Youporter

Youporter combines the power of social media with geolocation data and live stream of content to help media organizations to break news faster and/or achieve better pulverization with low cost, reaching anywhere there is a person with a smartphone and internet connection. Before Youporter, a small tech blog from Brazil could not afford sending someone to cover events like Google I/O, for example. Now the same blog can hire a correspondent at youporter.com, and be able to have much richer content on their website, by hiring a youporter that will send them live streams of video, audio or pictures of the event. And that same youporter can get another request from a german newsroom, giving him a specific question to ask, while the audio is recorded and sent to the newsroom. We do that by providing a mobile app to youporters that links them to virtual newsrooms, giving anyone, wether in the blogsphere or in the mass media, the power to activate youporters on the ground.
