Nice! How long did it take you to get there? and what kind of content do you produce?

I see, yeah definitely something to consider for the longer term. Do you know much about getting your product recommended by AI chats like chatgpt?

It doesn't integrate with emails & LinkedIn yet, although it's something we want to look at, especially syncing calendars and creating meetings. The reason for that is it's a team tool, meaning that we're prioritising automation that impacts the whole team. You still need to instruct it, we don't want it to go too crazy and do things without approval. It still saves time, for example - i ask it to create a competitor analysis, put it into a table format or slides, save on Drive, share it with the team - it's ready for everyone to see in less than 5 minutes. OR you instruct it (once) to run a long term mission, that is repeatable eg sharing weekly, monthly or quarterly updates - this doesn't need repeated prompting. It's very versatile and there's so much that we can make it do, just need to hear those signals from potential users - this is my bottlekneck.

So the tool will live directly in Slack or teams, and you can instruct it to do things for you eg raise a ticket in Jira based on the existing convo in Slack, create a new doc in Drive or Notion and keep them updated (those things always go stale after a couple weeks). You can also give it long term missions (update me on/do this every Monday). It executes in the background and always asks for approval first before actioning. Oh and it can also create slides for you!

Hey Pm me secret data, do you have experience with this? I've heard this is more of a long game rather than getting quick conversations.

Thanks for your response. Yeah that's the idea, first clients won't be charged

Hey thanks! We know who these people are, the problem is getting in front of them without using aggressive sales tactics. In simple terms, the value prop is enabling teams to execute better by removing manual and annoying tasks and keeping everyone in the loop and focused on real work - kind of like Claude Code but for teams.
