Its a project on Kickstarter which receive a whooping $1.8 million in fundings.
This is the project.

Now, this is the fun part.

Its listed under Funded Today portfolio. If you guys followed all my posts and went through my 1 years and 7 month crowdfunding marketing research compiled post before, you should know that I once claimed that FT portfolio is nothing but a huge scam.
The method was simple. How can such company went viral in the crowdfunding community and with $3,500-4,000 service fees done so well for the past years.
They carefully pick a successful project on Kickstarter, and offers them to participate on Indiegogo InDemand to allow them to receive more pledges even after the project was done on Kickstarter. The result? Hey! another $1.8 million added to their portfolio! Now now, they never claimed to be the reason behind HyperDrive success. But its added on the portfolio and the total funds collected by their company anyway.
THUS, encouraging others to think that "this company (FT) is legit as fuck. we can actually pay them $3,500-4,000 and get results!"
Nah. HyperStarter raised the money due to the publicity it gained from making such product since its interesting, helps to improve Apple products and a hella presentation. Not because how FT spam the market with 3rd rate fb ads. Dont believe me? Check the first image again. 4 comments 3 shares 33 likes. That doesnt bring you 1.8 million. That give you shit. Much like all the promises FT have for you guys.
And before I get bashed as haters, read my previous posts. Just click on my username and read my posts. I am not representing any marketing agencies nor I am trying to promote my services. I have a lot of people in my inbox who can vouch for me. I dont offer any kind of services at all as it will make my findings on other companies as invalid because it looks like I am trying to bash them to gain more clients.
If you need any help and unbiased comments on your project, I am pleased to help. But I'll be very, very sincere about your project. If it sucks, it sucks. If you want to feel good about yourself, and you cant accept any open opinion about your project, dont bother reaching to me.
I do remember a guy who stand by his project, and explained it so well that I started to respect and understand what his project is all about. He's one of the few I hesitate to agree to work with in the first place but at last we shared the same sentiment for his project because how he explained it so well. So I've been there, as one of those who dont understand the reason behind your product existence BUT changed my mind when the project creator itself manage to explain the product so well.
So reach your audience dear project owners. Other than the functionalities of your product, you are the reason behind your product success. Do something about it. Be the mayor of your pledgeville. Because you can be damn sure you need their "vote" in the future.

After reading my commentary it might seem a bit easier to understand why he says, "I hate Funded Today to the core." Many of lowkey's sentiments are due to the fact that he was very upset when I let him know that Funded Today would not be working with his project after we discovered that he was infringing on Cloop's XL patent that was live on Kickstarter at the same time. Kickstarter nearly pulled lowkey's project from their platform too. Cloop XL also had to report lowkey for egregiously posting on the comment section of their project to drive backers away from Cloop XL to pledge to lowkey's Kickstarter campaign which happened to be running at the same time. At one point the dishonest and slanderous claims that lowkey was making on Cloop's page led them to hire an attorney to send a cease and desist and threaten a lawsuit if lowkey continued to infringe on Cloop's patent. It comes as no surprise to me that lowkey would continue in his ways. Old habits die hard is how the saying goes. I stand by my decision to this day to veto working with his project when it was brought before our board of directors and I would do so readily again if presented with the opportunity. His demeanor and attitude are not conducive to the creative and loving environment that crowdfunding has come to represent.
I thought I could post some evidence and some reviews from creators. Since lowkey has never worked with us before he can't really offer an honest review on our services nor do I believe he is honest in anything he does.
Here is a series of testimonials from many happy clients: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCyMlXU ... BWcRFCOpag
Here are some Kicktraqs of projects we have worked on:

Here are some images within the backend of a recent project we are working on ERGO:
https://www.screencast.com/t/xzwIRhNG
Any of the links that end in fnd.to are directly attributable to Funded Today. If you google ERGO you can easily see that they tried to launch on their own and didn't do much at all, https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/70 ... s-best-bac but after consulting and working with Funded Today to relaunch we are on track to raise them nearly a million dollars. While we may not track for the entire million, we push enough traffic to get products to land on the top page of Kickstarter and by doing so they make thousands of dollars that they wouldn't have made otherwise. How does a campaign go from doing $2500 to raising a million dollars....Funded Today!
When you are the best at what you do there will be a lot of people out there who will attempt to slander, demean, and tear down, but the facts and numbers dictate the truth. Until lowkey understands this he will never launch a campaign that is original or raises astronomical sums of money.
Here is where you can apply:

- We've long since blocked him on this forum, so it hides his comments and I'd suggest you do the same. I felt at the start he could contribute alot to the forum, but until recently his remarks have become spiteful and mean which is a shame.
Anyway regarding Ergo, we actually spent time with them before they relaunched and went through everything they should do next with their campaign, so I think we deserve a bit of credit too - with Ergo tweeting recently:"Shout out to @hyperstarter thanks for your awesome guidance on our campaign! Great investment! https://t.co/J5H7T6klEr" https://twitter.com/PERFECTORE/status/8 ... 4805483520
Congrats to Funded Today with their involvement and the screencast is interesting!

Your story doesn't seem to add up because I went to the Kickstarter page and right there at the bottom of the page is Funded Today's logo.
https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/hy ... =discovery
I highly doubt a creator of a 1.8 million dollar Kickstarter campaign would allow an agency to post their badge if they didn't make a very substantial impact. I would advise that you review your "alternative facts" until you provide some links and proof behind the outlandish claims you make.
