How's it like working with schools/universities as a startup? I've always heard edtech can be a slow, bureaucratic sales cycle (and maybe not a high willingness to pay?).

I know a few different companies who ultimately moved out of the education market completely or just try to leverage their education traction as a beachhead to other markets. It sounds like you're focused on the education market - what's your take?

Can you explain a bit more about this? Are you building a profile of what I write and who I write it to? Fetching relevant examples and passing that through some (cloud?) LLM when writing the email?

I'm definitely curious on the technicals but there is also a bit of a trust element here - both on trusting that my email (likely some of my most sensitive data) is handled with care and trust that the actual responses are phrased well.

How are you handling the formatting and tone part of the email so that it doesn't sound like AI? I've tried to use AI tools for email multiple times but always end up significantly editing or rewriting the email myself.

Very cool, congrats on the launch! What's your plan for when one of the larger players like ElevenLabs or Google adds support for these languages? I would guess the reason why they haven't is because they don't see a large opportunity. How are you thinking about it?

This is really interesting, definitely going to give it a try! Seems fun but are you seeing people actually needing to make lots of videos like this? What's your vision - how does this become really big?

I'm curious - do you feel differently about some of these coding and coding-adjacent tools out there like Cursor and Lovable?

I know it's not unbiased, hence the quotes and why it is stated more as an observation of the how it can be difficult to find. Like most tools, this has flaws but I find it still useful because it presents questions to reflect on e.g. potential contradictions in logic and reasoning. I don't know of another way to get an analysis of inner thoughts easily.

Love the idea! It's hard to get an "unbiased" outside perspective, especially on more personal, inner thoughts. Will definitely try this out, thanks for sharing.

great response and one I wish people also abided by in normal day-to-day discussion. thank you, dang, for the great environment you maintain on HN.

Why do you think Anthropic has such a large system prompt then? Do you have any data or citable experience suggesting that the prompting isn't that important? Genuinely curious as we are debating at my workplace on how much investment into prompt engineering is worth it so any additional data points would be super helpful.

After this experience, do you think you'll ever build anything in the future with Electron? When do you think Electron is actually the right choice (if at all)?

Can anyone share some examples they think are strategic tools? I've read a solid number of these and am genuinely interested.

I was confused by this as ChatGPT launched in Nov 2022 and had tens of millions of users by end of 2022.

> And though when we started our business in 2023 (ChatGPT wasn’t out yet), you could begin to feel that something like that was possible in a way it wasn’t before.

perhaps a typo in year?

I have not listened to him - can you explain a bit for the uninformed among us?
