The intent was not to hijack the discussion but to provide choices to the people. After all, we are talking about Loom alternatives here.

We built neetoRecord ( https://neeto.com/neetoRecord ) which is also a Loom alternative. Full disclosure - I'm part of the team that built neetoRecord.

100% agree. That's problematic. We will fix it. I added this license around a couple of years ago. I remember that I was in a hurry since Google needed a policy document to approve our application for "Google login". Still th

If you look at our product metrics, then numbers are anemic. Constantly, I get messages from all the corners not to publish the numbers that make us look bad. But that's the reality. That's how most of the startups start. https:&

I think the subscription model is fine. What's not fine is the cost of subscription software. With so much competition in the market the price should go down but unfortunately so far that has not been the case. We at neeto from get go

Inspite of all the competition the SAAS pricing is not coming down. There are around 30 calendly alterntatives. However if you check the price of these alternatives they are not too far from what the market leader is charging. More on this

At this stage of the business we don't think we can do a good job of calculating the life time value of a customer. So currently we are not considering lifetime access.

Credit card companies charge 2.7% + 30 cents for each transaction. It makes it very difficult to charge for anything less than $4. I'm with you on your ask for 1 euro/dollar per user per month. And that's what is reflect in o

Absolutely. We are optimizing for sustainability. The important thing is not to die. As long as we are alive and we are serving our customers well then we are in "business".

All good points. Here is my take. Churn is so high because the cost is high. Cost is high because they spend money on marketing and sales. They need to spend that money to have growth because product is the only thing we are doing. You coul
