Suggestica
Suggestica, Inc.
Founded: Late 2005
www.rawsugar.com
The goal of Suggestica is to help people find good information FAST!
Suggestica started off by creating a book recommendation site where people could find valuable recommendations from trusted sources. The business has evolved with the acquisition of Rawsugar, a faceted search engine.
With the power of Rawsugar, Suggestica helps to create private and public discovery engines where people can find good information (in a particular vertical or domain) quickly.
A few examples of Rawsugar powered sites are here:
1. Boomer411: A site where Baby Boomers can find good information organized by experts (“Trustees”) in that domain.
2. Food Answers Online: A site where chefs and food experts organize good information (recipes, nutrition, cooking tips etc.) related to food.
The company is based in Silicon Valley
