dock.io is a decentralized data exchange protocol that lets people connect their profiles, reputations and experiences across the web with privacy and security.
Data is The World’s Most Valuable Resource User data is the core value of all consumer facing apps. Centralized platforms mine and productize data for their own agendas, leaving control in the hands of a few companies. At dock.io we believe in this value being shared between users and apps to create a more connected and decentralized internet.
The Consequences of Closed Networks A person’s profile and information lives on hundreds of apps which are all closed networks and centralized sources. These apps control data at their will, while users and other companies are left with limited opportunities.
Users Have Limited Opportunities
Inconsistent information Most people have dozens of profiles online, many of which haven’t been updated in years, resulting in inconsistent information floating around the web.
Lost value and opportunities The inability to transfer value in the form of experiences, reputations and reviews, means losing out on opportunities.
No control Apps own and control user information within their platforms. They change rules constantly at their consent and even share user data via partnerships without user’s knowledge. Users have little to no control over what centralized apps do with their data.
Companies Are Stifled From Innovating
Cold start challenges Building a product in this space is extremely difficult due to the "cold start" factor. Every platform relies on the same data, and is required to build their own source from zero.
Centralized platforms dictate the rules Platforms have full control over the information they store, and are increasingly making it harder for third-party apps to access.

Having a ready product was the most beneficial thing for this project. The product is already live and I'm getting a few invitations from users every week. It shows that it is already actively used. That's good!

-Idea is well defined very useful
-good team
-good whitepaper
-good product (I have tried their alpha, which is fair enough)
But there are many competitors on this area.
And this kind of business either you are Number 1 or nothing.
Unfortunately I haven't seen a game changer, growth hacker strategy to reach wide spread adoption. Once I see some improvements I can update my rating

This ICO does a lot of things right: clear information, credibility building, substantial details in the white paper, and a product that knows its place .
I still have some minor questions, especially in platform plays like these: What is the go-to market strategy to get critical mass?
Also, how is this related to remote.com and branded.me?
