I doubt it very much. It is sometimes difficult to explain something you spend all your time thinking about to a third party- because you rarely have to ask yourself "what is this in ten words or less", you're not well practised at it.

I don't believe for a second that for all the attention Parse has received, the idea of an elevator pitch has never come up.

Word of mouth on Parse is tremendous. I'm just waiting for their merger announcement with Urban Airship...

We use both, so it won't matter.

I always thought the Parse elevator pitch was something like:

- We provide an API-driven cloud database that doesn't limit you to the iCloud

- The more complicated the app, the more backend/infrastructure required. We simplify your backend.
