Cubby Stuffers

Pitch

A subscription-based snack service for students who are not always on top of their grocery shopping game.

Problem

There is no access to food at Turing unless you bring it. This can be a daily struggle that can also cost you a lot of money in the long run. Yes you can save on costs by buying your own snacks at the store and bringing them everyday. If you are that productive of a human, this service may not be for you. Get your cubby stuffed with delicious snacks for the week every week on a subscription-based snack service.

Solution

You will be able to log on to our app, select a package (Bronze, Silver, Gold), and checkout for a module-by-module subscription. Your cubby will be stuffed with snacks every Sunday so you will be stocked up for the week.

Target Audience

Turing students that tend to be on the lazier side (but shhh, don't tell them that).

Integrations

• Which APIs will you use?
  This still needs to be discussed. Maybe some sort of CostCo or other wholesale food provider?
• Which OAuth integration are you planning to use?
  GitHub would probably make a lot of sense because all Turing students have an account.

What's On Tap

Pitch

An all-you-need app for craft beer drinkers/fanatics. Locate where they're being sold, leave/see reviews, personal index of beers had.

Problem

Craft drinkers spend too much time locating beers they want to buy at stores/bars. "I can't remember if I've had this before".

Solution

Implement a rating system so users can see all beers they've rated or reviewed. Implement a verification system so users can help eachother out by verifying that a beer is in fact being sold somewhere (maybe run some kind of refresher once a week?).

Target Audience

Crafties!!!!!

Integrations

• Which APIs will you use?

• Which OAuth integration are you planning to use? Probably Twitter or Facebook so people can share reviews or verifications.

Please Don't Wear That

Pitch

Sometimes you need someone else to tell you if you look like an idiot.

Problem

I'm color blind. I'm not good with general creativity/design. I need someone to tell me if I look like an idiot before I leave the house.

Solution

Photo recognition based on outfit colors or a crowd sourced upvote downvote which isn't has time sensitive but could be hilarious.

Target Audience

Color blind people and the people that like to make fun of those people.

Integrations

• Which APIs will you use?
  Unsure.
• Which OAuth integration are you planning to use?
  Twitter/Facebook?
