The Exchanges

Every argument clarity score on this site is built from rows on this page. Each question and answer was assessed with names hidden, the host's own answers included, on four things from 1 to 5: directness (does it answer the question asked), coherence (do the ideas follow), precision (concrete details and clear references), compression (says a lot per word). The weighted mix (30/30/25/15) is the exchange score. A person's published score averages their exchange scores on raw tape only, at least 8 of them, shrunk toward the cohort mean. Full method →

Mada Seghete no published score: no usable exchanges on raw tape, and a fair score needs 8+ record → ← everyone

Every exchange below was scored with names hidden, four dimensions each from 1 to 5. An exchange's score is 0.30·directness + 0.30·coherence + 0.25·precision + 0.15·compression. The published score averages the raw tape exchange scores and shrinks small samples toward the cohort mean, so five great answers can't beat twenty good ones. Produced feed rows count only toward coarse estimates, never toward a full score.

Q Good. That was very well done. I think my audience clearly understands what the company does, and they all understand that they probably use it on their own phones. Help me understand how you have scaled this company. So from a pricing perspective, are you kind of a pure play SaaS model where you have upsells based off usage?

A We have a very interesting model that's a little bit different than what's out there. Our linking is free for everyone. So we believe that to build the internet and make mobile better, we need to have everyone use better linking. And give the users better experiences. So we have tons of people using our mobile links. We build enterprise solutions on top of the links, like the ability to show banners on your website and only show certain banners to specific people and take them to the app or the ability to deep link people from email or the ability to track all your paid advertising. All of those are like paid enterprise solutions on top of the free links. And then when it comes to our enterprise solutions, we price based on how many active users you have. So if you have under 10,000 monthly active users, it's actually, everything is free, but above that, we have a few tiers, and then, then we have, like, an enterprise tier for real customers.

Q What I want to do now is put this on a timeline and talk about how you guys have thought about product and developed it and how you as CMO have kind of taken it to market. So when did the company launch? What year? Okay, twenty-fourteen. And I mean, what were you doing at the time? Were you just graduating? How'd you meet your co-founders? What'd that look like?

A Oh, yeah, it's a funny story. We were in business school together, and we decided we wanted to start a company. And by, this was around graduation, maybe a month before graduation, but we had been working together for a year and a half, and had worked on three different projects, Fitbit for Dogs, photo book printing app, which actually gave us an idea branch. We were trying to grow our own app. We had a Really hard time understanding how our users got into the app, and we couldn't take them to the right photo book. And then we also tried a printing SDK that also didn't work. But most of that time, most of the year and a half, I think about like, 14 months out of that was actually spent on the app. And that's how the idea of a branch came.
