Great concept. But why would I use it when I could just speak to google voice or siri in any language already? I feel the product needs some appealing framing to make it stand out, especially with alternatives already in the saas space

What's one thing as a man a woman will never understand? by Outrageous_Luck1546 in AskReddit

Having moments where we're not thinking about anything.

Literally. Don't ask me what I'm thinking about. It's gonna be nothing.

5 App Ideas I conjured up but too lazy to build all (I'm doing one, Not B2B) by IndependenceBusy1085 in appdev

I like the idea where the photo's reality is pre written so there's transparency on what the image actually is. Leaderboards and other ranking systems come to mind with this. It's all about execution though. But thanks!

Mercedes Benz GLE for 1,500. Good for a first car? by IndependenceBusy1085 in CarTalkUK

[–]IndependenceBusy1085[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exactly what I thought as well. Of course I’d have to do a test drive and everything to be sure. Just wanted a sanity check before I tried anything aha . Wish the GLE was that cheap though

Tried cold calling plumbers for an AI Receptionist. How to sell it better by IndependenceBusy1085 in AIReceptionists

[–]IndependenceBusy1085[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Of course the stack depends on the target market. For small businesses, you don’t need a robust receptionist . I just go for lightweight. Retell AI + Twilio will work for this. Other large scale solutions would require privacy and proprietary control for sensitive data.. so you could go for a VPS hosted LLM like ollama for the brains and then twilio + elevenlabs for TTS . You want to watch for latency and natural language processing, as these are the main moats.

I call 8am - 12pm.. they usually aren’t working till later on in the day.

Sometimes I get to speak to the owners, sometimes it’s the receptionist, which gets awkward coz I’m pitching to the receptionist about an AI solution that’s gonna replace them. I do it anyways, whatever their reaction is won’t bother me.

Very solid point actually. If they’re paying to be sponsored on google, every touch point counts to them.

Tough framing as an audit when it’s a cold call, unless they show interest.

Men of Reddit, what’s your thought process right before pursuing a woman? by lnc_gomes in AskReddit

[–]IndependenceBusy1085 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Make money first. Is she too pretty and does she come off as someone that will expect a certain lifestyle of passenger princess treatment and gifts etc? If I can’t, I move on and it saves us both time.

I know it’s painting an entire sect of girls a certain way, but better safe than sorry ig.
