On December 16th 2014 San Francisco based Crowdedrocket launched a new crowdfunding platform geared towards startups. It will operate as a niche crowdfunding service that focuses on wearable, information tech, mobile, and consumer electronics projects; but that is not the only way they are differentiating themselves from the competition.
After Kickstarter’s recent easing up on the rules, Crowdedrocket is proposing a much stricter approval process for their new service. According to an article by Slash Gear:
“Instead of allowing just about any sort of project jump onboard, they have a set of ‘thought leaders and influencers’ work to see whether or not said project is worth the jumpstart in the first place.”
Crowdedrocket will also be helping campaigns that are accepted on their platform every step of the way. They provide assistance with things like video services, social media, messaging, and other areas of a campaign. They also help with reward fulfillment as a measure to avoid fraud. For projects that are successful and looking to continue to grow post-campaign, Crowdedrocket will help connect creators with investors.
