Fixya is a technical support information website designed to help consumers repair and troubleshoot product problems by themselves [1]. With the growing popularity of "virtual community" web sites Fixya is offering a web 2.0 approach to technical service. Fixya's community members serve both by posting questions and as advisers. Fixya also includes information and manuals for consumer electronic products.

Services[edit]

Fixya aggregates all post-sale information (Manuals, User guides, FAQ’s Troubleshooting, Drivers, etc.) of consumer products. In addition, Fixya serves as a knowledge base of support questions and answers, that is being constantly updated by its community self generated threads.

Fund raising[edit]

In early March 2007 Fixya raised $4 Million [2] form Mayfield and Pitango VCs.

Competition[edit]

With the rise of the web 2.0, more sites emerge to offer similar services Techlore[3] and supportspace[4] are the latest examples.
