In the past, finding the right<br />

therapist was hard work<br />

and going to see them was<br />

even harder.<br />

Thanks to TonPsy, you can choose<br />

THE therapist that suits your needs<br />

perfectly and see him via webcam<br />

from wherever you are.<br />

When a patient connects to our<br />

marketplace he chooses a therapist,<br />

books an available session, pays<br />

directly via Credit Card or Paypal<br />

and has a secure P2P HTML5 video<br />

session with the therapist directly<br />

on his browser. Like AirBnB, UBER<br />

and Blablacar we see ourselves<br />

as disruptors of an old industry<br />

(which hasn’t changed much since<br />

Freud). And most studies show<br />

that webcam therapy is way more<br />

effective than regular therapy.<br />

Our primary goal is to make counseling<br />

available to all and easy to use.<br />

Therapists have always paid for an<br />

office. We want to enable them to<br />

work without that hindrance.<br />

This substantially lowers the average<br />

price for the patient.<br />

We want to offer our service in all<br />

languages, and on all devices<br />

(smartphones, pads...). We have<br />

decided to focus our energies first<br />

on the French-speaking market.<br />

We have just raised 20K€ via<br />

crowdfunding with a 340K€ Valuation.<br />

The gif is a 40 years old<br />

file format coming back<br />

to a modern use on social<br />

networks.<br />

It was elected word of the year 2012<br />

by the Oxford American dictionary.<br />

We are Gif has seen the growing<br />

interest for this animation file due<br />

to its small weight. It is quickly and<br />

easily viewable on any devices<br />

regardless of the age of the<br />

equipment. We understood the<br />

need of a new way to interact inside<br />

events through instant sharing and<br />

short animations.<br />

We take several pictures of people<br />

at an event. Our software generates<br />

the .gif and broadcasts the<br />

animation on TV screens and on<br />

our website. People can consult<br />

the gifs few seconds after on<br />

laptops/smart phones.<br />

We are four business associates:<br />

Daoud Marc photographer, Leray<br />

Martin Webmaster, Tupper Adrian<br />

computer engineer, Philibeaux<br />

Xavier sales manager.<br />

The concept emerged in early 2013.<br />

We focused on one goal: give to all<br />

kind of events the ability to capture<br />

life and movement through short<br />

animations, and broadcasting them<br />

live. By this way, we want to link<br />

people to each other in events.<br />

The IoT revolution is coming<br />

very fast and it will be huge.<br />

Wicross will be the tool to<br />

grasp it.<br />

How ? Wicross is a mobile<br />

application that centralizes the<br />

setup and use of your connected<br />

objects in a single app, create<br />

interactions between them, and<br />

share your connected experience<br />

with your friends!<br />

With Wicross, connected gadgets<br />

become valuable and truly useful<br />

items! And it’s simple, you just have<br />

to create interactions rules between<br />

your objects and your life become<br />

smarter: When you get home,<br />

lights turn on when you open your<br />

connected lock, and your fridge<br />

offers a meal consistent with your<br />

energy expenditure of the day,<br />

measured with your connected<br />

wristband.<br />

Thanks to Wicross, users no longer<br />

focus on the use of their connected<br />

objects but on their goals and their<br />

quality of life. Developers can help<br />

manufacturers to provide users<br />

with value-added services around<br />

their objects. Moreover, Wicross is<br />

a hub of ultra-qualified audience for<br />

brands to sell their products.<br />
