Smart rollout, to start with Arrive (package tracking, even for non-shopify packages). Everyone can benefit from that - and then once the app is installed, you can benefit from having a single app for preferred vendors.
Just yesterday I had to buy cat litter from the website of my local pet shop online to do contactless pickup. They use Shop Pay for the payment so I didnt have to re-enter...

I'd love to see this work great, but there have been so many teams trying to solve this, and no one is there yet. (I just did a round of transcription with Trint and had to do a ton of cleanup after). I'll wait on early reviews before I check it out.

Wait, what? Who is going to choose to be advertised to and want to go to that side. And which advertiser is going to choose to be relegated to be hidden?

I've used Prefinery for several product launches and have always been impressed with it. Easy to set up, easy to use and Justin is a super responsive maker if you do have questions / comments.

Love this - there are plenty "record your screen" chrome extensions. Soapbox adds a simple editbar and blows everything else I've seen out of the water! I'll definitely be using this for quick little videos to share out. Thanks Wistia!

I was so excited when @adamberk mentioned this concept to me! As aspiring founders, we're generally in love with our idea, and it can be easy to ignore or overlook big signals we're going in the wrong direction. Our friends and family may unwittingly (or intentionally) give us supportive but unhelpful feedback.

As others have said, would love if this were to fill the gap blab left. However, they really struggled with the monetization piece - I'm a bit skeptical that paid private chat rooms will fill that void (because at that point, aren't you just video chat like zoom?) but I hope you can make it work!

Oooh, a colleague mentioned this a few weeks ago (maybe speculation, or maybe he knew something?) Super excited to see this official announcement!

Whoa- I loved the concept behind the MS Surface Hub, but never really saw the vision realized. This is way more compelling, so if Google can pull this off AND make it affordable, this is a slam dunk!
Remember when Google stuff was ugly but functional? Times have changed!

Thanks guys! This helps dispel the "no one would pay for a bot" sentiment... There's $ there, It's just not end-users. It'll be interesting to see how these investments pan out.

Customer support is an area aching for disruption, and the team behind HiOperator looks like they could be the ones to do it?? A startup team is stretched thin for resources and this could help offload some work, BUT does that mean the founders are risking losing out on unique insights b/c they're distancing themselves from customers? At what stage in a company's life do you think HiOperator is...
