Impressive team behind a product that could be competitive and a step ahead of a lot of the social networks on the commerce side.

Sanebox is great. It's cool that they've used that data to turn into a CRM. My concern would be as usual about privacy. Also, how do you plan to be different from other solutions (Cloze.com, LinkedIn Sales Navigator, Conspire, etc.)?

I think this kind of tech is going to be increasingly important, sitting in between places like Quora and your inbox.
Best of luck to the team!

Exciting to see the launch. On a separate not: Kudos to you that you were able to admit that an initial product wasn't working as well as you'd like, reinvent the company and recapitalize it. That's a big deal, congrats!
Curious: what did you learn from YesGraph 1.0 that you've implemented into the new recommendation engine? Also, how 'conservative' is your engine, ie How often...

VSCO has a great community and a very artistic feel.
Not very user-friendly (read easy) for the normal user, but for folks who are 'cool' and into the camera culture, it doesn't get better than this.

Love photography, and renting lenses is always a great look for people who want to try a lens, or need it for an occasion. The high Q lenses cost beaucoup bucks but make a huge difference.
Better layout than borrow lenses and comparable prices. A few UI bugs to fix, but overall seems like a good option + it has some cool new tech (like drones) you can't rent elsewhere.

If this works, this would be really awesome. Cards are perfect for mobile.
Curious to hear from team why they think they'll succeed in the browser market where others (eg Rockmelt) have failed spectacularly in the past.

This is the kind of thing that's very dangerous to post to the Product Hunt community, who's probably more susceptible than most to believe health claims. @rrhoover @eriktor @andreasklinger
1) There's limited scientific (if sketchy) evidence on the long term effectiveness in healthy people. There's a reason the disclaimer (which the founder repeats) says: "for research only" +...

This is great for ideas in a scrap book. Seems eventually destined to be an input editor for trello / keep / evernote / etc.
The public facing profile is interesting though.

Nice.
2 suggestions:
1) Feature to make notifications pop up after a certain time (eg Call Rhonda Back -- renotify in 1 hour)
2) Trello integration. Please (even if it's through a 1 touch email setting)

Canva is phenomenal for the first few pieces of content. It's missing a lot of functionality that would make it a standout tool however.

It is Yo for the wrist. Been using mine for 8 weeks and I love the simplicity. The 'haptic' part of it is really effective. Discreet for in meetings / idly thinking about someone special. Tons of use cases they haven't even begun to explore yet: Parent / Child, Team sports (eventually), runners (for support).
I love this product. Takes all the noise out and makes you focus on one thing...

I've seen this tech in real life. They've put a LOT of thought into the design and done tons of testing. Very cool stuff.

Nice idea, but eventually not just for phones.
Why do we think Jawbone hasn't integrated this into their wearables?

My take: people won't plan because there's just TOO much info. You need to propose a dynamic itinerary.
What you need is to make a proposed itinerary could based on 3-4 simple questions, eg:
"What kind of things do you like?" [Food, Art, Music, etc.]
Then you should auto-create specific things to do (card based)
"How fast do you travel?" [Pack it in <--> Leisurely pace]

I saw EyeNetra's tech at the MIT 100K a couple years ago. The stuff is sound and really fascinating for many more use cases than just visual acuity. Glad to see people are making progress here. @Nikkielizdemere the T&C and privacy policy is most likely just an oversight. I can contact the founders if you want.
