
Since launch, the company partnered with Factual, Inc. to expand the application's capability to include information about millions of local businesses, venues, and points of interest. Expect Labs also announced a $2.4 million investment from a list of industry heavyweights and top-tier venture capital firms.
