Beepl

Beepl (“the smarter way to question the world”) lets users seek answers and opinion from subject specialists, enthusiasts and their social graph.

Beepl also understands the topics that questions relate to and users’ interests and expertise so that questions automatically reach the best people to answer them.

The Q&A site launched publicly on 16th January 2012 after a three month long private alpha period.

In July 2011, Beepl announced that it had raised a ‘six figure’ seed round led by Credo Ventures, the Prague-based VC fund targeting early stage technology companies in Central and Eastern Europe (CEE).

In the previous month, the London-based company announced that it had recruited technology journalist and ex-TechCrunch writer Steve O’Hear as co-founder and CEO. O’Hear left the company in February 2012.
