FixYa is based on the proposition that consumer products manufacturers are not providing adequate support, directly or through their web sites, but a social network for peer-to-peer help can fill this gap through crowdsourcing.

Since founding the company two years ago, Yaniv and his team have grown the site organically to be the largest community tech support destination getting over 5 million unique visits per month and, with a $4M+ Series A from VC funds Mayfield and Pitango, are nearing profitability.
