Geme.io vs Artpic

We are the first tech platform personalizing climate change and collectively cleaning our air. Rising levels of air-polluting gases are contributing to the greenhouse effect. Temperatures are rising and this affects global weather patterns. With Geme.io you can combat this, starting somewhere familiar and easy - your street. Geme.io is the only urban tech app displaying real-time, air pollution data on a shared, virtual map. The data is highly specific, communicating pollution levels at a street level and available on your mobile as well as library TV monitors and public places that use our web app. Data is captured with our groundbreaking, on-body and on-collar wearable sensors and then uploaded to the Geme.io virtual and shared map. App users can pin their own points of interest and receive air pollution level alerts (work, home, kindergarten, etc.) or in their general vicinity. Besides visualizing real-time air pollution, we are working with scientists to show predicted air pollution information 48 hours ahead of time surrounding the user’s points of interests on our virtual map. Geme.io uses your location to monitor air pollution, but the continued use of the GPS running in the background might decrease battery life. If you have problems with the app, please contact us at hello@geme.io

Our mission is to make art more democratic without compromising quality. We want to offer tools to every artist to unleash their potential and reach out to their audience efficiently. Public appreciation, not a gallerist’s personal choice, should determine success. However, for the public, relevance and quality are what matter most. In short, we want every artist to find their audience, and at the same time, everyone looking for paintings, drawings, illustrations, or other types of art can find exactly what they are looking for and like most. We know that it's not easy to combine these requirements, but this goal fascinates us. We want to create a platform and a community, an art-centred social network with a marketplace, where you, as an artist, are seen by the people who love precisely the type of work you are doing. Irrespective of your artistic background (like formal education or success elsewhere) if people like your work you can become popular. This is what should matter. We understand that as an artist, one can learn and evolve over time. Our aim is to support you in this process and help you to share your amazing art with the world. Becoming a famous artist requires a great deal of work. We can’t change that, but we can help to make this process more efficient and enjoyable. We are currently a small startup. Please, be aware that some functionality might still not be implemented. We will work hard on adding new exciting features. Do you have feedback for us? Contact us at artpic.org/contact
