Whats is HASH?

What Does Hash Do?

A Day With Hash

To thoroughly explain the app and to completely understand it’s potential, let us go through a journey of a HASH user and Non-Hash user.

HashGuy v/s OtherGuy

HASH being a Super-flexible feature-rich platform for interaction, powered with use of geo-fencing and HASHTAG, it can single handedly be utilized for various task.

HashGuy goes to a mobile tech summit, he realizes this would be a good place to

find an IOS Developer.

At a Tech Summit OtherGuy goes to a mobile tech summit, he realizes this would be a good place to

find an IOS Developer.

HashGuy creates a local post on HASH “Looking for a #IOSDeveloper for a 3

month project”

OtherGuy tweets on Twitter “Looking for a “Looking for a #IOSDeveloper for a 3

month project”

HashGuy gets couple of replies from people present right there in the summit and meets

them.

OtherGuy gets handful of replies from all over, and tries to co-ordinate with them.

Since local posts on HASH is geo-fenced, it’s the best way to connect with people around you. You know people you are interacting are nearby and you can physically

meet them. On other social platform a user can be from any part of the world

Meanwhile HashGuy also interacts with people sharing similar interests. Easily networking with people around him.

OtherGuy tweets on the predefined hashtag of the techsummit, buts his

interaction is only limited to that Hashtag.

HASH makes networking easy, you can quickly start talking to people sharing similar interest. Hashtags literally creates real time chatrooms. You can choose what topic you

want to contribute.

At a Mall HashGuy later goes to a Mall’s food

court for lunch where he sees a cute girl sitting across.

OtherGuy later goes to a Mall’s food court for lunch where he sees a cute girl

sitting across.

HashGuy checks out people around him on HASH, strikes conversation with that

girl.

There is no way for OtherGuy to approach the girl, so he spends time swiping right.

Unlike many dating apps, Hash provides much clearer picture of local proximity of user. One can choose to be visible only at places of their choice which makes it safe. So next time a user finds a cute girl/boy in a café, its much easier to approach them. This is not

possible even through popular dating apps like Tinder.

HashGuy wants to know if his favorite team’s latest jersey is available in the Adidas showroom

at the mall, so he connects with Adidas showroom on HASH

OtherGuy wants to know if his favorite team’s latest jersey is available in the Adidas showroom at the mall, so he goes searching

for Adidas showroom.

HashGuy is informed on Hash itself about unavailability of the new jersey.

After all the way walking up to the store OtherGuy gets to know that the jersey isn’t

available.

HASH is a great medium for users to connect to local services and vice versa. Since the

local services are now dealing with people who are nearby they know they are not wasting time and addressing right audience. Once local services adopt HASH, it will be

easier for people to locate and interact with them at their comfort.

Leaving from Mall

While leaving HashGuy creates a Post on HASH “#ShareACab anyone travelling

from andheri to Kandivali?”.

OtherGuy does not have any alternate app to find people to share ride with him.

X

HashGuy finds a person to share his cab and split fare.

OtherGuy gets a cab and travels alone.

#ShareARide is one of the many awesome use cases of HASH. There might be people around you travelling in same direction, but there are no platform for you to interact

with them. Using hashtags broadcasting your needs nearby and reaching right audience becomes easier.

HashyGuy and his friend plan to meet up so he searches for offers nearby on HASH, finds a pub offering extended happy hours till 10.

OtherGuy and his friend plan to meet up so he searches for pubs on Zomato. He

has no idea about offers nearby

Going Out at Evening

HASH provides great medium for pubs, restaurant to broadcast offers. These hashtag would reach to only people nearby who would actually be the potential audience.

HashGuy checks out #ChefsSpecial and posts order from HASH under

#OrderForTable7

OtherGuy is waiting for the waiters to take his order.

HashGuy sees an hashtag #SongRequest on HASH run by the pub, and makes song

request about his favorite band Pink Floyd

While OtherGuy cribs about the DJ not playing songs from his favorite bands.

HASH can be used by local services to provide innovative services like Food Ordering, Jukebox, Review/Feedback system etc.

Why is HASH Special?

• It makes communication simple and categorized.

• A safe way of interacting with strangers with similar Interest.

• It’s a truly global app and not restricted to a particular city or an area or a country.

• Geo-fencing opens up incredible number of possible use cases like Sharing Rides, Finding ATMs, Food Ordering etc.

• It’s great platform for users and Local Services to connect.
