January 7, 2014 – Pixeom today announced the launch of their Kickstarter campaign, for the Personal Exchange Network and Pixeom X1 device.

The Pixeom Personal Exchange Network allows users to easily create, access, and share their content from anywhere while connecting with a global community, through the use of a Pixeom X1 device. The X1, a small personal cloud device to be sold at online and big box consumer retail outlets, facilitates file storage and collaboration, building relationships, and e-commerce — by acting together with other X1 devices to power a community-built independent network.

The Personal Exchange Network facilitates three types of content exchanges:

• File Exchange – enables Pixeom users to store and share files with built-in synchronization and commenting for collaboration, as well as versioning for convenient recovery.

• Club Exchange – provides Pixeom users the ability to create interactive discussion boards and build social communities around topics of interest, or allow businesses to foster communication with customers and partners.

• Market Exchange – allows Pixeom users to create interactive virtual stores or list individual items for sale via the network, without having to pay listing fees or forfeit profits due to excessive commissions charged by hosting service providers.

Customers who purchase an X1 device for a one-time cost can easily upload, store, post, and share data from anywhere without using a third-party cloud or hosting service provider, and without being subject to storage limits, usage restrictions, incremental fees, or the potential for security breaches. An X1 can be linked to another owned X1 device for added capacity or redundancy, as well as be deployed at multiple locations to guard against network failures, making it ideal for small business users as well as the individual consumer.

“There are a number of cloud services and off-the-shelf products on the market today but none that offer the combination of privacy, value, control and security like Pixeom,” said Sam Nagar, CEO and Founder of Pixeom. “But Pixeom is more than just a cloud storage device, it is the gateway to a global community where content sharing, e-commerce, collaboration and relationship building anytime are made possible.”

Only X1 device owners can create content to be shared with the Pixeom global community, but anyone can access content and be part of the conversation simply by using a web browser or via a mobile application. The Pixeom box itself can be placed anywhere and utilizes remarkably little power. All data is encrypted with secure customizable keys, preventing unauthorized access.

“We are enabling a truly boundary-less content sharing and e-commerce platform without rules and limits often imposed on its users by cloud service providers,” Nagar continued.

The Kickstarter campaign was launched to further create awareness of the Pixeom network and raise funds for mass manufacture of the Pixeom X1 device. For the immediate future, the X1 will be available exclusively to those who contribute $99 through Pixeom’s Kickstarter page before general availability in Q2. The company expects to announce distribution agreements with consumer retailers in the months to come.
