Oh boy, I have quite a lot of thoughts. I'll try and compress them and order by priority:

- The popup on your website persists on every page, on every reload, and it locks scroll. This is terrible UX and should be eliminated. In the future you might consider an A/B test with a popup, but it shouldn't trigger on scroll, rather a time delay.

- Yes, this is an extremely crowded space, and your home page language doesn't differentiate Robofy whatsoever. On the Wordpress page, you claim "the first and only Wordpress AI Chatbot powered by ChatGPT" and that type of language is off-putting; are you prepared to defend that statement?

- Your first three key selling points (KSPs) are 1) Reduce support time & cost by 50%, 2) Customised ChatGPT, and 3) Multi-channel integration. I don't think those are the most compelling ideas.

- You have some really great reviews/testimonials, but they're on the pricing page?? Definitely move those to the home page.

- How well defined is your core target audience? If your first KSP is "reduce support time" are you competing with Zendesk, Intercom, and similar customer support solutions? Is your primary goal to offer support?

- My suggestion is to emphasize "increased engagement & conversion" in some capacity. The KSP on the site could be something like "Increase (leads, sales, signups, etc) by XX%" and then support that with some external sources; eventually you could replace that with case studies.

- A video showing Robofy in use would do extremely well for your target demographics (assuming generally less/non-technical people).

I could go on but I've exceeded my allotted time in writing this reply. I'll send you a bill (just kidding).

Good luck :)

Favorite quote from the article, and a conclusion many of us have come to:

"What's the use of ranking high with content that doesn't engage visitors? If they feel like a bot wrote the content, it defeats the purpose.

If this is what it takes to rank on a search engine, then there's something wrong with the search engine itself."

I've run a marketing company with 7 figure monthly spend. SEO can be extremely important and impactful, particularly in emergent markets, niche products/services, or brand-heavy offers (whether defensive or offensive - think "Best Notion competitors 2023").

But, sadly, it's mostly a devolved game of cat-and-mouse, subject to the effervescent whims of Google, whose ultimate objective is to maximize their ability to serve ads. It's near impossible to get organic content to the first SERP for any remotely competitive keyphrase unless you or your referrers are shelling out cash to Google in some capacity.

I've been pitched by dozens of SEO freelancers and smaller agencies, and the majority of them do have some basis in somewhat provable metrics, but the cost is completely unreasonable relative to the long-term expected value from their results.

I generally don't recommend budgeting for SEO specifically unless you have around $10k+/mo in marketing spend. If you have quality content written and informed by a decent keyphrase strategy, you're usually better off with paid search ads that direct to such content; the expectation is that if your content is relevant and engaging (especially if it converts and you're passing confirmation of that conversion back to Google via GTM or GA) your quality score will increase, which inversely decreases your CPC. You'll tend to rank higher organically for the same keyphrases you're running paid search ads on if you play things well.

Despite making plenty of money from doing this effectively, I long for a future where discovery across the internet isn't beholden to a few corporate gatekeepers.

A project of mine is evaluating Rev AI for HIPAA-compliant transcription for case notes.

https://www.rev.com/blog/rev-spotlight/announcing-rev-ai-hip...

This isn't just transcription, it's also summarizing the entire 30/60 minute visit. Well, supposedly. I just have a hard time seeing how this small company is so far ahead of everyone else, while being able to run on Google Cloud and AWS.

The first thing I look for when I see a new app in the cognitive space is the privacy policy. Here it is in its entirety (https://www.comigo.ai/privacy):

* Information We Collect: We collect information you provide when you register for our Service, including your Google account data. This data includes, but is not limited to, your name and email address.

* Security: We prioritize protecting your data and have implemented technical and organizational measures to ensure its safety. However, no method of transmission or storage is entirely secure, thus we cannot guarantee absolute security.

* Changes to this Privacy Policy: We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page.

I've been working on my own similar, local-first solution for several years, because I simply cannot introduce a significant external dependency to my mental stack. Behavioral data is some of the most sensitive and dangerous data to leak.

There's irony with these types of apps: the more utility I can gain from them, the more risk I have should they introduce dark patterns, become defunct, or even make well-intended changes that break my personal workflows.

The scenario outlined on Comigo's home page begins with the user prompt "Hey Comigo my board meeting is in 4 hours and I wasn't able to work on my presentation slides..." - a context-aware agent would certainly have pre-empted this well before the same day, right?

Sorry if this seems overly critical. I have a lot of passion for this space, and there's a huge need, but there's something like 20,000+ "mental health" apps out there, and nearly every single one I've encountered has big red flags.

This policy says very little about what happens to the chat logs. In particular: will other humans (e.g. developers, analysts, etc.) have access to them? If so, I wouldn't trust it with anything.

Across the dozens of Chrome threads over the last week, I haven't seen discussion about the impact of businesses' usage of Google Workspace. I'm sure this is relevant to the discussion on moving away en masse from Chrome; I use Firefox primarily but need to use Chrome for various organizations.

There's quite a few really useful features for Workspace org admins, from blocklists and telemetry to provisioning browser extensions and adding bookmarks, and most of these features require end users to use Chrome. In fact, you can configure security policy such that end users can only use Chrome to login to their company account, and there are multiple reasons from a corporation's perspective to enforce these types of policies.

Microsoft 365 is the most dominant player, and I assume Google Workspace is second in enterprise user account management. Are there any prominent, stable open-source business cloud stacks that meaningfully compete here?

This year, I've been trying a variation of "morning pages" where I'll take a 15-30m walk and speak with myself. I use a pair of old Beats around my neck, which have surprisingly good noise cancellation, and Otter for transcription (moving to a local Whisper workflow soon).

I've A/B tested this against using a text editor, with the control as doing nothing in the morning, and at least for me personally, I find I'm practically itching to sit down and write more or edit my spoken thoughts before I'm even finished with my walk.

I'm generally more motivated and productive on days I begin with this routine. I think it's all about getting momentum for your brain; once there's a flow of output, it tends be much easier to direct or filter that flow in whichever directions you choose.

I still work to reduce friction and lower the activation energy when sparking output, but there is very much a discipline component here. I know plenty of executives that use daily standups or assistants in lieu of a mental morning routine... I wonder if future personalized language models may help?

Out of curiosity - what are you actually doing on these walks? You're talking outloud to yourself and then editing later or what?

Typically, I run through lists like to-dos for companies/projects, the day's agenda, topics/ideas, recollection of the previous day, reflection on mental and emotional state.

Some days are more structured than others, and I don't try to conform too tightly to any particular structure. The goal is to get my brain outputting something, and later in my morning I'll transform or rewrite whatever I spit out. During very busy or demanding periods this also ends up functioning as my primary daily journal entry.
