Don't under estimate all the bad luck that happened to them as well. Your point is 100% valid all those startups look great on paper and fail. That also means startups that do NOT sound sound might be the next big thing.

Absolutely accurate, but I think to your point this is the same relationship between companies and employees.

As your product becomes more monopolistic, demand more from users, and you also become the company really smart people want to work at. Thus furthers your innovation which leads to more monopolistic products.

Side project I'm working on. Beta version with probably some bugs.

You upload a pdf You get a share link You get an analytics dashboard

Immediately which slides cause people to stop reading and which slides hold the most attention.

Looking for feedback johnny@tofugrowth.com

I was the biggest fan of Unroll me! Anything to get rid of junk from my inbox is a godsend. When I found about this data selling issue I was already getting "Unroll has stopped working" emails. After reading the article my motivation for reactivating was surprisingly quite low :(

At AirHelp we're not selling your data to any third party companies. We simply do not do this. We only use the data we find to do 2 things:

1. Find compensation for you if there are any. 2. Show some cool flight stats

Our business model revolves around helping people get compensation not selling user data to external companies.

Hi,

Johnny here, I work in product @airhelp.

We love Tripit! We love them so much we have a partnership with them: https://travelupdate.boardingarea.com/tripit-airhelp-partner...

And originally we had a Tripit integration. But we decided to remove it for launch because we ran into a few bugs (on our side).

That is a super cool hack with Zapier, thanks for sharing. I'm currently using Fantastical 2 (on of my fav products) with connection to Google Cal. Gmail already populates my calendar with the flight times but unfortunately not the travel time to the airport. Maybe I should add some kind of buffer for all my travel events.

Be happy is having something to look forward to. People always complicated this topic.

He got offended by the term "IT" when talking about engineers. In Europe and most of the world that's actually the proper term for an engineering department.
