25-100k are meaningful angel / pre-seed checks and yet it all depends on how you show up for the company. I've seen plenty of cases where the bigger check writer helps less than the smaller one, both at the angel level and venture fund level!
What size of checks — at a minimum — does an Angel have to write to be impactful…?

This is what TripIt should have been. As a Pana for Business customer and an early investor, I'm really psyched about Pana Free. Come check it out. If you fly SW, the automatic check-in feature is magic!

I've been using this for awhile now and it keeps getting better and better. Simpler to use than some of the other tools and I can get reports submitted in minutes.

I got to spend some time with the company at our Sprint Mobile Heath Accelerator, powered by Techstars (full diclosure, I'm part of the Techstars investment team) and the product is real and the team is moving fast. I'm a backer of their Kickstarter campaign and am looking forward to it shipping.
My use case - I have plenty of water bottles, but really have no idea if I'm drinking enough...

I just backed these guys on Kickstarter and wrote a blog post about how they would have saved our house when we had a water leak. Love this product and the team behind it is impressive. http://arinewman.com/2014/09/water-leaks-suck-notion-saves/.
Full Disclosure: I work at Techstars, and they are in our Boulder program. Clear bias but my love for this is REAL. I'm an IoT dork.
