Thought this was interesting, Everpix was a photo storage app [web & mobile] that started up in 2011 and shut down late last year after running out of money. All their internal docs and data are up on Github and make for some interesting reading. Consumer surveys, paid traffic data, daily web traffic, app reviews, financials, VC responses...it's all there.
Full backstory: http://www.theverge.com/2013/11/5/5...nd-death-inside-the-worlds-best-photo-startup
Everpix docs on Github: https://github.com/everpix/Everpix-Intelligence
Surprising how little web traffic they actually had, and just how much of their $2.3m funding got blown on salaries, consultants, PR [way over half]. All the while their free vs paid user conversions weren't high enough, and their AWS bills were growing.
Interesting stuff anyway.
PS wasn't really sure where to post this so mods feel free to move as appropriate.
