Visually nice and well developed homepage and product
From 3 comments
Visually it looks nice, good luck with the product.
pjmlp on HNYeah I thought the same thing. This one does have a better homepage though, so props to the design team/FE engineers/marketing team for that.
chadlavi on HNIs there a target set of customers for this product? It seems well developed (minus the bugs folks are reporting), but I'm not entirely sure why I would use this instead of a…

Good concept for event storming and mapping

I love it! I could see myself using it to document event storming sessions, impact maps, Wardley maps, etc. That said, I found it a little buggy at the moment. A couple of bugs I…

Looks like a clone of Miro/RealtimeBoard
From 3 comments
Looks like a Miro (former realtime board) clone to me. What is the differentiator?
splittingTimes on HNThe home page style and screenshots look extremely similar to previous versions of RealtimeBoard/Miro. To the point that I thought it was a product from the same company. Make…

Unclear what the product is and who it is for
From 3 comments
No screenshots on the main page. The embedded video isn't clickable on mobile (iOS Safari). Fluffy marketing speak throughout the page. What is this exactly?
dmitriid on HNI read the page top to bottom. I don't know what it is. Is it an online OneNote? I don't know what the things you build with it are for.
lallysingh on HNHello Tyherox. I'll be taking into account some of your responses to other members. A. So, home page: Anything, Anyone, Everyone. You feed everyone, you nourish no one. You have…

Pricing too high and free tier too limited
From 1 comment

There's something wrong with drawing..It's drawing above my cursor.
foobaw on HNmy $0.02: I would make the section "A Flexible Workspace for Everyone" the 1st main section, didn't really get what the product was until the 2nd and 3rd sections (the first one…

Zapier integration and API
From 2 comments
Zapier integration is definitely on our to-do list!
tyherox on HNI like it and may use it. Needs an API and Zapier integration.

Questions
How is it better than OneNote or Google Sheets
From 3 comments
How is this better/cheaper than OneNote? Serious question.
GiorgioG on HNI right now use Google sheets for the same usecase, what advantages does this have over a spreadsheet?
ManDeJan on HNLooks like OneNote.

From 2 comments
Are there any similar open source projects that are offline? I had difficulty finding the right keywords to search this.
mrnotcrazy on HNIs there anything similar to this but offline and open source?
