What is Paperboy?
Paperboy is a mobile application which brings the benefits of digital media to printed media. Using the paperboy application, you snap a picture of a page in a magazine or newspaper. Our image recognition technology identifies the page, and you get the ability to share the page with friends, to explore related contents and remember the page in your personal archive.
Share – You want to recommend an interesting article while you're reading it in your favorite newspaper? Simply snap a picture of the page with Paperboy. The page is recognized and direct links allow sharing it via email, Facebook or Twitter with a single click.
Explore – Explore related information like videos, images or links to selected topics. Paperboy automatically finds URLs on pages of print publications. In some publications, exclusive Paperboy content is available for pages with the Shutter icon.
Remember – Want to keep a print page for future reference? Simply take a snapshot with Paperboy. The digital version of the page is automatically stored in your personal archive along with related information. Choose to archive in your personal collection on my.kooaba.com or in Evernote.
