Yup! Pretty much - the AI can steer you in directions that are somewhat new and might get you unstuck. In fact, some people have said told me that the creativity generation is the best part of Wordblot

Doesn't this de-incentivize founders since they're giving up their most valuable asset, their equity?

Good question. It hasn't empirically. See founders taking money off the table in secondary in series A, Airbnb etc.

Plus, financially derisked founders are paid a premium (those with previous exits) by VC.

So we know that this is mostly an academic argument, but it is a resasanoble concern.

Moreover, if 90-95% of your holdings are your company, you are still motivated to make it a success, despite the 5-10% diversification. And most great founders are motivated by more than pure financial upside.

Only 1-5% of founder's shares are contributed. 95% or more retained. It's insurance; not a plan B.

Story of my life - will give it a spin

Sure!!

Ha - great idea. Does it help with memory in any way?

When you detach a session, all the associated tabs are put away, so I guess it helps with memory by having fewer tabs.

Fascinating. 3 points: 1. Site loads a bit slow 2. Do I need to be an accredited investor? 3. How is value assessed?

1. Thanks, we are working on it 2. Yes 3. Based on the value of your stock, determined by fair market value and other assets you hold

Accreditation is easily achieved just by having raised money for your company. A founder who owns 20% and raised at a $5M cap/valuation meets the $1M asset threshold.

Interesting - I think thinking that it reasons isn't the right line of thinking.

Really great product. Looking forward to the updates!

Really excited to see this. My first “database” was MS ACCESS so it’s good to see the ability to use a spreadsheet as a DB

What you guys are doing with fan out is pretty great - definitely some similarities. Love your work.

What use cases are you imagining?

Handling of connections in either direction.

Our company built a service that is able to receive WebSocket connections and send the activity to a HTTP backend. So this use case I'm familiar with and it sounds like you're doing something similar.

A service that could make outbound WebSocket connections on behalf of a FaaS app is something I think about too. I'm not sure if that exists yet.

I have that case covered as well. When I post to your backend, whatever you respond with, I send back to the socket for you.
