SEATTLE, Sept. 18, 2018 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Introducing Inklife, a new online, digital ink based, social experience, launching today on the Kickstarter platform. Inklife allows consumers to use their own photos to create beautiful, high-resolution, digital canvases that can be easily shared for collaboration with friends and family, wherever they are. These collaborative canvases can then be made into photo cards, or high-quality prints, optionally framed, and delivered by Inklife directly to their door, or to the door of loved ones.
Inklife combines deep zoom technology with digital ink technology to create the first consumer centered, "Social Signing" experience and platform. With innumerable applications, this new platform will allow users to contribute their own hand-written expressions to shared, social digital canvases. For example, social signing is perfect for group cards, signed by loved ones around the country, delivered straight to the door of the recipient, or for allowing not only wedding guests to sign your wedding photo matte, or guestbook, but also well-wishers that couldn't make it in person. All of this while still preserving the importance of a hand-written note, with its authentic expression of the individual creating it.
"We don't want to be Facebook or Instagram. You won't use Inklife to broadcast your every moment or share the news. Inklife is for celebrating life's bigger moments, together, with those you love most. The ones where you want to share, and mark, a moment authentically with friends and family, whether they can physically be present or not," said Chris Maconi, Inklife co-founder.
Inklife will be offered as an online, web-based platform, and as a native mobile application. It will also support any modern device, ranging from mobile phones to laptop computers, and social signing does not require a stylus. Users will even have the ability to create their note using pen or pencil on paper, the old-fashioned way, and contribute that expression to an Inklife canvas by simply pointing their device's camera at the paper and taking a picture.
"We seem to be at a moment in time where people are growing tired of the impersonal nature of traditional social media, and we believe that they are looking for something more authentic and personal in marking life's big moments. It's 2018, we can do so much better than 12-point font," said Travis Dorschel, Inklife co-founder.
Bringing over 35 years of combined experience to Inklife, Travis Dorschel and Chris Maconi have started Inklife because they believe in the potential for a more beautiful and meaningful Internet. Chris is a longtime software entrepreneur and leader, and he has held a number of officer level leadership positions in software companies spanning multiple industries. Travis is a longtime software and hardware technologist, and he has held executive and architect level leadership positions in software companies spanning multiple industries.
