They should feel pretty great about this.

Google is making the market. Will Google eventually build a real product in this market? Possibly, but it is possible to compete with Google.

Do they have differentiator against Google? Maybe, I don't know the space, but it's probably a positive for them more than a negative.

If I was writing short term sci-fi, I'd have Starbucks, or some such chain with omnipresence, have bookable meeting rooms with technology like that, so that we can go and have quality meetings across the world at affordable prices.

I had the same thought--tonari seems to be doing fantastic work in this space. I hope this proves a market for them and accelerates interest.
