Proudly supporting the Heart Foundation's Great Ride
"The Knowhere team provided an amazing service – a GPS unit that tracked the bunch
throughout the country and a purpose built web application that enabled friends,
family, donors, schools and the New Zealand public to track the progress of the
ride in real time. Thank you Knowhere!"
– Janna Alexander, Events Coordinator, The Heart Foundation

Real-time Delivery Tracking
Knowhere's new Public Broadcasting system has been put to use on our Real-time Tracking
example site, noodles2you.
Using our system, noodles2you customers can see exactly where their delivery is
(or isn't), as well as get real-time emails sent to them when their delivery person
arrives in their area. Pretty cool eh?
New Logo
Well, it took a while but the rebranding is finally finished. We chose a pin for
our logo because of the obvious mapping connotations and also its design versatility
& creativity.
Real-time Alerts Released
Our developers are proud to announce that the Knowhere Engine has been updated
with real-time alerts, allowing users to be notified when certain units/people leave
or enter key areas.
As well as throwing open the gates to a huge new range of markets for Knowhere,
this upgrade has powerful ramifications for our existing customers in terms of safety
and real-time tracking.
The first application to deploy real-time alerts is MeConn, a NZ-based social networking site.
Competition Finalist
Knowhere's location-based marketing system was a finalist in the 2008 Cable Car Challenge.
Directors Ben Liebert and James Chang represented the company before some of New
Zealand's leading business and IT entrepreneurs including Rod Drury (of Xero fame), Dion Mortenson (Movac)
and Sam Morgan (Trade Me).
