Stanford Grad enter the start-up world with Pulse – ipad application

Start-Ups - Posted: May 31, 2010

Pulse ipad application

Akshay Kothari, a 2nd year graduate student in Electrical Engineering at Stanford University and Ankit Gupta, a 2nd year graduate Student in Computer Science at Stanford University have created an application, called Pulse, a visually attractive RSS-based news aggregator.

The two Stanford grads signed up for the Launch Pad class at the University’s Institute of Design (aka d.school), and decided to jump into the start-up world, they decided that making the digital news app might just do it and it all happened in 5 weeks, not a bad way to get a start-up off the ground right?

On sale for $3.99, the app is aimed to please both hardcore RSS reader users and people who are willing to pay top dollars for single publication apps.

Kothari and Gupta are looking to expand Pulse to other platforms ‘very soon’, starting with the iphone.
