I’ve been using #5 for a few weeks now (Limitless.ai pendant, clips to clothes, records and transcribes everything all day)

It sounds cool, and the idea of asking questions about your day seems like it would be cool, but a few weeks later I’m finding myself forgetting to take it with me. The value just isn’t there yet. (And why have a clip on microphone when everyone already has a microphone in our pocket?)

It’s a cool toy though. Also a creepy toy since it can double as an eavesdropping device.

I have a feeling these AI companies will fall back to selling our data for advertising purposes once these companies realize their core products aren’t valuable enough for consumers to want to pay for the cost of it.



(Co-founder & CEO of Limitless) Thanks for trying it and I hope to win you back with the new features we have in the works!

As for selling data if consumers don’t want to pay for it: I commit publicly to never doing this. I will shutdown the company and return remaining capital to investors if consumers don’t want to pay for what we are building. So far, so good, and we were actually cash flow positive a few of the last few weeks.


Congrats!

I actually like your Limitless meeting transcription tool and have a subscription for that reason.

I wish your focus was on the software but rather than the hardware.

#1 request is simply the ability to export my data so that I can more easily load it into other tools to ask questions against.

You have a treasure trove of all of my meeting transcripts for the past year but I’m really nervous they will be lost forever at some point.


How does that work socially, is everyone just fine with their conversations with you being recorded? or do you just not mention it.


That’s one of the reasons I don’t clip it on and take it with me. I don’t quite feel like justifying or explaining it to everyone.
