🚀 I've launched my first MVP (100% bootstrapped)

💻 TRY THE DEMO

In the middle of the pandemic 😷, I realized maintaining fluent conversations with my team was very hard. Our Slack chat was full of memes and unimportant messages, mixed with the relevant ones. The email was slow and inefficient. And come on, don't bother me in the middle of my Pomodoro sprint to make a daily meeting that could have been an email! 😪

That's why I decided to create ⚡ Velox. In this platform, you can have organized, clean, and efficient discussions with your team, easily separated in conversations. You can embed polls and widgets to make people answer faster. And many more features! 🔥

So, what do you guys think? Is it useful? Do you face the same problem as me?

If you are interested, I'll keep you updated!

    Sounds great, market it, sell it, charge for it.

    1. 1

      Thanks for your comment! The business model idea is to charge for creating custom domains for teams at a reasonable price (I guess it should be cheaper than Google Workspace)

    I tried creating an account. Didn't go through..

      Oh, I actually didn't keep maintaining this, sadly we never found a good product-market fit. But if you like the idea, I'm happy to keep you posted!

    Looks cool, but there's a lot of competition. For example, what about messaging clients like Amazon/AWS Chime?

    1. 1

      I'm not familiar with Chime, but as far as I've seen it's a videocall app, right? Velox is a messaging platform, formal and organized as an email, but instant like WhatsApp.

      1. 2

        I see, I don't really use messaging apps, but now I understand your product better. It sounds really useful.

        Yes, Chime is video and messaging. For example, I can send a text message directly to a contact even if I am using the Chime client. Chime has some cool features like webhooks as well as a new SDK. I guess I would start there, but that's only because I am already in the AWS ecosystem.

        Good luck!
