The Insync timeline is best described by the graph below.
Read about “The Process” to better understand :)
Started coding insync from a one-bedroom condo near UP.
Raised Php 15 million in seed round from a VC in Manila.
Introduced Insync as “Dropbox for Google Docs” at Echelon in Singapore.
We’re famous, not! Our TechCrunch of Initiation moment.
Raised USD 800,000 from angel round (US + SG investors) including Reid Hoffman and Joi Ito.
Our “Trough of Sorrow” came quickly after and was a really long slough...
After 4 (very long) beta cycles (0.6 to 0.9), Insync 1.0 is released!
One of the funnier articles written about us during beta :)
Hello “Releases of Improvement”!
Our “Crash of Ineptitude” came when we did way too much and almost fucked Insync 1.x with our premature Insync 2.0 (App Store for Google Drive).
Moved to our current Xavierville location and got to (more or less) consistent cash flow positive.
We are at the tail end of our “Wiggles of False Hope”.
We're looking for smart, passionate people who will help us build a universal interface for everyone's data!
Could you be in it?
