Thanks for the feedback :)
One challenge of writing an article for a large audience is trying to keep things brief. Since I wasn't really writing about the investor experience - I was writing about tech having a blind spot for the way a giant part of America lives - I didn't want to spend too much time on the investor anecdote.
A more detailed way to explain it would have been that the investor absolutely "got what we did" - it really isn't that complicated.
But at the same time, he didn't "GET IT" - he didn't grasp the massive opportunity in front of us (millions of brick-and-mortar retail locations with no HR technology in place, 75 million hourly workers having to put up with terrible online applications, etc), or why what we've built is so useful for our specific market - and I think that's reflective of a larger blind spot in technology for this slice of the world.
