HotSpot Lunch
Food delivery is expensive and getting food delivered to university campuses is difficult, because of short timing windows and drivers' unfamiliarity with college campuses. HotSpot Lunch is a food delivery service catered to college campuses that costs half as much as major competitors and reliably delivers to central campus locations on students' schedules. We achieve our low prices by aggregating orders to specific delivery times and locations, significantly reducing our labor costs. We also have employees rather than contractors, which allows us to maintain high customer service standards.
WebsiteHousemate
Have you ever lived with anyone that does not pull their weight with chores or work around the house? Has it ever been hard to plan a time to meet with your roommates because of conflicting schedules? Does the house have someone that always turns in their monthly bills late or simply forgets to pay the bill? Do you have a hard time finding housing or finding potential applicants to take over leases? Above all, do you have a bone to pick with any of your mates, but do not want to create tension with anyone? Housemate aims to solve all of those issues by providing an iPhone application to help resolve those issues to allow roommates to live in peace and harmony. The service will be a mobile app that provides features that will generate and spread chores out evenly among housemates, a feature to remind and collect billing payment, an anonymous group chat, and a housing portal that helps find the perfect fit for your next lease.
The Style Drip
The Style Drip is an app that will encourage users to gain control of their closet as well as create an eco-system that connects fashion industry professional stylists with a pool of clients. With the style drip app, users will be able to log images of their clothing and enable them to create a lookbook of planned outfit ideas from their phone. If the user feels they need more help with their style sense, we will help them connect with professional stylists that will help them curate a personal stylist.
Weekly

Gride
Turo, Getaround, Hyrecar, Zipcar, Avail, Lyft, Uber, and others. Although those platforms offer solutions to ride sharing and gradual decline of car ownership, there is still 1 more problem on the market. And that is, affordable riding without the need of returning the car to a required location. Lyft and Uber are not affordable because there is a driver fare, and car renting requires the automobile to be returned to a specific location. So, Gride offers a solution to this by using existing cars on streets operating like scooter rentals.
