Really great read! From a table lamp and a webcam to now. Really amazing innovation! Can’t wait to see how far this company goes especially seeing how far it has come just after 9 years. Are you able to shed light on any future plans?
I am a co-founder at Mashgin. It's been quite a journey for us. We were a part of YC 2015W batch. We got started in 2014. We didn't apply to YC in time and were not aware that late applications were a thing. Then we met someone who had come to the bay area for a late application interview. Encouraged, we applied to YC just a few days before the start of the batch with no hope. Somehow, we were called for interview and got in.
We then thought it would only take us 6-9 months to make the product. It took us five years and lots of hard work to finally build a product that works.
IF you're into sports then several stadiums like Madison Square Garden, Radio City, NRG, Kauffman, Minute Main Park etc. Lots of airports like LAX, ORD, DFW, CLT, SEA, MCI etc. Many convenience stores in Arizona and the east coast.
