I can immediately see use for this product. As a former investment banker, the majority of your time is spent in powerpoint sending different documents back and forth between analyst, associate and VP. Track changes always worked fine in word for the majority of my purposes. I imagine there are a number of investment banks, both bulge bracket and otherwise that could benefit from this.

Definitely seconding a clear use-case for bankers, I've done basic versions of git repo doc sharing;

however the primary concern that I always have with any sort of version control programs is the fact that the documents must be completely internal and within our firewall, any sort of external hosting is usually not secure enough, and most solutions seem to lack easy implementation due to the speed of technology at large banks.

We will be offering self hosted deployments behind the firewall. All we need is a Git server and you're away. Would be good to chat more, I'm zefi@kivo.com

great to hear Chris, some of our very early users were at Investment Banks. Drop me your email on zefi@kivo.com, I'd love to get your advice on approaching the large ones.
