Domino's workers go independent with flipfrog start-up

Ever try to remember which concert you're supposed to go to but can't remember which digital calendar that information is located? The co-founders of flipfrog not only feel your pain but think they have an answer to the problem.

The Ann Arbor-based start-up is creating software that allows users to merge all of the different digital calendars for things like concerts into one single location. It will also provide event discovery so users can easily access suggestions of events they might be interested in on their normal calendar.

"We wanted to solve the problem where all of our events were in too many different calendars," Anthony Montalbano, co-founder of flipfrog. "We thought we could aggregate all of these events into one calendar."

Montalbano and Brian Ritter started flipfrog six months ago. The duo met while working on software at Domino's and set out to start flipfrog last year. The pair have the technology available on an invite-only basis and hope to have an open registration by the end of this spring.

"A year from now we would like to be able to say we can make your life organization a lot better," Montalbano says.
