Beaverton business creates advice app
A group of six entrepreneurs recently launched a new app called Mindcurrent from their basement in Beaverton.
The app starts by asking users questions about they are feeling and then lets them know if they are depressed, happy, or stressed, and provides advice by means of videos to help improve their moods, if needed. The app can also be customized, so the advice can be tailored as to whether the user is a teenager, adult, or parent.
Such companies often get their message across regarding software’s use and purpose with an appropriate logo design and other graphic design features.
Sourabh Kothari, co-founder of Mindcurrent, got the idea for the app from his daughter. She just started kindergarten, was often bored, and teachers were often unable to gauge her moods and re-engage her in class. He decided he could broaden the app to determine how people feel in general.
Kohari moved to Oregon to develop the app as doing so in the state was less expensive than in Silicon Valley. He found that people in Portland wanted to learn more about themselves and were willing to use new technologies. He added that if the app is installed on a smart watch it can gather biometric information as opposed to being on a phone which requires the user to tap in the data.
