Note from PartPic's Website -- "PartPic provides a simple way to find and order parts using images, which is a relief when the name or part number is unknown. Our proprietary technology can be the power that aids your customer service representatives in the sell process."

PartPic was also featured in an extended video interview with The Verge Small Empires (October 2014) that includes an on-site inteview with one of PartPic's first customers. In August 2015 PartPic was invited to pitch its services to President Obama as part of the first White House Demo Day.
