Show HN: Walkie-talkie for teams
This looks pretty cool. This is no small feat.<p>I&#x27;m not actually sure if the product _and_ company are named flowy, or if the company is flowy and the product is named talksik (from the screen recording). Your post here doesn&#x27;t clarify, but I will stick with flowy for this reply.<p>Though I think that you&#x27;ll have some difficulties in getting sales (who knows I might be totally incorrect). I say that for a couple of reasons:<p>1. I think with only 24 hours of history it is somewhat limited, let&#x27;s say I work in Boston, what about the Friday afternoon message that my Seattle colleague sends me as I&#x27;m finishing up, I&#x27;ll want to replay it on Monday morning but it won&#x27;t be there. A save for later function would be helpful.<p>2. Let&#x27;s imagine I am a potential investor, I ask you &quot;what does flowy have to offer if Slack implements a voice message feature?&quot; What is your answer? From your website I honestly don&#x27;t know, sure it&#x27;s not Slack, so there are no Slack channels with hundreds of people and that one person who hits @here, and at some companies Slack is like a social media network without the moderation or block button. But Slack offers a lot, a rich ecosystem of plugins &#x2F; bots for one.<p>3. Slack (and Teams et al.) offer a written history (leaving aside the caveat of the edit button for the moment), if I forget the specifics of what my colleague and I agreed on last week I can go back to Slack and read the message thread, if we use flowy that history is gone without transcribing the message.<p>One place that I can see this tool being somewhat useful is as a secondary mode of communication between a handful of engineers. Numerous times a week I consider uninstalling Slack from my work laptop, but that would leave my close colleagues high and dry. flowy _could_ be a useful tool in combatting that. Though given that a company is already paying for Slack &#x2F; Teams etc. they would rightfully be hesitant to purchase a subscription to flowy.<p>I am glad to see that you have screen-sharing included already because that is so integral to so many peoples workflows.
