Feedo

Gurgaon, India

Feedo was my 2nd startup. Here is a short brief about the product: "Feedo is a great, simple way to understand your customers’ level of loyalty using Net Promoter Score (NPS) on any Android smartphone. Designed for simplicity, Feedo makes it easy for store owners/brand managers to track and action customer feedback. Feedo puts you in the driver seat inexpensively and lets you conduct quick NPS surveys to understand if your clients are likely to recommend your business or service to others." Had to shut it down because of lack of funds to sustain it.
