Comment on Ask HN: Review my startup, mobify.me

Comments

Shucks, I had pretty much exactly the same idea a year or two ago, but it stalled when I couldn't find anyone to pay me to develop it.

May I ask for details about the platform/architecture?

Also, the usage caps seem low to me, across the board. If I ran a site that I expect to get major mobile traffic, it might make me nervous to see that the top tier is only 10k hits/day (even if in reality I'd never come close to that)

You are not the only one. There are a few companies with very similar services, like MoFuse. Is there anything your company offers that can differentiate you from them? If not you might have a hard time gaining traction against VC funded players with a big head start.

MoFuse is an RSS feed converter. Mobify.Me supports proper URLs, search, forms, sessions, interaction - mobile is a lot more than RSS. There is a big gap in that niche, though RSS converters are definitely very common.
