2 min read

In recent months, our work with Tellaprompt has been both enlightening and challenging. Early access feedback has given us crucial insights, while internal discussions have helped shape our vision and approach.

Lessons from Early Access:

  1. User Engagement Issues: We observed that Tellaprompt wasn't "sticky" enough. Many testers didn’t return for a second go, highlighting the need for more engaging features.

  2. Interaction with AI: Some users felt uneasy interacting directly with AI. This has pushed us to reconsider certain design elements and improve user comfort.

  3. Onboarding & Utility: We're refining the onboarding process, focusing on utility. The goal is to provide a tailored experience right from the start, directing users seamlessly through their journey.

  4. Feedback & Crowdsourcing: We're establishing mechanisms for prompt feedback and exploring the potential of crowdsourcing to enrich our content base.

  5. Personalizing User Experience: The prospect of offering customizable toolkits is on the horizon, empowering users to shape their Tellaprompt experience.

Additional Challenges & Reflections:

It's all so tiresome.

  1. Work-Life Struggles: Our deep commitment to Tellaprompt on top of maintaining the everyday "status quo" has led to burnout on a personal level. Acknowledging this, we are taking steps towards finding a balanced rhythm and will be setting aside time to re-center and recharge.

  2. Funding & Entrepreneurial Struggles: Our discussions have often circled back to the challenges of funding. Navigating the entrepreneurial journey has been as much about understanding the market as it's been about personal resilience.

  3. AI Education: We’ve identified a gap in easily accessible AI education and are considering producing content to bridge it.

  4. Consulting Opportunities: Given some of these challenges, we’re contemplating the addition of consulting to our portfolio. It could offer valuable insights into market needs and reveal additional opportunities for Tellaprompt.

In essence, our journey is one of continuous learning. As we adapt to feedback, face challenges head-on, and explore new avenues, our commitment to delivering something that people want remains unwavering.
