Unlike server or cloud based services, Sunshine leverages direct sharing technology to connect your devices, removing the hassle of uploading files to an external cloud server and then downloading them to another device before viewing. Our technology is powerful enough to share entire family photo albums, HD quality movies, and zip files full of work notes. Large, multi-gigabyte files that would normally take at least an hour to upload can now be shared in just a couple of taps. So now you can transfer or share these files in seconds without worrying about having enough space on your devices or in your cloud storage. Spend less time in the cloud and more time out in the Sun! STORY Sunshine was created by a Korean engineer, Nicole Kim, to simply share photos and videos with her family. At the time, there was no product that could bridge the gap between Nicole's own mother - who wanted a simple sharing app, and Nicole's own daughter - who was more technologically savvy. So Nicole decided to create the product herself, with the goal that her app be the fastest, safest, and easiest to use - for anyone. A former Samsung engineer, Nicole founded Sunshine after joining 500 Startups for Batch 12 in early 2015. After being mentioned in reputable sources like New York Times, Inc., and TechWatch, Sunshine began gaining traction across multiple platforms. Now spanning 19 employees, with an office in Korea and the USA, Sunshine is aiming to become THE method of file sharing in 2016. WHY NEEDED While the majority of competitors are great companies that offer users a potpourri of choices, Sunshine improves on file sharing in the following ways: speed, security, and the lack of file limits. Sunshine shares, streams, and transfers large files at a rate much faster than its competitors. Because Sunshine uses direct sharing technology, and does not send the actual files to a cloud or server, it is nearly impossible for anyone to access your files when sharing. More importantly, no 3rd-party (including Sunshine) can see the file of your contents; an increasing concern with data breaches and surveillance. Finally, Sunshine allows you to transfer or share almost any file type, size, or count - without limits. In a time where companies are still charging for storage even when space is becoming increasingly available and limitless, the next winner in file sharing will be the product that figures out how to transfer large amounts of files faster, safer, and easier. We believe that Sunshine is that next winner.
