Great idea and execution! Just curious - why the name "uncover"?
Good question. The broader idea originally was to "uncover employee happiness" but we've held off on the measure/metrics part of the business to build up the perks/rewards side.

#85It's cool because it brings together: a) a travel focused vertical search engine that's categorized 1000+ (sometimes interlinked) variables that can be found without typing a single word (just pick from easily labelled menu options) and presented as highly relevant result shortlists vs 100s of pages of results
and
b) an intelligent itinerary generator that helps you arrive at a realistic final itinerary faster by letting you shortlist content from these results and allowing you to iterate faster by presenting what-if scenarios based on how you construct your final itinerary.
Better Search + Intelligent Itinerary Creation = Faster And Easier Trip Plans

#86Why is it cool.. 1. when I wrote it a month ago it was the only importer for Beats Music (need to look to see if it still is)..
2. I wrote it because I was moving the family from Spotify and Grooveshark to BeatsMusic and I knew my daughters wouldn't manually move their 500+ song playlists.. So everything I do for my daughters is cool.. (well.. maybe not in their eyes. haha)

#87scridx.com It's a screenplay search engine. I couldn't find any adequate resources out there so decided to build my own. I've got much loftier goals for it, but all in good time.
Awesome product. I would have loved this in film school or when I was a reader at a production company.
