Thanks! We're looking at integrating Ola, Grab's not on our list yet but maybe in the near future :)

We'd all much rather just be an open standard for it, but the reality is the platforms will never give this control away without a fight - we're trying to take it, piece by piece :D

thanks for your input! at the moment, we have a couple of features that improve the face region quality, but we'll be adding more complex features in the future as well.

We'll be looking to build these types of features in the near future, as our engine evolves. It's challenging yes, but not impossible.

yes, the Head Bubble puts your head in a bubble, making your background black and tracking your head. it's a great way to hide your background and it really takes away any distractions from video calls.

thanks for the feedback, tomp. we didn't tailor the article for a specific audience, we tried to be as transparent as possible with our vision & mission. we'll think of ways of improving communication both for casual users and users like the HN audience.

awesome, hope it works well and it brings value to your video call experience :)

we want to make this app usable for most people in the free version too. we see styles as the core component of the overall UX and being able to select the right style for a given setting is quite useful. we think that many users will appreciate a wider choice. we’ll be adding additional features to the Plus version in the future while also continuously improving the tech.

guessbest replied perfectly regarding the background question.

about the gesture guard, we believe there are many scenarios in which it would be useful. We realize sneezing or coughing might not be the worst to witness during a video call, but other actions like picking your nose, biting your nails, etc might be perceived as inappropriate, so we're aiming not just to hide those moments, but to help users get rid of the bad habits on the long-run. and then there's the nudity detector, which I covered in one of the other comments.

yes you may :) however, Android is much more fragmented platform and it’s only really possible to run the advanced ML algorithms we’re using on the newest Android phones. so.. we’ll probably have some level of Android support in the future, but it’s not clear which of the features on which devices.

hey xutopia, thanks for the feedback. the only ad in the app is towards our other app, NeuralCam NightMode. we do have a 7-day trial option available, you can try out all the features with it and cancel at any time if they're don't bring you enough value.
