Generating mass attention is not the same as generating mass product adoption. 99% people who have watched their viral content don’t even know what cluely does They are just generating attention for attentions sake instead of working on an actual sustainable funnel

“If you’re doing well, nobody is going to talk about how well you’re doing, but if you’re doing poorly, then everybody will only talk about how poorly you’re doing.” You can literally say the same thing in reverse. Everybody would be talking about you when start poorly and grow

This story repeats what happened with Clubhouse and BeReal. Loud entrance, weak follow-through. Cluely looks like another case of attention-first, product-later startup thinking. Launching with “cheat on everything” might drive clicks but not retention. The AI notetaker segment is commoditized, and margins are shrinking. Unless Cluely builds a unique moat. it will fade as fast as its initial hype.

“What I’ve learned is you should never share revenue numbers.” So you’re not considering an IPO?

Well looks like trustMRR is not for them @marc_louvion

It turns out that actually inventing something is a moat after all.

well his app is kinda useless. I don't understand how investors invested into something like that. My guess that his family got hussled by the CIA for his family to spy on chinese assets exchange for making him successful
