Hey! I'm one of the co-founders of Ozlo. Excited to finally to get to share him with you today. If you want early access, sign up here and we'll let you in:
What's the timeline for an android release? The examples all focus on food. Probably a good call for a focus (everyone eats), but is that the primary focus? ie is it a current limitation? Also agree with rohanpai, an api would interesting.
Android is on our list, but for not for a few months yet. Eventually Ozlo will be in a lot of different channels - including messengers, the web, and Android.
Ozlo can work over any topic area we let him learn about. We focused on food for the reason you said, but expect to open him up to many new topics soon!
Oh, whoops. I signed up but didn't realize it was only for iOS. That's unfortunate, I was interested in checking it out. I should have read more before clicking the link, that's on me.
So, I'm curious about this. Does a waitlist with a referral system help increase signups? I'm wondering how's it better than wait lists that don't push you up the line for referring people. Is it worth dedicating resources to build it out?
Referrals don't change your position in line. We are letting people in generally first come, first-served.
We use the VIP code because there are some times when you need to let someone in immediately (important partner, people that might be able to help us test a specific feature, etc.)
I think that in general incentivizing people to share by giving them a bump in line feels unfair.
