Hi, I am Hai and this my co-founder Changhai, both Ph.D in software engineering, also awards winning app developers with 5 apps and a bit over 1 million users. Today I present you Skyline, a revolutionary way to create affordable, customized, mobile enterprise software for communication, management and BI. We have been working on the technology for over 5 years and are already turning revenue and getting angel term sheets.
The problem we are tackling is how to re-invent enterprise software for small and medium enterprises, which till this day are still very expensive, in other words highly lucrative, yet awfully difficult and unpleasant to use. I believe most of you guys would share my views.
The market is huge yet hungry
We focus on SME, and China is a natural plus
Our solution is to provide a self-service platform for SMEs to build and customize their own mobile software for communication, management and BI. Skyline is looking to
change the way enterprise software is developed with our proprietary workflow engine and object-oriented business data model, which together allow customization process be done in days with 90% lower cost and consumer mobile app user experience, without need for IT pros or consultants.
This is how Skyline works for an SME, first the management and CEO gives a list of most concerned business object, such product, project, client, etc.
Then they use scripts and GUI tools to define the workflows which connects their employees who interacts with these business objects.
And, boom, the system is ready for use, with a slack like mobile app, real-time mobile workflows, live BI reports and unlimited expansion possibilities as they can refine and extend their workflows and business objects as business grows.
Put the demo first, then use this slide to explain the product in a logical aspect. 10s
Emphasize on the time-efficiency of the approach
Focus on the features instead of process
Similar to Slack and Evernote Business, plus the on-premise solution partnering with licensed vendors.
Compared with incumbents in this market, Skyline is 90% cheaper, customization and expandability, itโs natively mobile, ready for big data and BI, easy to use and no security worries.
As requested by YC in their famous requests for startups in enterprise software, Skyline can
Make the expensive cheap
Digitize every business, leveraging data and BI
Ready SMEs for the next billion workers
Run through this one, emphasize our advantage, emphasize logo
