It seems like they take datasets, process them, and provide an API that allows one to query the dataset, and have like 21,000 datasets:<br><br><a href="https://opendata.socrata.com/browse" target="_blank">https://opendata.socrata.com/browse</a><br>

<br></div><div>Do you have any specific datasets in mind? Machine learning meetups have restarted and we're going to meet next some time in January. It could be a good opportunity for you to find people to work on your app with!<br>
