Why create ClarityText?

I decided to work on this project after going through the experience of building a career as an Appian app developer, and later seeing how developer tool products try to build communities on Discord.

I see latent demand in how businesses are hacking Discord and LinkedIn in an effort to make B2B sales. Both approaches come with difficult tradeoffs. Discord’s anonymous user accounts encourage low-effort questions, and few actual professional relationships are formed between community members. The LinkedIn newsfeed is fundamentally about increasing the broadcasting reach for a narrow topic, and not about forming relationships.

The project fits my skillset. Most of my career is about building CRM and customer servicing apps. I have experience with the marketing efforts of each part of an enterprise software ecosystem: product, customers, end users, and service partners.
