Nebulous
Decentralized Cloud Storage | Nebulous
The way data storage usually works is that the host, no matter how trusted, naturally has a great deal of control over the data they host. Nebulous wants to change that with a new premise: “The data is encrypted locally, keeping it safe and private even as it is held by potentially untrusted parties.” Not only that, but the storage costs are lower since the data is encrypted across a peer-to-peer network.

Talla
Intelligent ITSM Platform | Talla
Chatbots were all over last year, but now, startups are starting to find more interesting uses for the technology after the basic and most obvious had already been taken (weather forecast, quizzes, games, and so on). Talla uses chatbots to create a support platform for employees, helping them manage workflows, answering frequently asked questions automatically, integrating with other apps, and generally keeping a central hub for contractor and employee to keep in touch via chat, instead of confusing email streams.
