@akilian @claralabs who is your target customer that's willing to pay $99/mo+?
..
I would be more inclined to pay 99 bucks a year for unlimited meetings rather than 99 bucks a month for 20 meetings.

@tombielecki @akilian @claralabs Probably anyone who can't afford paying thousands of dollars/month for a personal assistant.

Oustanding product. Switched to Clara after my experience with x.ai which caused some of my contacts to get mad for calls scheduled at 2 am and other mishaps. Probably due to the human/AI hybrid (vs full AI of x.ai), Clara never seems to fail, always responsive and handles people's schedules like I could never do!

@christinahahaha @tombielecki @akilian @claralabs this is not really the point since by paying thousands of dollars for a personal assistant you'll get more than just meetings. I don't think Clara will be able to make you a coffee or open the door when some customers are arriving. I will definitely pay $99 a year for a just-meetings assistant.

Hi @marannelson and @akilian. Clara looks amazing but I doubt the product market fit you are looking for is there with this pricing model. Or, you need to be a bigger drug deal - give people a 3 month trial and once it is engrained into their ritual the price becomes irrelevant. For me 2 weeks is not long enough... sometimes my meetings happen 2 weeks out so then it becomes a hostage situation instead of an addiction. Just food for thought. Otherwise on it's own the @claralabs product looks amazing.

@marannelson @akilian @claralabs Also a direct tie-in to an online meeting facility would be amazing - join.me, zoom, pluot, gotomeeting, whatever.
Michael Akilian
@tomfrazier @marannelson @claralabs Thanks for the feedback Tom! We support any such meeting facility as long as you can tell Clara a static link for meetings.

Great product, but I think your price-point is way off. I'd definitely look at this for $100 a year.

Are there any plans to offer the professional service on a per meeting level (somewhere around $1-5 per meeting)?

@theleovogel Thanks for asking! Really good question. We've really wanted Clara to be a service that "just works" without your having to think about it. Our concern has been that the pain of deciding every time - "to CC Clara or not to CC" - takes away from some of the magic of really being able to hand everything over to us. We have gotten folks asking about volume based pricing, however, and could re-consider it. Do you have further thoughts here? Would love to hear them! Maran@claralabs.com

I think I know exactly how to use this. @marannelson & @akilian: Do you have packages for orgs so that my entire company can use the service?
Michael Akilian
@nassaraf @marannelson Definitely, feel free to reach out to discuss (michael@claralabs.com) once you sign up for a two week trial!

I must say, the video was impressive! It's like...magic! Kudos to y'all!

This is awesome. I actually don't think the price is that crazy. The price matches the market target of the product: people heavy on meetings without the access to capital to hire a full-time PA or contract one. I just have a few small suggestions about the website and the marketing materials. The call to action in the homepage, where you ask for users' work email address, is very clear and spot on, but the pricing page lacks that. When I go to the pricing page, I can see the tiers, but there's no clear call to action. I can't directly purchase one of the plans, which probably means you're missing out on users who don't need a trial, they just want to purchase it straight away. For your market target, this is probably a reasonable chunk of users. But let's say you do want users to go through the trial first; in the pricing page there's no Start Trial button, just a "Already on a trial? Sign in to subscribe" that is hard to see and is a bit cryptic. I think some people have mentioned a video, but I can't find it. Looking forward to try it out!

@antonio_bustamante I also have a problem with that price point. if you're that heavy on meetings, you should be able to afford an assistant...

This is really cool!
