I really like the landing page. Mostly I watch these intro screencasts prepared to wince and jump forward, but yours is quick to the point and non-annoying.

The product seems minimal in a nice way, but I'm very curious about the direction it could go. Like, having discussions somehow based on the calculated groups.

Based on my own "bored at the bus stop" type experiences, I'm guessing mobile users can tend to get pretty seriously involved with series of yes/no questions with some social component, and yes, I'm thinking about Tinder.



Thanks mbrock, we were just yesterday considering adding ukulele and glockenspiel to the video to make it completely inaudible.

Yes - you are looking at it the same way as we are. We've built a core that could be outfitted in a number of different ways to fit a variety of circumstances. Many of the features early users wanted were appropriate for users across verticals, and we built those first. Now we're onto things like making it 'one click' for professors who use course software, etc. There is no end in sight for that stuff, so user growth will at least in some part determine how much we invest in each vertical over the next couple months. cc Steve Blank
