The Ting
What would happen if you let an app make all the decisions in your life?
In Berlin, four young people start a new company and co-develop a new app, the so-called Ting which gathers body-related data, evaluates it, and then uses this basis to provide behavioral and decision recommendations. The concept of Ting proves convincing - the app is wildly successful. However, in order to win more investors for the company, the four young start-up founders are soon forced to take part in a dangerous game. They sign a contract to follow all of Ting’s future recommendations, regardless of what happens, with fatal consequences.
