Carets is the fun, entertaining app where you can view, create, and combine video content with videos created by other app users. This is the platform where you can create a video and automatically combine it with other videos providing a unique and immersive experience. Carets is built around the idea of Crowdsourced Video™. Here is an example of what Carets can do. Imagine being at that basketball game where it is coming down to the last second. Visualize several people recording that final breathtaking shot and the crowd goes wild as the underdog sinks that final basket. It was amazing! Now, envision that these videos created by all these users being synched up and displayed in a single interface enabling you, as both a creator and viewer, to watch all the different angles of that great moment all at the same time. That is what Carets is all about. It is simple to create and combine videos. When you create a video all you need to do is add the “^” symbol to the video description. The use of the “^”, or caret symbol, is similar to how you would use a hashtag (#hashtag) or at-user (@user) symbol. Applying this to the example above “^Basketball” in the description would trigger other videos with “^Basketball” to automatically combine into a single display. Viewing the combined videos utilizes our patented display technology. Automatically combine content. The app can also automatically combine videos from different users using only time and location. When you upload a video click on “Allow Caret Creation” and our algorithm will automatically synch your video with other videos based on both time and location. Our patented dynamic display will show these combined videos. Watch video content. The app enables you to view single videos and Caret Videos that have been created by you and your fellow app users. Watch Caret Videos created by multiple users. Search by description including ^Carets, #hashtag, and @user. Follow other app users. You can follow individual users and easily view their individual content and Caret Videos that include their video content. You can also message these users within the app. Share content with other users. When you find a video or Carets Video you want to share you can do so via text, email, social media, etc. Copy and paste the link from the app and share content with friends and family. Carets is the exciting, innovative app that enables you to create, view, and combine content with other videos created within the Carets community. We can’t wait to see what you can create.
