The hubbub and two-day-long pitch event can make it difficult for young companies to stand out. Siegel said he and his cofounders Jason Smith, Mark Probst, and Antonio Garcia Aprea spent the week before meeting with investors to make sure they had time to walk through closed-door demos to drive the point home and lock down seed funding before they even took the stage. .
"I think the clarity of our pitch and the experience of our team made us stand out," Siegel said. "In closed meetings, demoing a strong product with early traction, and articulating our vision of how codeless programming could work, with the technical and product chops to back it up, drove the pitch home."
