I personally don't think that's the case. Google may be the next microsoft, but I think it's penetrated the B2B/enterprise market enough that it's not going anywhere for a while.

They still need to figure out a flagship product for young people.

Hey HN - Wanted to share what I've been working on.

It's a product called dscout Sprint - which is geared to help design teams get quick feedback outside their walls and hear from real users.

The key differentiator in Sprint is that each video response is really short. The truth is that in-person feedback is most often the most useful, but it's hard to scale. Video feedback is hard to use because you have to 1) watch it, and 2) edit it for anyone to view.

Videos on Sprint are short, which enables you to simply share a clip, and facilitate design conversations to help your team move forward.

Would love to get some feedback on the product I'm working on. We get users to record video reviews that reflect on using a product for the first time.

Effectively, we try to learn whether a product lives up to user expectations. I'd love to learn what works/doesn't work about this product, and what questions you may have!

try dscout.com - refreshing take on user research.

Too often I see startups who fail to realize their potential because...

Product owners forget the importance of the First-Time User Experience (THE FUX). Products must deliver immediate value to new users; the FUX is the key to activating, then retaining users. A FUX that disappoints (not the same as onboarding) can halt your product in its tracks, whereas a FUX that exceeds expectations can accelerate your product's growth.

I'm building a tool with dscout that delivers videos of people discussing whether the FUX lives up to expectations, where each new user rates your product before using it, then after using it. These two ratings enable you to compare user expectations of your product to their actual experience, and the videos tell you why.

I'd love some feedback on this new product and our approach to measuring expectations!
