Flipter was established in 2010 by Salvador de la Barrera. The company operated as a real-time statistical question-and-answer and polling tool. Based in Hong Kong, Flipter secured $40,000 in a single Seed funding round on February 15, 2012. This funding was provided by investors including Start-Up Chile and NXTP Labs.
The platform functioned as a microblogging service that enabled users to share ideas and receive immediate feedback on various topics. It allowed users to create questions, or "Flips," with predefined answers, which could include embedded images, videos, and links. The tool offered different polling formats, such as yes/no questions, "Face Off" style comparisons, and multiple-choice options. A key aspect of the service was its real-time vote tracking, which provided statistical breakdowns of data by gender, country, and age, allowing users to identify trends and public perception patterns. Flips could be integrated and shared on other platforms like Facebook, Twitter, and personal blogs or corporate websites. The company was eventually acqui-hired by 1World Online on September 15, 2014.
