ilo is dead. Long live ilo

Twitter's new API tiers basically killed off my Twitter analytics product ilo.so and a lot more indie Twitter products.

Thankfully I found a solution to keep ilo online, reducing the tweet analytics features and moving forward with publishing, Spaces analytics and a follower database.

I also managed to arrange with Typefully, a competitor who can afford to pay the $42/k monthly API access (!), that ilo customers who want detailed tweet analytics can move their subscriptions over seamlessly. It's important that ilo's customers can continue accessing similar features that they signed up for and Typefully is the best option for that.

Here's the full email I sent to ilo's +8,000 sign ups: https://news.ilo.so/ilo-2-0/

    Glad you're still kickin'. It's a great tool.

    It is sad to see that you were forced to do this because of Twitter, but you handled it well.
    Love that you offer an easy way to migrate.
