@bryantchou Yaaay! And the website is made on webflow 👊🏼 A more detailed version is coming 👐🏼
@cyrilpaglino congrats on the new release and the round. Awesome team 😀
Downloaded it, will download it now. Looks really good. Lots has changed in the last 6 months, though, especially with the release of Houseparty. It's interesting that you both went in the same direction. Could you explain Augmented Messaging™ in a bit more detail and what makes it different? Also, as a side, is "Magic Words" not a terms coined by Peach? Congrats on the awesome funding round!
@rueter We have so much fun using Houseparty 🎊 They're working on live video, while we are working on asynchronous video messaging. Our mission with Tribe is to build a more meaningful, enabling and convenient execution of messaging compared to what users can do today with live video calling and text-based messaging. In this update, we added a new "Augmented" layer that enhances the quality of the messages by providing surrounding information and actions about what the user is saying and doing.
@ldesserrey I think it's a really strong product. I downloaded it the first time it was featured on PH and was really impressed with the simplicity. I appreciate the extra explanation. Good luck and congrats to you and your team!
The recognition system for the calendar is working well. But, is there an onboarding tutorial somewhere in the app to understand what other shortcuts are available? (Apparently: Amazon, Instagram etc.).
It is also cool to synchronize our Facebook friends with Tribe. Love this.
@lecoupa Not yet, we're planning to explain this features smootlhy soon. For now, its kind of an easter egg :)
The V1 was already great but the new one is so beautiful. The new features show the Tribe Team worked really hard to improve the experience. Congrats @cyrilpaglino @ldesserrey .
The UI and UX are 🔥. Also the User Onboarding is one of the best I tried. 👏
Now I just need to invite more friends on it to use Tribe more :)
@mrcalexandre @cyrilpaglino Thanks buddy! Have you tried to swipe left from the grid? There are some surprises here if you need to invite friends. 🎁
@ldesserrey @cyrilpaglino You're welcome , you deserved it. 👏 I swiped Left but didn't use the invite system. I will do that, Thanks for your help 👍
Looks promising. Will download it now ! Though, with the rising competition in messaging, what would be your unique feature or value prop that you think can sustain you and draw users to your app?
@hicham_amine Thanks ! Don't hesitate if you have questions while onboarding the App. Quick answer : Majority of Messaging apps are text-based, We are video-based. We managed to make video quicker to send than texting and as easy to open. We also build a more convenient alternative to live video-calling. Also, starting in Tribe 2.0, we started to augment the content in order to provide a more enabling messaging product, without asking the user to do anything. :)
@ajm5338 We just released the feature a few hours ago so we'll see! But as soon as it enables you to do cool stuff more easily, it's dope. 🤘🏼
I'm downloading this just in case it's as cool as it looks. @heytribe @cyrilpaglino @ryanmorris55 @ldesserrey
One of the best product teams on the planet. So excited for the world to see Tribe V2. Awesome job team!!!
Congrats on the round! How does confidentiality work regarding voice recognition in personal/private messages?
@stanmassueras Thanks Stan ! All the data is stored on our servers and everything is encrypted and anonymized on our end. Then we use machine learnings and APIs to fine meaningful data for our users. And we delete everything from our servers when the video is seen by the recipient(s).
This is one of those rare, really rare, "I didn't know I wanted it until I got it" features. Amazing.
@cyrilpaglino, @ldesserrey - congrats on the launch! The product is beautiful as always 👍
One question: Have you seen any issues with requiring sound/volume for this product? Not that sound is explicitly required, but I don’t get much value out of consuming/sharing on Tribe without audio on.
This strikes me as a potential problem, because the vast majority of smartphone usage takes place without sound. This is abundantly clear at Instagram/Facebook, where 80-90% of videos are watched without sound. I suspect that (for social reasons) this will continue until you can broadcast sound directly into your ear without:
a) disturbing the people around you (like speakers)
b) blocking out ambient sound (like headphones)
c) requiring an additional step/plug-in (like headphones)
I see this issue on other platforms as well. On SnapChat, what percentage of the time are you communicating via audio (talking, music, etc) vs via visual (photo/video, caption, geo-filters, face-filters, etc)? Anecdotally - I just went through my SnapChat stories, and 0 out of 39 of them required me to turn on audio. The value of the content was in the visual/caption. That’s better for me, because I’m in the office right now and didn’t want to turn on audio (headphones plugged into my laptop, not my phone).
Has this been an issue at all? What percentage of Tribe videos are watched with sound on vs. off? Have you considered adding more visual communication tools (text captions, geo-filters, etc)?
Curious to hear how you all think about this!
@telenardo I guess that if that feature works as advertised that would be part of the solution: https://youtu.be/E6N6MZJstZ0?t=1... ?
Augmented text messaging? I do not even have to read the description to be into this. The future is here folks!
Wow! 😱 downloading now 🤗 Is there a list of all the integrations? Would it do OpenTable for reservations?
Hmm. I remember the previous launch. Still not sure if it's just hype or not. The app looks innovative, but i'm not sure if it's enough to be self sustainable. Sequoia put their money in, which might mean you have some traction. Care to share numbers?
About the features, they look cool on paper (ergh.. video), but I don't really think I need them. This looks more like a millennials targeted messenger, but then pretty much gotta beat Snapchat, which would be hard to do. Who do you consider your main competitor? (please no 'we created something new so no competition')
Congratulations Tribe team, can you tell us about the security in the new app. Where does the language detection, speech to text & further processing of user data takes place. How do you keep it safe.
I know, I already said it on twitter but : What a great job! @cyrilpaglino, @ldesserrey & the rest of the team ;)
@rudyrosciglione @cyrilpaglino Man, you're an OG Tribe user 👊🏼 THANKS! Still using with the team?
I have been following these guys from the start and I am always impressed by their vision and the quality of their work. There is a lot of video messaging apps around but for me Tribe is not a gadget as many others. I use it everyday and can't wait to test the new speech recognition feature. Keep the good job!
@carlosdiaz thanks so much Carlos, we are excited about the new features on Tribe as well. The speech recognition feature is one that allows for many more possibilities with this platform.
Impossible to add my french phone number. Already registered if i remember correctly. "Technical issue"
@thomaskientz we're on this issue and it should be resolved very shortly.
The app is really better now!! Congrats to the whole team, functionalities are so cool, and the new logo is really awesome :)
@florianmari thanks so much Florian. @laurent deserves the credit for the logo and we will continue to improve the product as much as possible.
WOW i guess, it will see even better valuation that instagram...next big thing after snapchat, whatsapp and instagram...
