Interviewed with the guys at Plaid a few weeks ago. They're doing awesome stuff, and the founders are some of the easiest guys to talk with. Definitely worth following.

Augur is also really neat - they're a startup based in Atlanta, GA doing machine learning as a service (kinda). They basically grab data about your users from all around the internet, use that with data you supply to them, and then make that a service so you can feed in data, and get results back personalized to each of your users. It's a little hard to explain, but the founders are ridiculously talented. They've literally been funding the startup by going around the country and winning hackathons.

- brackin 14y agoWhat is it with the "io" domain names? Seems overkill now.
- jaredsohn 14y agoI imagine people often use io domains because it is hard to get a good domain name as a .com. I don't think it is being done for reasons that could be considered as "overkill".
- brackin 14y agoWhy not buy the .com too? Plaidio.com isn't taken, if a startup takes off 'io' doesn't work well anymore. I understand the io trend but I don't think that 'money.io' is ever going to be able to afford money.com.
