Well, I suppose not for consumables like food or fuel.
I've used this and it's a great idea, and works well in some contexts. One downside to be aware of is that it routes your slides/screenshare through your webcam video feed. In some apps (e.g. Teams) this can dramatically reduce the quality of the slides, relative to a 'normal' screenshare. There's a setting in Teams to increase video bandwidth, which mitigates this a bit. But the slides will still look less good (at…
They let you present a window that includes whatever is in your mmhmm video feed. It is the same content as your virtual mmhmm camera, but it comes across as a presentation, in higher resolution so the other participants can read your slides.
It is also very easy to find in apps like Meet when you use the "Present Now" function, because the window title is all-caps "SHARE THIS". :)
(The window doesn't appear on the screen, but it does appear in apps that let you present — I have tried it with Meet and Zoom.)

I don’t need an “argument” to charge a specific price or business model. I’ve created something and am offering it to anyone who will pay what I’m asking. Why, as a customer, would you care about my “argument” for my price as opposed to the value it creates for you? This product is expensive and I expect most people to walk away but I also see why they don’t want to go down the old Windows 3.1 route of a perpetual li…
>I don’t need an “argument” to charge a specific price or business model. I disagree, you need to sell your business model just as much as you need to sell your product. As a customer, 1. I need to know whether this is a fair pricing for the service, because I need to decide whether I should pay for it, or search (or wait) for an alternative. If it is overpriced, a cheaper alternative is likely to appear soon, and it…
That answer comes from you, not the content producer. He's said what he considers fair, for him. You need to decide if it's fair, for you.
MmHmm is by Phil Libin, the erstwhile founder/CEO of Evernote[1]. I stumbled on it when looking up old connections for something I'm doing now. Here is a video of Phil introducing MmHmm[2]. In my very limited and a few interaction with him, I found him to be a kind person, and was super responsive to a small guy when he was very busy, and around its peak with Evernote (2010-2011). While waiting for MmHmm's invite, I…
It /sounds/ neat, and the AI framing is interesting, the presenters head bobbing around was so distracting that I could barely keep focused on the content. It was recorded, so sadly he could not do anything about it as we were seeing it, and the chat box was full up with people asking him to turn it off.

Helping people do better remote meetings and presentations more easily seems pretty meaningful in the context of the present pandemic, where millions of people are suddenly having to do that (for the first time, in many cases).
That's a pretty strong presumption that that is what this software does.

No, it isn't; that is what I use this software for, almost every day. So do several of my co-workers.
