Clifty Inc Launches Free NFT Generation and Distribution Platform
Woburn, MA, September 02, 2023 –Clifty, an innovative startup based in Andover, MA, announced today the launch of its software-as-a-service platform, that enables users to generate, distribute, and manage digital collectibles as non-fungible tokens (NFTs) on the Polygon blockchain.
The Clifty platform, available completely free to charge, allows members to create unique digital collectibles, also known as NFTs, by simply uploading an image or video. These digital collectibles are generated on Polygon using ERC-721 tokens, making them accessible to anyone with an internet connection. Collectors can receive these rewards or collectibles by scanning a QR code or through an email, allowing for global distribution and an easy onboarding experience for new collectors.
“We built Clifty to make NFTs as accessible as possible to all users,” said Muthu Arumugam, CEO of Clifty Inc. “With our platform, anyone can create, share and engage their NFTs with collectors around the world, all at no cost at launch. We think NFTs have huge potential beyond just collectibles, and our goal is to enable that potential for creators and brands of all shapes & sizes.”
The Clifty platform provides an user-friendly dashboard for members to upload media, customize NFTs, and share them with collectors. Members hold full ownership and control over their NFT, enabling them to choose whether to sell, gift, use for marketing or engage with their audience in creative ways. Notably, Clifty does not take any fees or revenue share from its members. “We are on a mission to elevate the experience of creating real world assets in the digital world. Once these collectables are distributed, they are not connected to the origin – the beauty of using NFT technology,” said Khyati Aggarwal, Director of Product.
Clifty is currently accepting new member signups at https://member.clifty.io/signup. The platform will remain free to use for all members. Clifty was founded in 2021 by Muthu Arumugam and is based in Andover, MA.

New Social Network Pitchel to Connect Startups and Investors
New York, NY, September 02, 2023 –In October, a new social network will be released that will allow startup owners to present their idea to an external audience and investors. According to CBInsights statistics, only 1% of startups become unicorns like Uber, Airbnb, Slack, Stripe. The reasons for such a small percentage can be different: from an unclear strategy to insufficient funding for further development.
Therefore, Pitchel’s main goal is to connect investors with startups and become a source of inspiration for users looking for new ideas and interested in trends in the startup market.
More about Pitchel
The Pitchel social network will operate in the format of a mobile application with a user-friendly interface. The main idea of the social network is to display short and interesting presentations of startups in video format in the feed of users, including startup owners, investors, and inspiration seekers.
This format of short video speeches will help startup owners explain their idea as briefly and accurately as possible, and investors will be able to view ideas in a convenient format without wasting time.
How Pitchel works
The Pitchel mobile app will work in a simple and straightforward way for users.
The first step is to download and install the app from the App Store or Google Play.
The second step is registration, which requires only an email and can be done with a Google or AppleID account.
The third step is filling out a profile and using the application.
When registering a startup, the owner needs to upload a video pitch, as well as fill in basic information about the business: goals, problems it solves, competitive advantages, etc. That is, to provide all the necessary information to the investor at the stage of familiarization with the startup.
No additional profile filling is required when registering investors or users. Only registration and further video viewing is required.
Investors can also customize the video feed by selecting startup countries and business categories. In this case, the investor will be shown only those video presentations that meet the specified criteria.
The fourth step is using the social network. Users can like video presentations they like and communicate with each other. In addition, videos that the user has liked are saved in the history, which allows you to view the presentation again and not lose them in the feed.

This scheme is provided to avoid fatigue of patients and their relatives, to fit in hospital visits amidst their busy work-life schedule as it is tough for many people to take out few hours for consultations as the doctor or hospital timings. Many diseases require an assistant who will assist in long-term treatment. Keeping all this in mind we are starting the service.”
This initiative is a collaborative effort by Dr. Viren Nagarkar, Mr.Dhaval Dinani and Mr.Shamindra Shinde. Dr. Viren is a MBBS and has experience in hospital administration at Manavata, while Dhaval Dinani’s family has been working in the field of pharmacy for more than 50 years and Shamindra Shinde’s Matoshree Home Nursing has been providing healthcare facilities for the past ten years.
