Show HN: Chorus - It tells you what your customers think and feel

I did an eye roll after I saw the title.

Mentioning that you were rejected comes off as an intention to "prove PG wrong". You should build a great app to do yourself and your customers justice, not to one-up somebody.

The pitch needs to be simpler, I gave your video a chance but you showed me how to enter fields on a sign up form. Didn't finish the video so can't comment on the product.

I find it particularly awesome that these guys continued to build their product even after they were rejected. Gratz to them. It's by no mean a "prove PG wrong" but a "We've been rejected, so what? Here's my app, check it out!"

Good point. We edited the title to something less likely to be construed as proving PG wrong.

Thank you for taking my criticism as constructive. I don't mind the downvotes as its great to see feedback being handled positively!

All the best to you and fwiw as someone else mentioned, I specifically clicked on this post because i was in "i need a distraction" mode. So I did give your video a shot, but it's hard to listen to 5 minutes of talk.

Just from my perspective I'd like the core of the message to hit me in the face in the first 30 seconds. Then you can drill down into the specifics as time goes on. If you research how newspaper articles are written they use the same concept. They give you the core of the story in the first paragraph. Then as you read more the details and nuances of the article are better articulated.
