Been using it since alpha stage. Love the way I can ramble and it turns it into coherent paragraphs that I can edit for my recap of meetings or to prepare drafts of emails :)

Here's a quick overview of what we do: Our product helps software teams “make something people want.” When teams build or improve software, they crave data to inform their decisions, but calling, emailing, and surveying customers falls

Ummm... looks like we maxed out the number of concurrent viewers (max: 50) who can see the Google Doc. We're going to move the application to our blog.

Cool. Can you go a bit deeper and tell us why? As in, why is that more compelling to you?

Thanks. You're right that it's not just what users say. You have to observe what they do, too. In the next version of our product, we want to provide a "confidence score" for a person's feedback, which is based on

GovindKabra: Thanks for your feedback. Recently my co-founder asked me to build a google map for a feature showing all thumbs up it received displayed by location. Rather than building this feature, I kicked it on our page. We also have jav

Other incubator. 2012-2013. Came in with B2B enterprise software (invalidated that), and came out with a consumer subcom startup. Bootstrapped that to 6 figures in 12 months. Growth plateaued, but it's a going concern (~$7200 MRR). I

I love that you displayed your "innovation accounting" here. I'm wondering, how do you account for ongoing cost for maintaining/updating the software? I've never seen software that didn't require some TLC ove
