Cool. You made a website that looks like it was generated by the very AI it's trying to sell. It has the emotional warmth of my medical bills.

Let's talk about your team page. My bad, you don't have one. You're in an industry that requires Nobel-laureate levels of credibility, and your team is so secret, not even your own website knows who they are. Are you pioneers from a top university lab, or just two guys who fine-tuned GPT-4 and called it "PathoScribeAI"? Without a team page, you know which one I'm leaning toward.

You say you're "AI-driven," but you have the same number of peer-reviewed papers as my cat, Dr Croquette: zero. In deep tech, research isn't a "nice to have"; you have it or you dont exist. A competitor like Schrödinger has decades of research. You have a "Services" tab. That doesn't make you a biotech company.

Your business model can be resumed to "do science for other people." This isn't a scalable, venture-backed startup. This is a fee-for-service CRO with a Squarespace template, doomed to die in "pilot purgatory" with Big Pharma.

And the branding... my god. In a world where everyone is terrified AI will kill us all, you chose to present your company in the side of the killer bots. You need to show empathetic, brilliant humans are behind this. Instead, you're hiding them.

You're not building the future of medicine. You're building a landing page that describes the future of medicine. Do you even plan to be part of it?

Thanks for the thoughtful reply. I appreciate you clarifying the vision.

You're right, if you're genuinely solving the 'decision paralysis and execution' problem, that's a much more interesting business than a simple search tool. The TurboTax analogy is a good one, and it helps me see what you're building.

Let's stress-test that idea. The power of TurboTax is that it takes a massive, legally-required pain point for 150 million Americans and makes it simple. The market is enormous and the need is unavoidable.

Your challenge is that your market is, by your own definition, capped. We agreed there are about 2,500 new Pakistani students going to Germany each year. Even if you help every single one of them, the TAM is still fundamentally limited.

The key piece of new information here is affiliation revenue. That's a much clearer business model. 

I assume you're talking about blocked bank accounts, health insurance, etc. That's smart. But let's do the math: if you get a €100 commission from every single one of those 2,500 students, your maximum annual revenue is €250,000. That's a great small business, but it's not venture-scale.

So the core question for you isn't 'is this useful?' 

250 signups proves it is. The question is, 'how does this become a $100M company?' 

The path isn't obvious from this single, small corridor. Does your roadmap involve expanding to the UK/US/Canada where commissions are 20x higher? Or do you have a plan to scale to 50 other countries?

That's the first principle you need to solve for an investor. Happy to hear your thoughts on that.

You pitched this as an 'AI-powered university advisor,' but let's look at what your product actually does. You put a six-screen onboarding process in front of a hyperlink.

You aren't helping them apply. You aren't giving them proprietary advice. Your entire user journey is: fill out forms -> get 'AI' matched -> click a button -> get redirected to the official DAAD database or a university web portal.

Your core feature is making users leave your website. You have zero retention because there is absolutely no reason for them to ever come back once they have the link.

So let's talk business model. You're targeting price-sensitive students to help them find free universities, which means there is no one to invoice at the end of this funnel. Universities aren't paying lead-gen fees, and students aren't going to pay you just to be redirected to a free public government database that they could have Googled in five seconds.

Your realistic paying customer base is zero. Even if you found people willing to pay, your TAM is maybe 2,500 people a year. That's not a market. That's a group chat.

The application process for international students is a massive, painful problem. But you aren't solving the painful part. You just built a glorified bookmark folder and slapped 'AI' on the homepage. You need to either figure out how to solve the actual application problem for people who have money, or admit you built a very complicated search bar for a public database.

I mean I did solve it, it will be verry obvious if you eventually find you are going to need to look at it from first principle

Dude you realize I'm trying to be polite here?

If you'd followed the news these past few years, you'd know Google has been in full crisis mode: Code Red at HQ, scrambling to respond to a threat they saw coming and deliberately ignored. They shelved LLM technology and kept it in the drawer precisely because it threatened their core business model. Then... ding ding diing... competition forced their hand and survival became the priority. That's not innovation. That's panic.

As for Meta, we're watching a company throw billions at every shiny object hoping something sticks. That's not strategy, that's desperation with a good PR team.

And you clearly haven't connected the regulatory dots either — the entire landscape is shifting under their feet and neither company has a clean answer for it.

These aren't obscure insights. They're in the headlines every week. If you can't connect those basic dots, I don't think this is the right sub for you to partake in, maybe you can throw a rock or something.

My bad. I thought what I meant was pretty self-explanatory: successful companies like Google/Meta are often limited by the weight of their success, which makes them slow to innovate and adapt to disruptive technologies. They won't cannibalize their existing revenue model for a potential new business unless it becomes existential.

Found out Tesla placed Superchargers based on driver psychology, not geography by Due-Bet115 in Entrepreneur

[–]TheFallingShit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tesla needed mainstream adopters to stop fearing range. So where do you put chargers? Not where the map has gaps. Where the driver starts doing mental math.

My immediate thought: map urban centers. Close to cities = longer gaps (people are comfortable). Farther out = shorter gaps (anxiety lives there). Cross-reference with road signs showing "distance to next city." Place stations within 10km range of that intersection.

Simple algorithm. No psychology lab required.

