> X is the future state of unlimited interactivity – centered in audio, video, messaging, payments/banking – creating a global marketplace for ideas, goods, services, and opportunities. Powered by AI, X will connect us all in ways we’re just beginning to imagine.
Audio, Video, Messaging, Payments and AI, all in a single product pitch.
I guess then "X" is an appropriate brand for something that even the owner doesn't know WTF is about.

- tiltowait 3y agoAn "everything app" sounds a lot like what I understand WeChat to be. Can't say I want it, but it's not without precedent, apparently.
- hakfoo 3y agoI'd love to see someone explain the WeChat mystique for people who aren't in its target ecosystem. It seems like, if you're making something flexible enough to handle payments, various social and interactive services, and yet somehow fall short of being a full web browser, haven't you just reinvented Prodigy for the 2020s? I assume at this point it largely runs on momentum in a Facebookesque way-- it no longer has to be particularly food at any given service because the sheer mass of its userbase will make it a major player in every market it goes near. But that doesn't explain initial success. Was it catapulted by a specific environmental condition (i. e. they got zero-rated at a point where mobile data was too expensive to just choose random websites to browse?) or a dramatically better ergonomic experience?
