New from the founders of Vine. RIP Vine. 🌱
This newsletter was brought to you byGetViktorNew from the founders of Vine. RIP Vine. 🌱
RIP Vine. Last week Twitter announced that the popular 6-second video app that loop indefinitely will be shutting down early next year. A sad day for the internet, but thankfully we have alternatives.
On the same day, the founders of Vine launched a new app! Hype is ridiculous, fun, and a totally new take on live video. Rus & Colin hit lightening in a bottle with Vine four years ago. Could Hype be the new thing that finally takes live video streaming mainstream? 🤔
P.S. Giphy built a tool that preserves all your Vines as GIFs in 1 click. 💕

We asked 34 customers what Viktor does for them. Not one said chatbot.
They kept using words like colleague, coworker, team member. One CEO called it the glue holding their e-commerce business together, which is a lot, but also… you see why. It lives in Slack and plugs into 3,000+ tools, so instead of jumping between tabs, you just ask for the thing. Pull Stripe against HubSpot, check Sentry alerts, spin up a campaign brief, build a landing page, send a report upstairs. It all happens there.
It has already hit top 5 on Product Hunt with 130 comments, is SOC 2 certified, and your data does not train models.One user said it was the first time AI felt like a real coworker, which is either exciting or slightly concerning depending on your week.
