None. There are no startups that can simultaneously challenge companies that provide 3 different services to the average consumer. And the only way to compete with the datamining end of their business models is to have access to even more data, which may not even be feasible.
Could a startup challenge one of these companies individually? Yes. All three at once? No.
- omarchowdhury 9y agoThe intention was to stimulate discussions on startups that could challenge all 3, even if individually, in one topic; not necessarily one startup that challenges all 3. I've revised the title to a plurality. But I don't see why there couldn't be a search, social, and shopping startup. Success is not necessarily taking dominant market share.
