Warrantd
For anyone who hates tracking product/service warranties, guarantees, and instructions Warrantd brings order to the chaos.
Unlike paper filing, Warrantd is free, offers helpful reminders, easy online access, and a way to instantly lay your hands on what you need, saving time, money, and hassle.
Idea Description
The idea is a secure website for people to keep their important product/service warranties, guarantees, receipts, even instructions. Think Flickr without the image sharing.
The idea came from personal experience. I needed my garden sprayer. But when it didn’t work and I couldn’t find the warranty, it was back to Home Depot for another one.
The business model is 4-fold:
* Really targeted advertising.
* Like Flickr or LinkedIn a very full-featured version of the site is free. A premium version would cost money.
* Marketing data is aggregated and sold to manufacturers and retailers.
* A fee to manufacturers and retailers to load and store their warranties, guarantees, etc.
What will you do if you win $10,000 for this idea?
* Conduct (or find) some surveys to discover what companies and consumers want and need from Warrantd.
* Write the business plan.
* Build some kind of prototype.

Q1: Instructions/manuals and the like are available in an digital format, but I'm not sure how to get receipts into a digital format. Any suggestions?
I like your idea; I want to improve your odds of getting funding I will vote for your idea if you will vote for mine. My idea is for a web site that raises money for inventors and entrepreneurs called New Idea website Check out my idea blob submission and visit New Idea Website and see what I can do for you. http://www.ideablob.com/ideas/4060-NEW-IDEA-WEBSITE The need for jobs is one of the biggest problems that a democratic government faces because creating jobs is an unwanted byproduct of business and industry. The reason I say its unwanted is the more jobs a business creates the more its expenses are and the smaller it’s bottom-line. If business and industry have their way they would run their companies with no jobs at all no management or labor. To deal with this dilemma I pr…moreopose a federal venture capital carrot fund that literally pays entrepreneurs to create jobs. The investment bank would be expected invest in seed level startup projects like yours and to lose money at a specified dollar per jobs ratio for example during hard times that figure may be as high as $20,000 per job and good times the figure may be as low as five dollars per job, by controlling this ratio the fed could roughly control unemployment. The bank will be expected to fund novel products and services and stay away from things like restaurants that will simply draw jobs from other restaurants or moving factories from one part of the country to another. If you like this idea vote for it and send the congressional letter from the website. Sincerely Frank Scruggs
