Jelly is a human-powered discovery and search parsing engine driven by images, founded in April 2013 by Biz Stone and Ben Finkel.

According to Biz Stone, the jellyfish was chosen to represent their product because it has a loose network of nerves that act as a “brain” similar to the way they envision loosely distributed networks of people

coordinating via Jelly to help each other.
