Pingpin is an early-stage startup led by Jyri Engeström that appears to be building an iOS application. An SEC filing shows the company has raised $775,000 in seed financing. Backers listed in the filing include BetaWorks (the startup's address matches BetaWorks) and True Ventures. True Ventures' Jon Callaghan is listed as a director, and another director named is Teemu Ikonen, whose background at Airwide Solutions suggests mobile messaging experience. Public details about the product are limited to an App Store sign-up notice and other hints that it is mobile-focused. Engeström is known for selling Jaiku to Google in October 2007 and leaving Google two years later.
