IMO the superapp notion is a bit exaggerated. Lots of the Asian superapps superfeatures are just random buttons on random places created in decisions decentralized/scope creeping/workers overqualified/anemic management workplace that launch WebViews out of nowhere. The prerequisites are nonexistent leadership and smart yet business ignorant workers.
If you fill a few urban core skyscrapers to the brim with bunch of STEM/CS/CE uni grad kids, they'll start stuffing anything they are allowed to touch with super futuristic string theory thing for absolutely no reason. Someone's going to implement crypto mining feature on the live app. Others start doing LLMs working together with image generation teams while the image creation team with a quirky boss will have their own. That's how superapp gets created.
Also, Google is an American company, unless I'm grossly mistaken. You guys have a superapp and a superapp company already.
