@elizabethhunker No tokenization, it's not a blockchain application and data is not being bought/sold.
It's literally just data collection for companies. You - the end user - create data and send it to a company, and they give you access to their product in return.
This is the same way that data collection works right now, except you are the one generating the data instead of the company.
Does that answer your question?
Hi folks, delighted to be making my first ProductHunt post!
I started building Metro about 10 months ago. I wanted to build a personalized AI for learning languages - my final year university project -, but I couldn't access the data I needed.
Metro is simply a data collection platform. It allows you to collect data from any website, through your users. This means that your users generate that data you need via a browser extension, and send it to you in real-time.
It's designed to be mutually beneficial: you can collect new, useful data, while your users get to have control over their data for the first time ever.
It can also be used to create open datasets, where all contributors can access all of the data.
Feel free to ask any questions!
Wow clever idea. Interesting would be to find out to what extent the big US tech giants could be threatened if they no longer have a monopoly on the global data.
@nick_nott It will probably be quite scary for the tech giants. They are essentially data-generation companies and this is diluting their power by distributing it to every internet user.
However, I'm more focused on the kinds of innovative startups we might see being built on an open platform for generating data.