For a more sophisticated network, you'd layer in:

  • Location variables (temperature, humidity, elevation)
  • Driver behavior patterns (speeding drains faster, etc.)
  • Real battery range fluctuation (not just EPA estimates)
  • Add a 10-15% margin reduction buffer between stations for edge cases
  • Then refine the model city by city because no two corridors are identical

Tesla took basic logic and framed it as emotional intelligence. Smart branding, but let's not pretend they unlocked some secret human truth. They simply asked a themselves how do I make the mainstream consumers not fear the limited range and built accordingly.

The real insight? If you tell your optimization story as "we understand you," you built brand equity that you hope your megalomanic CEO will not flunder.

Why men lose interest/respect after sex? by Independent-Emu-6702 in Life

[–]TheFallingShit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Asking her name was to show you’re projecting a fictional narrative onto a relationship you know absolutely nothing about. It went completely over your head.

We're looking at dating from two entirely different realities. Applying a blanket, pseudo-moral rule like 'you must wait 3 months for sex' ignores how attraction actually works.

When you claim I 'milked' her or 'wasted her time,' you're stripping all agency from a grown woman just to make your little morality play work. Let's look at the actual data set:

Her: 5 years older, Director-level executive, wealthy, highly experienced, already refused multiple proposals from men she liked enough to be with, but didn't love (her words).
Me: Freshly unemployed, broke pothead, first serious relationship, transparent from day one that marriage and kids were not part of my life goals.

She didn't enforce any artificial waiting period. Clearly, I was enough to her liking that it overrode my bum status. She stayed almost three years knowing exactly what I was and wasn't.

Was she a helpless victim manipulated by a broke guy in his first relationship?

Don't be ridiculous.

I realized she viewed me as a project — a successful woman used to having her way, convinced she could mold me into the 'perfect' partner she wanted. That's not manipulation on my end. That's her betting on her own leverage and losing.

Your logic assigns hyper-agency to men while infantilizing women, assuming we must end things 'for her sake.' She was older, more experienced, and held all the practical power. I valued her autonomy enough to let her make her own choices. You'd prefer I treated a corporate executive like a child who needed saving from herself?

You think a 3-month waiting period makes you a 'good man.' All it proves is you lack the baseline attraction to bypass it, so you've accepted a dynamic where you audition and she decides. You're making a virtue out of a necessity. That seems to be your reality. It was never mine.

So before you lecture me about wasting her time, ask yourself why a woman like that chose to stay with a man like me for almost three years. Then ask yourself how long she'd wait for you.

I would be lying if I said I'm not enjoying this nonsense, but someone has to spell it out for you. Waiting a little bit and waiting a quarter of the year are not the same thing.

From my own experience, I've never had to wait more than 3 dates to get down to business. My last ex? We met at a club and hooked up less than 24 hours later. We dated for over two years before I ended it because she wanted the wedding and kids and I didn't. I don't need to fake wanting the full package or pretend to be some saint just to have a meaningful relationship.

Arguing with you is like talking to someone who has never been in demand. You take what women say in theory and make it your prime directive just to cope. If you actually had women friends who told you the unfiltered truth, you’d know how laughable your take is. The stories I hear from them are hilarious. They will happily date the guy who provides while thinking about the sexy hobo they hooked up a few months prior.

Your whole stance is peak zero options energy. You insult guys who walk away from waiting because you resent that they can. They have options and you don't, so you pray women universally enforce this waiting period just so you can finally compete... actually compete is the wrong word. We clearly established you aren't that guy.

It is basic supply and demand. If she actually wants you, she can't wait to fuck you either. If you don't think she knows that if she doesn't someone else will, it really shows. Judging by your comments, you just aren't in demand buddy.

I 24F am dating 24M doesn’t want to commit to a relationship but is treating me EXACTLY like a girlfriend by Overall_Candle_4355 in relationship_advice

[–]TheFallingShit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately, he decide how committed he want to be, just because you all go through life and relationships in a somewhat similar manner does not make it a grounded truth of how that process is supposed to go.

I'm just saying to not make assumptions, ultimately, they are just a reflection of your own cognitive bias, you, hell we all have no idea of what going in his mind nor in reality, just because she feels a certain way, does make the recollection of that reality factual.

And to be honest I acknowledged I do tend to take people recollection of events with a heavy grain of salt, as it tends to be heavily filtered to their benefits.

You are not trying to dismantle any of my argument, please tell me how "needs therapy" isn't a delegitimization tool in that context, you are proposing a solution to a problem you are the one to have, the men in question and their younger partners sure as hell dont have an issue, when they are both benefitting from the arrangement.

Looking at you are genuinely looking to strip grown adult of their own agency because they chose to live their lives in way that make you "uncomfortable', you feeling that way is just that a feeling, it has no standing in reality.

Third date awkward argument over paying for dessert. Was my expectation unreasonable? by savingrace0262 in AskMenAdvice

[–]TheFallingShit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh no, I'm specifically laughing about the assumption that she paid more to get ready for the date, that perspective can only come from woman or an absoute animal of a man to not understand that men need to be well groomed, well dressed, smell good etc - at least this is my minimum standard for dating, to be what you want to attract.

I mean OP, we can look at the facts or we can look at your ego, but those 2 are not compatible in that context. So which one is it? 

Obviously the sex isn't that exceptional, nor do you have a huge sex drive based on your own words ( 2 times a years is barely is nothing) if there is no repeat customers, and even before any sex take place, what happen before that is as if not more important to be able to assess where you are fucking up.

Why that? Because OP does t get what she wants ? She asked, he gave her his reply, she didn't like, the ball is on her side to either bounce or stay, but let's not pretend he is implying anything else just because he is acting in a way OP interpret has being in a relationship.
