The Problem
As the world becomes increasingly interconnected, the need for the owner to maintain accuracy and control of their information across multiple platforms, devices, enterprise systems and social networks is becoming more and more critical. Today, it is impossible for individuals and organizations to ensure that their information is accurately updated and propagated to all entities and individuals. Moreover, in an increasingly competitive global economy, information is critical to doing business and maintaining relationships. Businesses lose enormous amounts of time and wasted productivity trying to manage and accurately update information.
The cost of customer support, healing and correcting inaccurate data, lost business opportunities, and lost personal and professional contacts is enormous. While applications such as Saleforce.com or other business applications provide a repository for data, they don't solve the fundamental problem of its accuracy, necessarily keep it up-to-date, nor control distribution seamlessly to multiple systems and devices in a distributed and networked world.
These applications help manage relationships on a micro/local level, but do not solve the problem on a macro/global level by providing the mechanism to allow businesses and individuals to connect these islands of data and manage complex relationships seamlessly.
The Opportunity
To enable solution and service providers to reap the benefits of being the the center of an information interchange as VISA is to credit cards and the NYSE is to stock.
The Solution
YOUnite® has created a patented platform that enables solution and service providers to create an information interchange that virtually any device, client or service can talk to. Solutions and services can connect to the interchange, make connections to other users and set permissions to information and files they own. Past attempts to create an interchange have forced all parties to store their information on a central server but with YOUnite®, the customer controls where their information is stored.
The YOUnite Interchange® enables solution providers to create solutions that allow their customers to maintain complete accuracy of their information. They decide who can have access to their information as they choose.
Stateless, Independently Managed, Permission model for Low Latency Exchanges (SIMPL2E)
What is the YOUnite Interchange®?
YOUnite® is based on open standards such as XML, REST and J2EE. Developers and service providers can connect their services or enable their clients and devices to connect to the interchange using the YOUnite Interchange® API.
Once YOUnite® enabled, users can connect to each other and set permissions on data and files they want to share and maintain. Using our APIs, the developer has complete control of where their data is stored; the YOUnite Interchange® merely facilities the user's or organization's defined permission to the data.
