A lot of these companies are not trying to exist long term.

They are trying to be sexy enough to be bought in the near future.

Using a bunch of tools like these make them part of the pack.

The investors and founders of all these tools now know about this company and know that they are "in".

So it is more of a peacocking manoeuvre than an actual genuine need.

This is why a lot of startups are not really helping make the world a better place.

This company's product for example is also targetted towards other startups.

It's all a big house of cards at this point.




It's familiar scheme. It will do just fine when the mass couldn't resist hype, they will buy to help these early network stop burning cash. Fake it until you make it, while faking it needs a gigantic collective hype.
