Sharpcast is a software application that synchronizes files between different devices. Sharpcast currently is a photo sharing application; however, the company mentions on their website that in the future the application will sync many different types of information.

It has been suggested by a number of individuals that Sharpcast will be the next Killer App. The application has received numerous positive reviews from influential technological commentators; such as, Walt Mossberg who writes for the Wall Street Journal, Newsweek, Business 2.0, CNET, USA Today, and more.

Contents

Sharpcast was incorporated in 2004 in the State of California (USA). It was founded by Gibu Thomas (CEO) and Ben Strong (CTO). Both also sit on the board of directors.

Development of the application took about a year and a half (based on the status of the website until the alpha release).

For the initial product launch of the sync application, the company released a tool for synchronizing images between multiple devices.
