- browsergap 6y agoSort of but not exactly, because IIRC they used a downloadable client. I wanted something that could run anywhere easily, hence the browser client. I used KL a few times, and followed their story, and found it interesting they moved to Tokyo. At the time I considered Import.IO, KL, Connotate, Mozenda and DiffBot to be the main competitors. My main idea as a point of difference was to be able to share the structure you've mapped on web apps, and share the action sequences as things others can use, so everyone gets a network effect benefit from the work of everyone else. Thanks for posting. I don't think I knew they were YC, and did not know they were acquired by Palantir. That's interesting, and good news. Means the market is growing.
