• How to Hire a Pop Star for Your Private Party

  It was Magic, they did YC W15! They still exist; they've just pivoted a bit into virtual assistants. They mostly were for normal stuff early on, although Justin Kahn (who invested in them) used to do some weird stuff using Magic: https://justinkan.com/feed/fun-with-magic They're still around: https://getmagic.com/. - Source: Hacker News / 11 months ago

• Show HN: Jarvis AI – your dedicated concierge for anything

  Magic (https://getmagic.com/) launched as an SMS assistant like this. It was pretty cool at the time but I recall they couldn't figure out the unit economics for personal assistants. Maybe Jarvis can! - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

• I started affiliate marketing, but with a twist

  Use chatbots to automate customer service: Chatbots use natural language processing to communicate with customers and answer their questions. By integrating chatbots into your affiliate marketing strategy, you can automate customer service and increase engagement with potential customers. This can lead to more sales and higher commissions.

• How to embed a web application into another website via API?

  I am trying to create an application that will work on a customer's website. Much like tawk.to or intercom.com. Source: almost 2 years ago

• Here's how I'd figure out the go-to-market for a Customer Support SaaS

  My way of doing marketing starts with figuring out what my overall project will (or will not) be. In this case, I looked at the vendors like Zendesk, Intercom, Freshdesk, or Help Scout. They all have whizbang features such as live-chat, collaboration stuffs, automations and workflows. They bill per contact and addons. I’d emphasize a straightforward, fuss-free angle instead.

• Chat widget with react.js

  I wanted to know the best practices of developing a widget. So I went through the popular implementations of it. I liked Intercom's widget very much. It is written in React. I analyzed how it works. The minimal javascript is loaded async on the webpage. It is injecting an iframe with id intercom-frame. That iframe has a script in it's head with a source URl. Obviously it is React bundle. Source: about 2 years ago

• What PRODUCT TOUR software do you like for an early SaaS?

  If you're looking at it to guide new users through onboarding, Intercom is pretty good. Source: about 2 years ago
