Hard problem to solve, so it's a great hackathon project. Difficult business model as it requires big data and lots of processing power to go to market. Skype is also adding this capability to their service.

We were hoping Skype would want to buy us haha

Demo too long, and unfortunately not clear in demonstrating what the produce does. Really cool idea what is the problem exactly? - how are you going to make money? Need a cooler name.
