I didn't like that Google is the only option to sign up. And didn't like the 7 day free trial on providing credit card process. And the price is steep.

- pedalpete 4y agoI mostly disagree with your comment. Google sign-up is fine as a starting point for a product, I find the price is probably quite reasonable. I can somewhat agree with requiring a credit card on sign-up, but it does give an idea of if people are REALLY willing to pay, or just kicking the can.

- chernobai 4y agoRegarding Google – we're planning to introduce other methods later this week. Regarding credit card process – that's understandable. Unfortunately, that's the most robust way we know to measure how many people would buy a subscription.
- xpe 4y agoWhat is the primary goal? To measure how many people are willing to provide a credit card? Probably something else, right? So what is the key metric? And have you made a back-of-the-envelope estimate on the tradeoff you're making towards the key metric?
- chernobai 4y agoRegarding credit cards – that's precisely our goal. To see how many people would be ready to pay (or provide a credit card at least). Of course, our product is not as developed as one would expect and we're going to see many cancellations. But it provides a useful data point for us nevertheless. Then we can act on the feedback and develop the product further to lower cancellation rate.
