The points on creating new accounts to try out a new tool you are making are exactly the reason why we opted to not make having an account mandatory. Users can make a JayPad by giving the JayPad and themselves a name (that's it) and see if our combination of text notes and Slack-like discussion adds value over a current setting with Slack + Strawpoll + Evernote or whatever they are using. Right now these are teams working on side-projects, or startups in the idea- to prototype-stage, local sports teams as well as political groups.

Thank you for your input on making this more into an Evernote plus X. We have this in mind and will be implementing new features and nuances in close loops with our users.
