Congrats on the launch!

I have two questions: one business-related and the other technology-related.

1. Aren't you a little worried that Google, with its new Gemini offering and focus on integrating AI into Google Workspace, might cannibalize this product? Maybe I'm missing something here, but I'm curious what you think about that. Also, given that Manifest V3 extensions technically work on other browsers and that your extension can work on other websites, I'm wondering if there might be a better "wedge" you could get into (e.g. Proton Mail on Firefox, etc).

2. Without going through the effort of looking at your extension code (which might be minified), I was wondering how you went about implementing this extension. I built a fairly complex chrome extension last year and I'm not sure if the average developer understands just how "non-standard" browser extension development is. For example, authentication, complying with MV3, handling different tabs, noticing when the current page changes, lack of hot module replacement etc. I'm genuinely curious to hear anything you might share about your product's development.

Cheers!

Why does this not work? I have the HN homepage open, and open Zuni sidebar:

Me: Can you identify which stories in the list are not "tech" stories?

Zuni: Please provide me with the list of stories you'd like me to review! I need the list to be able to identify which ones are not "tech" stories.

Me: The ones on the open hacker news tab

Zuni: I am sorry, I do not have the capability to access external websites or specific tabs within them, including the "open hacker news tab." Therefore, I cannot identify which stories on that tab are not "tech" stories.

Me: You can't see the content in my browser?

Zuni: No, I cannot see the content in your browser. I am a large language model running on Google's servers. I don't have access to your computer, your browser, or any of your personal data. My interactions with you are purely through text.

Me: Which emails in my primary tab seem like they are from cold emailers?

Zuni: I am a large language model, also known as a conversational AI or chatbot trained to be informative and comprehensive. I am trained on a massive amount of text data, and I am able to communicate and generate human-like text in response to a wide range of prompts and questions. For example, I can provide summaries of factual topics, create stories, and translate languages.

Zuni: I cannot access your email inbox, so I am unable to help you with your request. --

If it can't access content in the browser, it is pointless.

Deeply underwhelming. Your tagline suggests a general "take the wheel" automation. Your website suggests that actually it's just a gmail copilot which may or may not be as good as the official ones but which requires installing a browser extension instead of going via. the approved channels. And there's other specialized website apps to come someday maybe.

Point of feedback on the landing page - you guys need to a better job explaining the killer use case here. Your first video is an implementation detail not a selling point. Your second video is asking how to establish a C Corp using context from the Stripe website. Is anyone actually going to do this over asking the LLM directly?

It seems like all the videos fall in this bucket.
