Disclaimer: Discord-hater here.
It seems that the core feature is the AI generated summary. This could be a paid plugin for the most important discussion platforms in the wild, for example: old-school PHP discussion boards, Discord, Slack, Twitter, Facebook and others. This plugin also could offer AI-augmented search or AI logging. The pro: people don't need to leave their platform to profit!
Another idea: Discord seems to be controversial. Some people love it, some people hate it. Instead of a plugin offer a discussion back-end with two frontends, one behaving like Discord, the other like a traditional discussion board.
Or do both. Whatever. One problem I see is missing focus. People might not understand what you do.
- philip1209 3y agoTo be clear, the summary is not AI-generated - at least, not yet. I talk in the demo about the 1% rule for users (1% post, 9% like/reply, and 90% just read). I envision each of these three as separate levels of engagement within Booklet: 1. Some users will post and create threads 2. Some users will read the summary email and never get deeper 3. Some users will see a thread in the summary email and get very engaged in that thread (for example, by commenting or following it) Based on my experience, chat does a good job of #1, a mediocre job of #2, and a terrible job of #3. Specifically - long-running threads lack discoverability or engagement in chat, so people can't modulate their engagement to the topics they care about. This is why I built discussions from the ground-up, rather than making some Slack plugin.
