🧠 I’m looking for a saas platform that would let customers access data based on subscription. Most platforms are focused on atomic elements vs all you can eat (like paid courses where you pay for each course), or around digital content vs data. What should I be looking at?.

Wild to see 70 million sign-ups on Threads in ~48 hours. Whether you're on it or not, a movement is happening and it's fascinating to follow. I'm at @invoker on threads if you wanna say hi. What are you liking about Threads so far?

I think the majority of consumers will get more value out of AI than they will out of putting goggles on. they’re gonna be great for gamers and some specific business use cases, but at this price point I don’t think it’s going to fly for mass audience for a long time.
