Drync secures $900,000 in new funding to grow wine discovery application

Wine app developer Drync has announced it has secured $900,000 in new funding to expand its marketing and help in furthering developing its product. The company likens its Drync app on iOS to “Shazam for Wine,” as wine lovers can use the app to identify bottles of wine and share their activity with others.

The Drync app utilizes the device’s camera for label recognition, not only on the labels of actual bottles, but also on labels in magazines, on billboards and computer screens.
