}}GripeO is an online complaint portal based in Buffalo, New York which allows consumer users to submit feedback for businesses.[1] Consumer feedback, called "gripes" in the system, can be submitted via the GripeO website,[2] iOS app, or Android app.[3][4] That feedback is then delivered to the business via social media, primarily through Twitter[5]

GripeO was founded in 2012.[6][7] In 2015 GripeO launched ReSolve Social, a suite of SaaS tools to help businesses leverage the feedback that GripeO aggregates.[8]

History

Origins (2012)

The idea for a consumer facing customer service portal was initially created by GripeO co-founder Michael Klanac Jr., after a personal experience with a knife that broke while cutting a pizza.[9][10][11] Co-founders Nicholas Campanile and Mark Taylor joined the company to assist with building a minimum viable product, later three other technical co-founders joined to take the product to completion.[12][13][14]

BETA and Z80 Labs (2013-2014)

During much of 2013 the company ran various beta programs and surveys to assess user feedback on a potential GripeO system, as well as completed research to justify continued development.[15] One of the key findings that drove progress was White House Office of Consumer Affairs statistic that stated "For every customer who bothers to complain, 26 other customers remain silent."[16]

By 2014 a working system was stabilized as the consumer facing platform was launched. During the second half of the year the company began raising a financing round to support the growth of the system. GripeO developed a relationship Z80 Labs Technology Incubator,[17] co-managed by venture capitalists Jordan Levy and Ron Schreiber. In December 2014 GripeO closed a $200,000 Angel investor round, led by Z80 Labs, with additional contributions from private Angel investors[18]

Seed Sumo and ReSolve Social (2014 - present)

GripeO was 1 of 7 out of 1200+ applicants accepted into the 3 month Seed Sumo Technology Accelerator in Bryan, Texas,[19][20] located on site at the Cellucor Inc. headquarters. In addition to another $50,000 in financing, GripeO received guidance from a team of start up mentors. Through the course of the program the team build and launched ReSolve Social, a Social Customer Care and Online Review aggregator platform,[21] powered by the core GripeO system.
