Hey PH friends and thanks @bentosell for hunting us! A little about us: We’re Aussie twin sisters who decided to build Moji Edit during university law studies as a passion project to explore our own creativity. At the time, we had co-founded an Instagram account with 349,000 followers where we posted original content of emoji versioned songs. This was our first experience of how creative emoji could be outside of the chat scene. We noticed that there was no way you could create your own personal emoji that looked just like the actual emoji you see on your keyboard. The market options allowed you to create cartoon versions of yourself but nothing allowed you to make your own emoji. We asked our followers if they would be interested in an app that allowed you to customize your own emoji and they were excited about our idea. With thousands of people joining our beta waitlist, we started developing the product and gaining user feedback over our Instagram @mojiedit. Fast forward, one year of investing 1000’s of hours to create our art library for Moji Edit 2.0, we are one of the TOP DOWNLOADED and most used emoji apps with 600,000-800,000 installs each month growing our user base 30,000 NEW USERS DAILY! Our launch today highlights our opening of our Moji Edit merchandise store, where you can shop and print your own emojis on your favourite products. You will also be able to view the products in AR, which we'll be rolling out in a few days. Thank you for the love and support! Let us know what you think :)

@fredrivett Thanks Fred! We've both learnt so much and the journey has been an amazing experience. With Moji Edit, we wanted to explore and expand our innate potential and follow our creative passions. We hope sharing our story will inspire other entrepreneurs interested in tech, especially other young women to enter the tech space. We need more female tech buddies!
