Thanks for checking it out. We don't have native localization but the UI text is user written, it can be written in any text. This might lead you to create different workflows for different languages but can be used as a work around.
Thanks for the feedback. Zorp is use case agnostic. You can build simple forms to really complex supply chain applications. We've taken a modular approach, where you get all the lego blocks and build them according to your specific use case.
Some of our customers use Zorp for really long tail use cases like dog walking, yoga training, KYC document collection, etc.
Backing not just 1 but 2 investments of Neumann seems strange. Having said that, there must be some due diligence or arbitrage identified. I wouldn't write this one off.
How do you think copyrights around these images will evolve? No copyrights? Full ownership to the one creating the prompt? Copyrights based on specific context?
This argument holds true for most VC firms in general. My contention is that YC's stance on defining the "bar for acceptance" seems to be on how much cash they have. So a mediocre company and founders could have got in the previous batch and a deserving one may not this year. I agree that this is fair and square in market economics. I simply expected more from this institution.
This is a fantastic read. But don't agree with the conclusion. It's myopic.
Few problems I have with this,
- The cost saving of 600K/truck/year is low relative to the cost saving with lower autonomy. When improving efficiency in any operations system, the ROI keeps getting lower and lower with further improvements. Does not mean that the investment is not worth doing
- The efficiency principle of software relies on scale. There's no reason to build autonomous vehicles at all if you own a single truck but this makes sense when you have a large fleet. That's why software earns with scale. 600K/yr is a single truck saving. It becomes significant over the scale of trucks and the years.
The unit economics is wonderful to go through. Appreciate the research!
