About Marmalade AI, Inc.
Hi there! We're the proud operators of this site. Original development work by Justin Blake and Jim Tyhurst. Updated in 2023 by Craig Fisk.
Why?
Why do this? We started with user research into the common problems people encounter in networking:
- Missed opportunity: You go to an event and learn later there was someone there you should have met.
- Staying in touch: People you know from the past have no idea what you are doing now. They could be helpful, but they don't know.
- Inefficiency: Networking can be powerful. But there's only so much time you can put into it.
We found each other through user research into networking, connected remotely, and developed a prototype in Figma. Our development aimed for easy-to-use, responsive interaction that could work equally well on phones, laptops, and desktops.
