Charles Armour

Charles is a serial entrepreneur in the Pensacola area with over a decade of experience in software development and systems operations. Charles developed systems to protect music, movies, and software on peer-to-peer networks while working with P2P Engineering, then turned that knowledge into a patented, peer-to-peer, live content distribution platform with Beyond Media. After combining these firms with Atlanta-based Intent MediaWorks and Los Angeles-based DAVE Networks to form Brand Asset Digital, Charles continued to develop code and strategies while managing systems operations across what had become a wide variety of platforms and systems. After leaving Brand Asset Digital, Charles started Wirehead Labs to provide venture technology services to companies in need of stellar development for their startup ideas. Vernon found Charles at Wirehead Labs and convinced him to help with a Twitter-scale natural language processing platform – the rest is history. Charles’ broad experience and familiarity with blowholes allowed him to create the platform that powers the NeedTagger service.
