Startup Name	Ostetso
What problem are you solving?	Any app developer who wants to have their OWN community of users, rather than sending people over to Instagram, Facebook or Twitter, would be well-served by integrating Ostetso. Engage your own users while also raising the visibility of your app to the users of other apps. It\’s a community-builder AND a cross-platform discovery tool.
What is your solution?	Ostetso is a powerful SDK and back-end platform that allows developers to add a photo-sharing social network to their iOS app with just a few lines of code.Our platform instantly provides a beautiful photo gallery within the host app where all the app\’s users can interact, share, and engage. We deal with all everything from user registration to image hosting to database administration. We provide tools to increase the virality of any images posted from your app to Facebook or Twitter, to curate your community, and to manage push notifications to your entire userbase. At the same time you have the option to join your user gallery with all of our other partner apps, giving access to an extremely organic cross-promotion network.
Target Market	Businesses
How will you make money?	Free for any apps that upload less than one million photos per month. Additional pricing based on bandwidth and storage used.
