Fixing everything with PartPic in Atlanta - Small Empires S. 2 Ep. 1

Alexis Ohanian tours PartPic, a tech startup that allows you to take a photo of a broken machine part and find its replacement.
PartPic, founded in Atlanta, GA, offers visual search for replacement parts and is radically altering the industrial distribution market. So whenever the machine that builds your house-cleaning robot breaks, PartPic users can take a photo of the broken part and find out what it is and where to get it. For Small Empires, Alexis joins PartPic during their seed round of funding, as they seek venture capital investors to help them grow. He also meets one of their first potential customers, National Builder Supply.
