I was in the exact same situation. The moment when you realize that you are giving your information for free, for anyone to manipulate it, sucks. I can't wait for the 2.0 platform, and we can start making some money! Big up for this project!
Is the 2.0 platform the one with Eye-tracking and emotion something something? We'll need that for the surveys, right?
I can imagine that you can use it for many things beyond just surveys as long as it is producing valuable data for the companies.
Thanks for sharing that meduim article and in an easy ways i know more about opiria and pdata. Its all on the point because millions of people now are sharing including i by using some applications in the web but i am not sharing all my sensitive and important info in public that may be the risk of my life and this pdata is a good counterpart on it. You share and you will earn some cash so its a double purpose and much greater instead of posting your data in public free.
We shouldn't forget though that sharing our data also enabled the development of many helpful applications. What if we don't share data anymore?
And one more thing, apps like Facebook is almost making money out of it. Why not make it your money not theirs right?
PDATA, I just have a question. I met DAT before you guys and I think they're great too. Both projects have an absolute transparent team, a great concept. Now What is one thing that sets you above your competitors like DATUM? Monetizing your own data is also one of DAT's strongholds.
Thanks if you can answer this one simple question!
Hey there, this is a great question!
For starters, we already have a working product being used by high profile companies, such as Mercedes, BMW, Audi and GM. The platform we propose is already in use with all of these clients, minus the blockchain element. (Our client portfolio is extensive, and features many high profile companies like the ones mentioned here, giving us even more of an edge on the competition.) In addition, our platform is designed to be fully compliant with the General Data Protection Regulation. In contrast, Datum and DataWallet don't have a customer base nor a working product.
Opiria is the first and only platform that brings together detailed consumer profiling, subjective feedback, opinions from consumers, and data from many important objective channels (e.g. web browsing, eye tracking, emotions, data from wearables and smart devices, smartphone usage, online shopping and more). This approach provides companies with the data and insights they need. Datum and DataWallet, on the other hand, only focus on few objective channels (mostly social media), and neglect subjective opinions and consumer profiling.
Hope this helps.
