Eberhard Plattfaut The wisdom of the crowd Crowd Guru offers efficient crowd sourcing solutions for business and residential customers. The Berlin-based company works with thousands of experts – the Gurus – who are able to do a broad variety of jobs, from immediate answers to urgent questions to the accurate, timely execution of online projects and beyond. In 2008, the company started as SMS Guru and entered the market with an innovative service: It answers every question sent via text message in just a few minutes. Today the company also offers services like wissensguru, an interactive online knowledge database; and Data Guru, also based on the principle of crowd sourcing. Crowd Guru bundles the knowledge of independent experts, so customers can be sure they’ll get efficient and accurate solutions for their requests. First investment: May 2008
