Welcome back to Found, where we get the stories behind the startups.
This week, Becca and Dom are joined by Rebecca Rosenberg, the founder and CEO of ReBokeh, a startup that created an app that applies filters to help people with low vision see better.
Rebecca shared her own experience with having low vision and how it inspired the creation of the ReBokeh app. She also discussed the challenges of building a startup as an undergraduate student, especially when the pandemic forced everything to go remote in 2020.
One of the interesting aspects of the discussion was the multiple revenue streams that the app is expected to have. Rebecca explored different possibilities and strategies for monetizing the product.
However, the journey of pitching the product to venture capitalists (VCs) proved to be a challenge. Some VCs did not believe in the existence of the disability Rebecca has, which posed unique hurdles for the startup. Rebecca talked about her experiences and how she overcame these obstacles.
