I have to be honest, I'm still not entirely clear what Frigade is. Everything seems to reference it being a set of React components....but I see there's an API involved and some sort of CMS? Plus there's features like a mobile checkout flow, which doesn't sound like onboarding?

imo there's a piece of the service explanation missing on your website, which probably lies somewhere between the intro video and the list of components on offer.

250$ for up to 2500MAU is a lot of money in my opinion for this kind of service.

If I compare it to marketing mail automation services which can kind of cover some of this use cases from a different and traditional angle, they are much much cheaper then that with smaller margins.

This is cool. Though I’m a little confused on who the ideal ideal target is. Is it focused on a non technical user or a technical user. Based on what stripe does, I think these are two separate product categories and combining them could result in a worse result for both user types. But I haven’t actually tried implementing this yet so I can’t speak too much on it. Looks cool!

I found the intro video pacing and music a little unpleasant. It's going a little fast too, slow down, I gotta absorb what's going on and how it's going to make my life easier!

What if you don’t use react? Seems like intercom’s ability to wrap elements on page with no code is a lot better for the non technical types

Why is this a company?
