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.
