Shownotes Transcript

The hype about Tuple is real! Ben’s been busy adding a bunch of new customers. He’s selling and delivering the dream.

Derrick is back after mentally struggling in the midst of moving, which meant a week of zero productivity on Level. Now, he’s in a better place, mentally and literally.

Today’s Topics Include:

  • Ludicrous Mode: Full-resolution, uncompressed video stream option added to Tuple

  • Tuple’s lack of scaling challenges due to peer-to-peer connections

  • Tuple’s conversion rate for email list

  • Ben’s “I’m bad at sales” email message and demo video

  • Things to do and features to add in the future for Tuple

  • Tuple achieves semi-milestone of customer renewals

  • Ben’s fear of public availability to post Tuple’s pricing

  • Bandwidth forces AoP podcast back to one episode per week

  • Derrick ships fun and addictive emoji reactions feature in Level

  • Inviting more people to increase Level’s sample size and address skepticism
