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 →

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 Can you, can you lend out? I mean, I'm looking at this beautiful thing. I don't, it almost looks like futuristic three D goggles, but it's, it's, it's not, you don't wear on your face. You put it on the wall and it projects out. Can you lease these out or, or you want to keep selling them? Your customers actually own them.

A Uh, it's a, it's a question of the time in the beginning, obviously the first movers and the people that want to be sexy and, you know, own this, their threshold to actually getting this and having it in their room is really, really high. Obviously this is what we now want to first take care of, but then obviously we're going to reach to a point where we then have to get into real scale. And then these things, it's like you only rent it will be highly attractive for people that are not as sold as they are right now. So I think it's probably going to be one, two years until we go into models like these, but it's definitely on the list.

Q you own the others call it 55%. Great model. Love that. Okay. Um, talk to me about, talk to me about the hardware side of things. If you could figure out a way to subsidize the hardware and give it away for free, all of a sudden you like really jack up your ability to drive MRR. Have you considered like raising a debt fund or something to facilitate this?

A Um, yeah, very smart, smart idea. And this is what we're also working on right now. The pain points to our growth are a little bit different. So it's not exactly, it's first of all, we're only working with inbound. So we're structuring a couple of things to optimize that and fully get up to capacity, but we're already preparing to raise some money for our own financing model. So we work with leasing partners and financing partners, but you know how it is, especially like globally, it's very complicated deal sometimes. So it's very hard to find somebody who does a licensing, a financing deal in Dubai. And then obviously the one making the most money out of it a lot of times is the bank. Um, so we're already experimenting with giving out systems only for subscriptions. So you don't pay, let's say the seven grand that you need for a multi ball, which is a small system for school. And instead of saying paying seven, uh, seven grand and 59 bucks per month for the software, we just tell you, listen, you're going to be paying 299 and you just pay for that forever. So we're experimenting with it. At this point, I think we're not going to take it to the crazy scale, because just with the fact that the hardware is so expensive, it would be insane. Like we will need to raise like 25 mil to really scale with that. Um, and in the end, we're not trying to be a bank. So we tried to find partn…
