Clip text, images to the cloud

Wisdomleaf’s clip2box is an app for Box users that helps users ‘clip’ text images and video on to the cloud. In conversation with founder Anupama Parthasarathy

Origins

Wisdomleaf Technologies started as a self-funded company in database management services, but quickly moved into web design, development and testing services. Since we wanted to grow from a services company to an innovative product company, we started focusing on mobile technology and building mobile applications. We have been developing mobile apps for the last couple of years. We were approached by Box to develop a web clipper app for Box users. Box currently has 14 million users worldwide. About 92 per cent of Fortune 500 companies use Box. We wanted to grab the opportunity of using our experience to develop an app for a huge global customer base. clip2box took three months to develop.

Gameplan

clip2box is the only web-clipper app for Box users. clip2box helps users save clips of text, images and video on to the cloud. The webclips saved into Box can be accessed by users anytime, anywhere. It is a productivity app with the functionality of saving full webpage or part of webpage on the cloud. These can then be organised using folders and be shared with friends. In addition, the Bookmarklet feature can be used to enable easy clipping while using Safari browser. Web clips can be saved in the original HTML source format or as plain text. Customer's interested in purchasing the product can buy the app from their iTunes account with a single click. Online is the best place to market apps. We have used a Facebook page and social media to engage with customer's and have sought expert reviews on blogs.
