Good concept and congrats on the launch. My feedback is I don't see why I would move my conversations( and convincing all my friends) from existing apps like iMessage, Discord, Slack etc to new app just coz of a calendar feature. Who is the target customer for this service?
Discord, Slack and iMessage have many apps that can be used to schedule events. I think it would make more sense if this a SaaS offering where I could use this in other platforms as an app or a bot.
Thank you! We totally agree, behaviour change is hard: no doubt our public beta feature set will appeal best to our core fans but the hooks will get more and more compelling to mainstream consumers as we develop the product.
It's not so much about moving all your conversations to Onin though: it's about using us as your personal and social calendar. We support showing/editing your existing calendar events in-app too so there's zero switching cost to trying us.
With this in mind, we've found this feature set to be very compelling with our non-technical friends and family who are on the private beta.
