We’re back at it again: Welcome to the second round of the Netted Beta Program, where we put you in the test-pilot’s seat to try apps and services before they’re launched.
In July, we gave you access to an AI bot that manages your travel, an app that organizes your photos, and more.
For this round, we’ve picked five more companies in private beta who’ve offered limited spots exclusively for Netted readers. So get in there now to use the coolest new apps before anyone else can, and help develop a new generation of tech.
In the days of yore, music was something to be collected, compiled, handed down to your grandkids. Voltra updates that idea for the 21st century—it’s a suite of apps for storing music files and listening to them across all your devices. Build your library by getting access here. (Limited to 500 users.)
Cloud storage is the best—except when you can’t remember which cloud your stuff is stored in. Get a handle on that with Meta, which lets you instantly search across Google Drive, Dropbox, Evernote, and many more. Start browsing like never before by signing up for access here. (Limited to 500 users.)
Giving to charity sounds good, but it's kind of a lot of effort. But not with Drops: It's a web service that connects with your credit card, rounds up purchases, and donates the difference to a variety of charities across the country. Make your first donation by getting access here. (Limited to 500 users.)
It’s 2016. Sticky notes are not cutting it anymore. You need Bear: Store everything from reminders to essays with its Mac and iOS apps. Turn on focus mode, add images, format text with shortcuts, and more. Get access here and take notes like never before. (Limited to 500 Mac users; 100 for iOS.)
For many of us, the kitchen is a mystery: Butter? Margarine? Will this explode in the microwave? If that sounds like you, meet JULIA, an SMS cooking guide. From recipe ideas to specific questions, text her and she’ll message back with help. Grab an apron and get access here. (Limited to 500 users.)
