Show HN: Forms are boring AF, so I built a conversational survey tool

Your immaturity in the HN comments and arrogant undertones on your website shows you have some growing up to do before trying to sell a shoddy LLM wrapper.

Why don't you put a "boring AF" survey out there asking people if they would rather fill out the boring form, or talk to an LLM? Your little ego here will be gone real quick once you see the results.

A couple problems with this:

1. Nobody likes AI support chatbots. Give me a human dammit. So you're off to a bad first impression with whoever's taking the survey.

2. I can fill out a survey way faster than I can talk to an AI chatbot. While I'm busy waiting for the AI to "think" I could be looking at the next question.

3. The first thing I do when I bother to take a survey is see how many questions it is. I'm happy to provide feedback for a service I use regularly, but I'm not letting you waste my time with a ten-page, hundred-question survey. If I can't see how big the survey is right off the bat, I won't bother at all.

then it’s not for you :)

If you're not willing to accept feedback, and just trying to advertise your paid product (which is all this looks like), then a Show HN is not appropriate. Flagged.

(Also, I think you're confused about your own product. Your users are not the survey-takers. But if it's not for them, then it's not for anyone, because anyone using this product will not reach those respondents, as you've just admitted. Hence my feedback, which you ignored.)

I hope flagging people online validates you in a way your wife never could.

neat idea. I signed up but I wanted to try it just once myself on my own phone for free. Wasn't gonna to pick a plan without being able to at least test it once.

good point, i’ll fix that
