Startup crowdfunding provides retail investors with the ability to invest in early-stage companies with the hopes of realizing major gains if the companies see massive success.
These three companies have earned the trust of many startup investors and have the most momentum on the StartEngine crowdfunding platform this week:
Knightscope
Knightscope plans to redefine public safety by providing the safest possible surroundings for the United States with its line of American-made Autonomous Security Robots (ASRs).
The Company: Knightscope's Autonomous Security Robots would patrol the country 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, to keep the locations people live, study, work and visit safe.
This way, the company is rethinking public safety when most Americans believe the country most needs it. With over 28,000 investors and more than $100 million funded since launch, including $13+ million in lifetime revenue, Knightscope's ASRs have logged over 1,000,000 hours in the field.
The startup is currently taking the necessary steps to build on its track record of successful crime prevention and enhanced public safety.
Investment Highlights: Knightscope aims to deliver its Autonomous Security Robots (ASRs) to help in preventing crime and improve public safety.
The company's ASRs collaborate with people to give law enforcement officers and security guards unprecedented situational awareness. They are equipped with eye-level 360° cameras, thermal scanning, public address announcements and various other functions.
Each ASR is intended to supplement (not replace) existing security operations. Users will have a streamlined monitoring system at their fingertips when combined with the Knightscope Security Operations Center (KSOC), the company's browser-based user interface.
Investors can learn more about Knightscope and the current offering through the company’s page on StartEngine (1).
Epilog
Epilog intends to introduce an innovative AI-based technology it developed that grants human-quality capabilities to two different activities: self-driving cars and queue management.
The Company: Epilog was established in 2015 with the goal to advance machine vision systems to superhuman proficiency levels. The company has already developed an 8K vision system to automate the mass production of this technology.
Epilog's human-like vision system can provide a 10x cost-performance gain over traditional methods thanks to substantial innovation. In addition, with the advent of fast AI chips and the startup's collaborators' precision robotics manufacturing system, the technology is protected by nine awarded patents and is affordable.
Investment Highlights: Epilog's proposal to self-driving cars makes use of the concept that roads and traffic signs are made especially for humans, and robots need to see at least as well as humans to function properly and safely. The company's AI vision technology can be merged into almost all automobiles on the road today and in the future at an affordable price.
Epilog is already accepting pre-orders and has a few groundbreaking AI vision products that will be released soon. In addition, the company has filed a trademark application and received nine patents and several trademarks in 2020 alone. Epilog requires a $250.60 minimum investment.
Flower Turbines
Flower Turbines aims to introduce its small wind turbines that are stylish, innovative and efficient to make them the cornerstone of a vast global renewable energy enterprise.
The Company: Flower Turbines is a firm that has developed globally, intending to use innovative aerodynamics principles to make small wind turbines considerably more helpful worldwide.
With technological advancements, Flower Turbines has solved the interference, cost-effectiveness and avian safety issues that current wind turbines have faced. The turbines make less turbulence, offer more efficiency and collaborate in ways that vertical axis drag-type turbines cannot.
Flower Turbines have a cluster effect, meaning that one turbine improves the performance of its neighbor by 20 to 50 percent, resulting in a better solution: they are more cost-effective than solar in a windy environment.
Investment Highlights: Flower Turbines have a tremendous advantage when space is restricted, such as close to people, buildings and parking lots. The technology also works well with solar because combining the two means that electricity is available for more extended periods during the day and season, eliminating the need for expensive battery storage.
The company has successfully shown its turbines' cluster effect benefits and has recently begun manufacturing the technology. Flower Turbines requires a minimum investment of $560.
