16-Year-Old to Pitch Anti-Bullying App ‘ReThink’ on ‘Shark Tank’ [VIDEO]

An anti-bullying app designed to inspire social media users to reconsider posting something that may be hurtful is being pitched on 'Shark Tank' tonight. (9/23) Trisha Prabhu, the 16-year-old entrepreneur who created the app, came up with it as a middle-school science fair project.

'ReThink' sends users alerts as they create social media posts that could be considered hurtful, and gives them an opportunity to delete, edit, or continue to post. According to Prabhu's research, 93% of the potentially mean entries get deleted before they're posted.

'Shark Tank' airs locally on WJRT, tonight at 9.
