Love the idea and would have helped me in many remote work situations. Could also be good for documentation.

However, from the home page I cannot determine what this really provides over recording a video and sending via slack, telegram, or other methods of chat - I mean, i guess it will allow you to label and comment and put the videos in a hierarchy, but anything else?

So do Slack threads with videos in them.

Or a #standup channel where people send in videos, that's what we do.

Have you seen people lately who don't have a smartphone with them? :-P

This is a perfect example for software that tries to solve a problem that doesn't exist.

It can be done with whatever: - record video (notebook / smartphone / ...) - send / share / embed into some other software (messenger / wiki / ...)

You are obviously good at marketing stuff (to people who don't know better) and monetizing stuff that is basically free.

That cries for an award with a title like "silver ferengi medal" ;-)

This is a perfect example of a comment that undervalues simplicity and ease of use (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=9224 is another one).
