## About

Based in California, US and founded in 2011, North Technologies Inc. created a photo-sharing solution and an online platform for users to browse and buy luxury watches. The company was co-founded by Kevin Rose and Marc Hemeon. In 2015, North Technologies Inc. merged with Hodinkee, Inc.

The company works with customers, by offering two products, one for photo-sharing and the other for an online platform to buy watches.  North Technologies Inc. created Tiiny, a small photo and video sharing application. This platform allows users to capture a thumbnail-sized photo or video and share it to a 3×4 grid on the Tiiny home screen, seen only by people who followed you. The company also created WatchVille, which enables users to browse and buy products in the luxury market. This application aggregates the total news from wristwatch websites and offers an atomic clock tool to help set a moon phase watch.


North Technologies Inc. generates revenue by allowing users to download Tiiny and WatchVille in the application store. Each download will equivalent to a certain amount and is paid to the company depending on the payment agreement.

Following its merger in 2015, North Technologies Inc. plans to create a platform for modern and vintage wristwatch enthusiasts using the web and mobile application.
