Snapjoy is an online photo storage service that imports photos from anywhere and organizes them in a meaningful way. After uploading some photos, the app categorizes the photos for its user, using metadata to try to intelligently place the correct photos in each album.

By default, everything uploaded to Snapjoy is private but users can still share photos with specific groups of friends, and if the users grant permission, friends can actually copy users’ photos into their own Snapjoy album. Snapjoy was launched in 2011 and is headquartered in Boulder, C.O.

Grab pieces of enjoyable content from any page, save them online, and share without having to copy/paste using a simple bookmarklet. For bloggers and media sites, Snipd's widget enables readership to Snip images, videos, or text enjoyed most within articles. Snipd content becomes a destination for users, rather than a list of bookmarks because users are able to enjoy what they saved from within pages on the net. With more and more content to sift through these days, Snipd makes it easier to identify hot-zones in articles. Hot-zones are dumbed-down heat maps for content. Readers can forget skimming and focus on what people are Snipping most on any page. Because a snip is an implicit vote on a piece of content, we aggregate and figure out what area of an article is attracting the most attention.

Snowpilot combines a spreadsheet UI with a federated data engine. We get live data from tools like Salesforce, Gong, and Mixpanel, enabling PMs, marketers, and salespeople to run high-impact workflows with data at any scale. Ben and Dom met at a Sequoia & a16z-backed data startup, Census. Together, we built the first real-time, warehouse-native customer data platform. Prior to that, Dom led 20+ ML engineers at Adobe to build their internal ad optimization platform, which allocates $1B in annual spend. Ben built the microservices stack powering the new Microsoft Edge, scaling from 0 to hundreds of millions of DAUs. We started coding Snowpilot in mid-August '24, and we already have a live app that can run sub-second queries on millions of rows, entirely in the user's browser. The data warehouse market is $10B/yr, growing 23% YOY. We will disrupt incumbents and significantly expand this market by enabling non-engineers to use big data on a daily basis.
