Imagine Perplexity meets Google Maps, but with results that personalize to you.
Today we're launching beta access to AI Map Search, our contextual answer engine.

review is devastating for the future of Humane. The most trusted tech reviewer saying it’s the worst product he’s ever reviewed is going to eviscerate sales.
In a Stanford talk posted today, Eric Schmidt says the reason why Google is losing to

and other startups is because Google only has people coming in 1 day per week 👀
I think that Clubhouse could pull off a second act by quickly cloning the Twitter feed and not just being audio anymore. It already has the nearly the same follow graph and seems like an easy win.

Why did you just suspend Paul Graham? He said he no longer believes in Twitter and was instantly suspended. Doesn’t seem like this is a safe place to speak freely anymore.

I did this once when I had to wait 4 hours at SFO. They don’t allow inbound passengers to use the Amex lounge… so I booked a refundable ticket and cancelled after they let me in.

This damages your brand. It's crazy that the
#1
tech reviewer known for advocating for quality and usefulness would release a cash-grab subscription app with terrible UI design, filled with ads, and offering mediocre wallpapers.
Axie Infinity is on track to get to $2.7 billion in annualized revenue without an ad platform and only 2m DAU.
The potential for play to earn social networks is insane. Snapchat has 308m DAU and will be ~$4bn revenue this year. The first web3 social app that scales will be huge.

That’s why this is so devastating.
Your introduction to it is someone saying it’s the worst product they’ve ever reviewed. It’s a branding crisis for them.
It's pretty mind-blowing how fast our subscription revenue keeps climbing.
Maps are by far the most under-innovated sector on mobile — and people are clearly willing to pay for even the most minor of innovative features.
The next few updates make Superlocal truly novel and

This recent A/B test on our primary paywall had a surprising outcome: switching from our standard blue to a red button resulted in a 25% increase in trial starts, challenging our assumption that red would underperform.

I’m liberal as heck, but attacking Jeff Bezos isn’t the move to drive election results. The company he created directly employees almost 1.3 million people and he himself comes from a very modest background— he’s the ultimate American dream.
The weirdest “flex” I keep seeing on Twitter over the past few days is people showing themselves deleting Clubhouse. This is unnecessarily mean to the people working on the product. If you don’t use it, there’s no reason to be mean about it. Don’t be a jerk.
View count feature feels like a big product mistake.
It adds so much pressure to perform… it seems like it will significantly reduce post creation and increase post deletion.
It’s also feature for a content platform, not a communication platform.
The example of calorie detection that they show with
@Humane
is wildly inaccurate 😬
1 almond is around 0.26g of protein.
The amount in his hand is closer to 5g of protein. Not 15g — which is about 60 almonds.
@levie
This button I added on app delete lets users emails me directly to give feedback/support and has been one of the most helpful things ever finding edge case bugs, deciding what to build/focus on next, etc.
Hinge’s growth is insane.
Match just shared that they acquired Hinge for $25m in 2018 (first time terms have been disclosed).
In 2018, Hinge did $5.2m total revenue.
Hinge is now on track to do $400m+ rev in FY23.

TikTok is out of control now. It’s more clear than ever why it should be banned.
Any comment section where the creator is Jewish is horrifyingly antisemitic now. There’s no way these kids had these thoughts a month ago.
@anuatluru
I strongly believe the more a person travels and makes it part of their identity, the less happy they are. Obsession with traveling is a constant quest to escape reality.
One of the biggest mistakes I see social app founders make, which I've been guilty of, is obsessing over aesthetic design... especially before you have product-market fit. It seems to be a symptom of designing for other designers/designing with ego rather than for regular people.
A funky, experimental feature concept inspired by AirTags. Map-free directions... we just tell you which direction to go towards and how far away you are from the final destination.

We are a small company, so this is how we use our product to do something good when we cannot afford to donate. So definitely not tasteless.
An increasing amount of consumer founders are falling into a trap of optimizing their products for getting praise from Design Twitter, rather than building useful features or focusing on growth.
Beautiful animations won’t get you PMF. Useful features and growth are how you win.
Our team of 4 has built map search that significantly outperforms both Google Maps and Apple Maps.
When searching for 4th of July fireworks, Google Maps suggested a location 118 miles away, while Apple Maps provided just one random result. Superlocal, displayed 5 nearby

Venice is the best. Like this is a block away from me (pick from this AM!)... ocean 3 mins in the other direction. Venice is also totally walkable and has a small community vibe. ✨
