CadenceIQ

So this is the first look at our gmail extension and what it would look like.

Here's what's happening:

1. User writes a few short topics/bullet points/ideas for an email
2. User clicks on the "lightning button" or uses the shortcut "cmd+j/ctrl+j"
3. Our AI then generates a high quality sales email from the given ideas and topics
4. If you want you can highlight a piece of text and rephrase that in a selected tone as well

A couple of points to note:

1. We're building on top of GPT3 as well as BERT
2. We are curating the dataset for training the AI very specifically. Most of the data is being processed in a way that makes the output really good.
3. I've chosen to deliberately not include a few features of the MVP in the showcase video. This feature is not really core to our central philosophy but I feel is important to bring out first.

Early access waitlist will be open soon

Updated our landing page https://cadenceiq.ai with elementor. I'm really not a fan of this but it will have to do for now.

I'm not going to be driving traffic here yet and CadenceIQ will be somewhat in stealth for a bit as well.

Although a product showcase video is coming up soon.

We've been working on the Gmail DOM a lot. As an extension we don't have a lot of leeway when it comes to libraries and frameworks. They don't play well.

To build true "assistant" we need an "in-context" experience for the user i.e we can't break the user workflow for them to use CadenceIQ. To accomplish this it's vital to figure out how to render right where the user is at that very moment.

After a couple of days we reverse engineered Grammarly's frontend.

This wasn't the hardest engineering task we've faced but it was certainly tricky.

Hey guys, for the last year I've been building my startup CadenceIQ almost exclusively alone with a few interns. It was buggy as hell and barely worked, but it was enough to secure a few pilots from a couple of larger accounts if we made it stable and more recently a very small SAFE note round.

As a non-technical founder I had very little impact on the tech side and we stayed in, for all intents and purposes, limbo for a good 4 months or so.

Thankfully I convinced a friend of mine, who I met on YC SUS, to join as the tech co-founder, and we started working this March. So I was able to officially take CadenceIQ out of prototyping since we're officially working on the Beta!

I scrapped together as much as could on almost no resources to have CadenceIQ stay alive and I'm beyond excited to bring my vision of the product to life. Targeting an April initial release and will be posting regular updates!

What the product is about - CadenceIQ is a true sales assistant, meaning it will live everywhere you work, similar to Grammarly. It's primary function will be to help you write better emails faster.

What makes us different to other email writing assistants?
1.For starters we natively exist inside the Gmail editor so you don't have to switch tabs
2.Entirely shortcut driven to provide a superhuman experience
3.Extremely thought out and curated dataset trained on high quality sales emails alone
4.Understands context of the whole conversation when creating responses, understands entities and even the people involved as well as the intent
5.It can identify topics and as well as classify the objections of prospects
6.You will always be in control and direct the output
7.Stealth features that will make your outreach workflow 100x easier
8.We are 1000% product and user focused. UX is the driving philosophy of our design and we're crafting it to be an enjoyable experience

More updates soon!
