CrowdPilot

CrowdPilot is an innovative iOS app that lets users crowdsource their conversations. Developed by Lauren McCarthy, this app allows real-time feedback on social interactions by streaming conversations to the web. Anonymous crowds or a team of Facebook friends can tune in, follow along, and assist. Users can also become crowdpilots themselves, watching and directing others.

The app raises interesting questions about how real-time feedback can improve social interactions. It explores whether unbiased third-party monitors can better interpret situations and make decisions. CrowdPilot aims to help users become more aware in their relationships, break normal patterns, and open up to unexpected possibilities.

CrowdPilot uses platforms like MTurk, Facebook, or open sites online to allow users to seek help in any situation. The app was launched by Lauren McCarthy at an event, marking a year since the project was conceived.
