> How are you guys making money? I see you have a single-person tier for $3 an hour? Even so, that's crazy.
Update: First of all, users are _not_ our product. Our only source of revenue is subscriptions to our service.
Each user has a dedicated Productivity Partner, and they connect with them in a 1-on-1 video call. 90% of the time, Productivity Partners do not interact with users; they just ensure the user is present and (optionally) monitor their screen to make sure they're not scrolling through Reddit. This allows each Productivity Partner to work with multiple users simultaneously.
By the way, screen sharing isn't as scary as it seems. We lower the resolution and bitrate on the user's side to such low levels that we're not able to read any text or even distinguish images. However, it's enough for us to see when the user is on Facebook, YouTube, Reddit, etc.
Edit: more context in quoted message. Edit #2: clarification that you're not our product
Screen sharing is optional - it's up to the user to decide whether they want to use it.
Not everyone works under NDA. Some of our users are medicine/law students, entrepreneurs, life coaches, history professors etc.
AI, automatic data gathering, big data processing - no thanks, we'll skip it. What we do works; we don't need to improve it - at least not with AI. We don't want our Productivity Partners to handle hundreds of users simultaneously, as this would result in losing the personal connection with the user.
