🐤 Nug #2 — Ya feel me? Felt.

Map building products have always been for the developers. If you want to customize anything other than pin color and label text, you had to build your own custom map. Felt is bringing map building to the consumer.

🐤 Bonus Nug

HUNTER @hunterjisaacson

Building a successful consumer app requires 1 dope feature that’s better than your competition. Doesn’t need to change the world, and doesn’t even need to be original. Research viral social apps from 5-10 years ago and reboot them - this time with better flows and growth loops.
