Quick update: we now include news about the startups founded by your friends. It's a great way to support them by spreading news about them, and an opportunity to get in touch when something big happens e.g. funding round, etc.

Hi everyone, I'm Jean, a co-founder here at Wise. Thanks @rrhoover for the opportunity to be here! Would love to get feedback from the Product Hunt community. AMA :)

Interesting, love the simplicity. What made you build this, and what's the plan for it? Love the "east coast morning" idea.
Jean Friesewinkel
Thanks @dshan for the kind words, great question! We (w/ @ocolot) were working on a similar service — WiseRadar — more powerful but less simple to get started with. We realized we could make something a lot simpler and deliver a much better service by relying entirely on your AngelList profile. :) Our goal is to deliver content that is personally valuable to every single person on our service, every day, without any clutter/overload. The morning schedule idea is actually one of the things we kept from WiseRadar. Very habit-forming! :)

Cool. Who's the target audience?
Jean Friesewinkel
Mostly angels and investors who have a lot of portfolio companies, when Google Alerts don't scale well. As a founder I also use it to stay up to date with competitors ... and friends' companies :)
