Parko developed a mobile application that automatically identifies parking spots that are about to
become available and navigates users to available spots. Parko’s social parking platform brings a
crowd-sourcing solution to the common pain that drivers in every big city go through when they
circle the blocks looking for a parking spot. 
Parko is the unique combination of a social community both actively and passively sharing
information on their soon-to-be-free parking spots using cutting-edge technology. Parko’s
proprietary algorithms make use of information from more than 9 sensors found in a typical
smartphone today to accurately identify parking spots that are about to become available in a
completely passive way, without the users even needing to take their phones out their pockets. 	

	

Parko’s API provides the parking ecosystem the ability to help drivers discover the optimal
navigation route to a parking spot with real-time updates from other drivers. Parko’s technology
analyzes the parking habits of opt-in users.	

	

Parko raised $1 million in a seed round from OurCrowd and SparkLabs GlobalVentures.

Our first product, the Petnet SmartFeeder programs itself around your life and the wellness of your
pet. SmartFeeder assesses the dietary requirements of your pet, creates a custom feeding regimen
to meet those requirements, alerts you when your pet has been fed and even reminds you to
purchase more food when you run low. From your smartphone, tablet or computer, you and all
your pet’s caregivers can monitor and/or adjust feeding schedules, compare your pet’s diet to other
similar pets, order food, and more. 	

	

In 2013, spending in the U.S. hit an estimated $55.53 billion, with most of that amount, or $21.26
billion, going toward food. The U.S. pet care market is worth about $55.5 billion, and the connected
devices market is expected to reach hit $309 billion by 2020 so expect to see many more devices
that help owners remotely care for and pamper their dogs and cats.

PayByGroup is a group payments platform that lets friends split the cost of purchase on bigger
items like vacation rentals, parties, trips, sports tickets and more. Consumers can start large
purchases risk-free because no one is charged until a tipping point is reached, after which everyone
pays their fair share. Merchants no longer suffer from shopping cart abandonment that results
when groups try to purchase together via conventional means and thus on average increase their
sales by 10% using PayByGroup. 

PayByGroup exists primarily as a checkout button on merchant sites, but is also available for
consumer use at PayByGroup.com.	

	

PayByGroup raised from 500Startups, SparkLabs GlobalVentures, and others. The San Francisco-
based startup has partnered with 53 payment gateways in 71 countries, including France, Brazil, Germany,
India, and others.

Founded in 2013, Iodine mines clinical data to help consumers make better decisions about drugs.
We crunch open government datasets (FDA, CMS,VA) to create targeted, actionable tools that
drive better decisions, better adherence, and better outcomes. Iodine combines large healthcare
datasets with a user's individual needs and background to create a personalized resource for better
understanding and decision-making about health. 

Iodine addresses a massive need among Internet users: 23% are searching for drug information, and
half of these are unsatisfied by what they find. We believe that too much information offered to
patients today is generic, anecdotal, and out-of-date. We believe that data science can create better
information that will improve adherence, enhance behavior, and make people more confident about
their health. 	

	

Iodine raised $1.5 million from SV Angel, Maveron, FelicisVentures, BoxGroup, SparkLabs Global,
and Collaborative Fund.
