Alex Milewski and Sherisse Hawkins walked into the Tank in Season 6, Episode 25 in the episode that aired April 17, 2015, bringing their Boulder, CO business with them. Beneath the Ink, the online services, pitched in the Tech & Software category, one of 73 tech & software businesses to brave the Tank across all 17 seasons.

On the carpet, the number was $350,000 for a 10% stake, which valued the company at $3.5M.

The sharks passed, and Beneath the Ink left without a deal. That's not always the end of the story. Some of Shark Tank's most successful companies were rejected on air and grew anyway, using the exposure (the "Shark Tank effect") to drive sales the sharks missed out on.

Beneath the Ink was one of 116 businesses to pitch in Season 6, where 66 deals got done. In the Tech & Software category overall, roughly 56% of pitches have landed a shark across the show's history.
