A suburban Fort Worth, TX, startup has raised $1 million in angel funding in order to promote its Apple-based contact management software.
VIPorbit Software is a series of apps that can be downloaded onto the Apple iPhone, iPad, and desktops, as well as laptops and MacBooks to manage contacts, calendars, and tasks across all social media accounts.
“Our goal for VIPorbit is to reinvent the way we manage relationships,” says Mike Muhney, the startup’s founder and CEO. “I use it myself. It is my on-demand, instant-recall photographic memory executive assistant.”
In recent months, the startup unveiled redesigns of its apps and new products such as VIPorbit Contact Manager for Mac, VIPsync Service to ensure all devices are updated, and Backup My Stuff, a free data backup service. “Until we had the trifecta, we couldn’t really appeal to the global community,” Muhney says. “Now, we have a total solution.”
