Co-created by one of the leading authorities in computer vision and backed by Y Combinator, Flutter took the blogosphere by storm when it first released its motion-control utility for OS X. Not because it did a lot – it could only play or pause music in select applications – but because it worked well and represented a shift in the way we interact with our devices.

We set aside the security of the paychecks and benefits (like free sodas) that come with employment at a big multi-national corporation to create something we all believe passionately in – Glympse. We saw the emerging technical and social trends and saw a unique opportunity in time to create a new class of location sharing that visually answers the question "where are you?" for people who matter, when it matters.

Upstart Upstart was founded by a team of ex-Googlers with a simple idea - to help you do what you’re meant to do. We noticed that too many talented college grads take jobs they’re not excited about, rather than following their true passion. Whether constrained by debt or just comforted by traditional career options, too many students take the perceived "safe path." Upstart aims to help you with the most important part of pursuing your dreams - taking the first step. It may be as simple as applying for an internship, relocating to another city, or spending a few months in a garage working on your idea. Your Upstart backers will provide you with a modest amount of capital, combined with the support and guidance you’ll need. In return, you share a small portion of your income for 10 years. By matching you with the right backers and by providing just a slice of economic freedom - where repayment is based on your future success - we help you get started on the right path.
