POLKU

Polku help people find health and fitness products and services they'll love. Polku – International Start-Up dubbed "Spotify of Fitness" from top European financial publication. What is Polku? For consumers Polku is a personalized fitness concierge service. They match great products / services to you and provide trials of services you'll love. Select a package and receive up to 4 passes per month. Polku works with an updated subscription model where users pay $8.99 or $14.99 a month... . Additionally they've released the first version of Polku , which has tripled user adoption by allowing people to follow where their friends are getting fit, "gift" passes to friends for free, find friends with the same passes, review feedback, plan events, and much more. The new "want it" feature allows users to request activities that their friends have tried. “The idea here is to find mutual fitness interests with your friends by discovering what they're trying and what they like” Co-Founder Niko Karstikko. Polku is also a great way for prospective service providers to showcase their product before opening their new facility. To these prospective service providers they provide a list with a number of customers and their demographics that have clicked “want” on their business. For Partners Polku is the first platform built to drive health and wellness product trials to the right consumers and turn these experiences into new business, recommendations and reviews. This exciting new branding opportunity is being utilized by their partners to attract new pre-qualified customers to their facilities with zero effort and no out of pocket costs. Unlike the daily deal business they provide a continuous stream of pre-qualified leads to their partners. They also have a complete understanding of their members, which enables them to remove all activity pricing from their application. Their partners will never be advertised with 75% off coupons nor will their service ever be devalued like most daily-deal applications. Their users experiencing these new activities know they can afford the service being offered based on their profile submitted at sign-up. The company recently engaged in a €200,000 project by Tekes, the Finish Funding Agency for Technology and Innovation to continue development of their "proprietary matching intelligence". Amazon does it for products, Spotify does it for Music, and it’s their mission to provide this to the health and fitness sector. Polku is live in Helsinki with over 70 Partners and thousands of users. “They are rapidly acquiring new partnerships everyday in Manhattan and the surrounding boroughs in preparation for their New York City Launch” - Co-founder Trevor Ferguson. Future cities will be announced soon. They are cloud, mobile, social, purposeful and fun. What’s not to like? Join In!More
