Rewind looks cool - almost magical (I imagine part of the magic is due to the M1/M2 chips).

But I would be concerned overly relying on them. They've raised VC money, which means their future path is unclear. I don't know what direction their product will take if pushed by VC growth expectations. In particular, this is just a client-side only app with a pretty clear and finite feature set. But VC influence means there's a risk they will be shoehorning in features and online capabilities to promote growth.

While it’s true we raised money from VCs we did not give them a board seat or voting control. I have super-voting shares and am the only member of the board. We will never be pushed around by VCs.

Our vision is to give humans perfect memory and we will not let VCs get in the way.

Hey well I'm glad to see you in the replies to one of my comments! Love what you're doing, and I'm following updates.
