Yeah, we think the models that Kickstarter/Indiegogo have for projects and pre-sale retail is pretty amazing and we actually see campaigns that go up on our site that are more suited for a model like Kickstarter. With Crowdtilt, we've essentially taken our favorite elements of crowdfunding models like those and provided it for groups of friends/existing networks instead (so think of it for funding a wedding gift between bridesmaids or renting out a bar for sxsw, instead of a documentary or creative project).


That's a pretty cool idea. I could see integrating it with facebook events and invites being a logical next step.


Thanks, and yes those are steps we're actually working on right now :)

Give the site a try sometime and let us know any feedback you have that could improve the experience: team @ crowdtilt.com
