Ask HN: Review My Startup: Vibe, a Team Morale Meter for Slack

Hello, I'm part of a small team in Tokyo, building HR-Tech products powered by machine learning.

For the past 6 months we've been working on a product called Vibe, which is a Morale Meter for teams using slack: https://vibe.work

It would be great to hear your thoughts and feedback about the product. In particular, if you manage people, do you think this could help your decision making?

The landing page seems a bit long. Users probably don't care about your team. They probably care about your pricing more. Put it at the top. Because the call to action is whipping out a credit card. Then worry about justifying it. Get to 'No' quick. A/B test on pricing will be easier if it's at the top. Putting it at the top casts the light on whatever dubious business case has been made for a free plan. Anchoring the value to zero dollars seems like something that needs significant research to justify.

The pitch seems a bit at odds with bottom up marketing: the bulk of Slack users probably aren't highly enthusiastic about sentiment monitoring and analytics as a feature.

Overall, the design seems more than a bit tuned toward selling investors at the expense of selling a useful product. Fundraising is a means to an end.

Good luck.
