michael@2: michael@2: michael@2: michael@2: michael@2: michael@2: michael@2: michael@2: michael@2: michael@2: michael@2: michael@2: michael@2: michael@2: michael@2: michael@2: michael@2: michael@2: michael@2: michael@2: michael@2: michael@6: Procom michael@2: michael@6: The protection communication platform (Procom) is a collection of new media applications designed to appeal to mobile consumers, and uniquely suiting the growing community of privacy sensitive business and private end users. The supporting technology differentiates the product(s) by solving four problems at once: michael@2: michael@6: michael@2: michael@6: Lack of standardized interfaces michael@2: michael@2: michael@6: Poor cross platform portability michael@2: michael@2: michael@6: Afterthough of data protection michael@2: michael@2: michael@6: Lack of self hosting support michael@2: michael@2: michael@2: michael@6: Reasoning michael@2: michael@2: History is rife with product launches resulting in consumers finding themselves attached to things they didn't know they needed. What often starts as apathy or curiosity in end users quickly turns to joy and desire when finding that their communication needs are met in a particularly useful and intuitive way. Procom will keep the consumer's interest front and foremost when filling the market gap of a of secure, standards compliant, portable, and self hosted communications platform. Its first round of consumer facing applications, Profone and Protext, when released will work, look, and feel like an existing product to improve the user experience. michael@2: michael@6: Revenue michael@2: michael@2: While the unique collection of supporting technology serves to differentiate the product, tried and true income models consisting of premium service (Asterisk/Skype), OEM value added (Android/Opera), dual license (MySQL/Qt), and consultation (Asterisk/ownCloud) provide ongoing revenue while cultivating a large community of users enjoying Procom free of cost. michael@2: michael@6: Business Growth michael@2: michael@4: Product value is estimated to grow linearly in the case of low adoption and exponentially otherwise. Considering that all leading mobile platforms (Android, iOS, Windows Phone, BlackBerry) integrate browsers and email clients but none integrate secure and portable IP voice and text apps, we think there is room to expand the market and a good chance to be the first to market. A successful outcome of our venture could resemble CyanogenMod's recently closed $23 million funding, as CyanogenMod was likewise a decentralized open source project that grew organically. michael@2: michael@6: Partners michael@2: michael@4: Michael Schloh von Bennewitz, the inventor, has a long list of experienced and high ranking contacts in both industry and open source community. Industrial partners interested in the project include Intel and Orange while Procom could interest smaller players like Canonical, Truphone, Silent Circle, or Tizen (Samsung/Intel.) Good relations with the open source community secures quick access to qualified staff and low cost engineering resources. michael@2: michael@6: Why Now michael@2: michael@4: There is a good deal of excitement relating to new communications platforms providing defence against personal and corporate loss. A number of high profile data theft cases have had a impact on the growth of communications providers and associated Procom-like products, however these products have not met the challenging goals that our platform sets to meet (see first paragraph.) As far as timing goes, a sweet spot of production, market gap, and informed demand has been reached. Procom will begin operations one year after development, scheduled to start in April 2014. michael@6: Resources michael@2: michael@2: For more information on product launches or the company, please contact the inventor: michael@2: michael@2: Michael Schloh von Bennewitz michael@2: Computer Scientist and Software Engineer michael@2: Europalab Networks, Munich and S.F.
