Oh, come on now. You can be honest here... you want $30M like Summly & Wavii :)
And maybe you should get it. The app looks very impressive. How does your program decide which snippets are the most important? Did you build that technology or license/ use somebody else's code? B/c from what I understand, both Summly and Wavii were primarily acquired for their proprietary Natural Language Processing (NLP) tech. If your app is capable of NLP- and you built it from scratch- you likely have something of real value -- and you're probably in demand as an NLP engineer too.
I do wonder, however, if those recent acquisitions had anything to do with a recent court ruling concerning "Fair Use"/ summarization/ news aggregators. You might wanna take a look & make sure your aggregation of others' content is acceptable + truly protected under "Fair Use" principles. Please note, I am not an attorney.
