The pitch doesn’t tell me what’s unique about this app vs. google meet which is what we use - and that has built-in chat. If we want to involve people not in the call we can synchronously use a slack channel.
Without downloading the app and convincing a few others to try it I have no meaningful way to evaluate it, and since I don’t have issues with my current solution I have zero incentive to evaluate an alternative without at least an obvious advantage.
- asim 6y agoIf you see the screenshot on the landing page you'll notice the layout. It's laid out like slack but includes audio/video bubbles in the room. The idea is that we don't really want to spend a lot of time staring at each other, it's not natural. Going fully remote during Covid we found slack on its own wasn't enough for us and zoom or Google meet just forced us into this staring contest that felt unnatural. With distributed small bubbles provide "presence" for the person without necessarily focusing on them.
