Great pitch. What many don't know is that @chamillionaire has been diligently building up to this (studying the space, connecting w vc's & founders, building networks, investing) for over a decade. I'm inspired by those who have the focus to play the long game in a world that begs us not to. Convoz looks cool.

Loved using the app. Super simple. Make it easy to share w/ elderly family members...
Pros: Great way to simplify a process that too many people put off doing. AMAZING new way to direct capital to good causes.
Cons: How can you make it easier for tech savvy folks to share this with their elderly parents without it being awkward? Question, not a con...

Cool. You have Hollar listed as having the most Black employees out of the companies listed. However, after taking a look at their team page, I think you may have transposed the Black and Asian #'s for that company.

$29 to give you all of my Google contacts? That's a tough sell but on the other hand, I would love to see all of my contacts on a map so maybe it'll be worth it for some.

I've been a fan of this team since beta. This has been my most important business app outside of Google's G Suite. Looking forward to trying out the biz edition.

I've suggested @skurtapp to a number of friends and fam visiting LA & Miami. Looking forward to seeing Skurt hit DC & the Bay. I love seeing innovation displace clunky old systems. I see my guy Everette hustling hard. Keep up the great work team.

I like it a lot. I've been using the Intro app by About.me for a year or so now and haven't missed using business cards even once. I'll try Ping for a while. Here's something to look into - the Twitter and LinkedIn icons in the email that the new contact receives appear stretched when viewed via Gmail on an iOS device. Also, I agree w/ Ryan. Create some easy paths to get contacts into CRMs and...

Dan & Coley, this is great. Congrats on the launch. You mentioned launching in only a handful of states. What are the (regulatory, insurance, other...) hurdles you're running into as you look to take the platform nationwide?
Also, how do you see this platform serving low income communities?

Such a great concept. Congrats Erik. There are so many amazing, creative, hard working players behind every success story in this industry. Can't wait too see them get some love! This may also encourage/ remind founders to do a better job of highlighting the people they count on to keep the ship afloat.

Looks cool. Did Google announcing that ChromeOS can run Android apps now change your strategy or product roadmap at all?

Congrats. Looks very cool. Seems to be very similar to @geteverblume (geteverblume.com). What's your differentiator in what may soon become a crowded space? Any thoughts on developing a product for commercial use vs just 1 for personal?

Super competitive space. Looks interesting but the pricing is pretty high and the onboarding experience is (so far) underwhelming. Keep at it. I'd love to see this succeed.

Glad to hunt this. You can learn alot about a founder/ team by watching how they navigate a pivot. I'm impressed. Matt is one of the smartest and scrappiest founders I know.
Question - are there any particular verticals you're targeting or seeing early traction in?
