Look We already raised seed investments. In our case investors do not invest money just in idea. When we will run IEO, we'll have MVP and first customers. So, investors won't invest just in idea
Investors need to offer favorable conditions, then you will not have problems with investments. We don't have problems with investments If you have enough money, why are you going to IEO? It seemed to me that projects that do not have their own funds go to the IEO. We have money to development. But a successful startup needs not only product development, but much more. For example, can you imagine how much is good marketing cost? How much is listing on the exchange cost? Crazy money is needed for this!

I wonder where did you find here the completely different direction?) Even if founders think that their project will eventually be able to replace Linkedin, maybe you haven't fully understood in this project? I think the guys know better who is their competitor. Linkedin is just a social network. albeit a professional but just a social network. AskBrains this platform is a place where a client and a customer can make a deal, where a startup will find an investor and so on. I understood correctly? AskBrains is not a place for idle chatter as in Linkedin. Askbrains is a closed social network. If the expert is interested in communicating with the user, he can add his account to his favorites. In this case, the user and the expert will be able to communicate, as in a normal social network. The user can subscribe to expert updates and read his feed. An expert can write his suggestions in the feed, invite users to meetings, etc. This is a social network. But the expert knows for sure that if he received a message, then from a person who is sure that this message will be of interest to this expert. The expert doesn't receive randomized mindless messages, mailing, as in the usual social. networks.

This is even good, because without competition there would be no progress. Now there is a demand for new social networks on the blockchain.
The dictatorship of the owners of social networks is already fed up with everything. Everyone wants something new and more open and free. Now is a good time to bring a new product to the market. Open and free??? Have you ever read the project description? I advise you to read at least some information before writing comments.

A little confusion on your example, it basically shows a case where an investor-potential whom a developer can't get in touch with, to convince him to invest, are now within reach as the developer ask something to the said investor-potential using your platform, thus gain his interest? And what would the question be, then? "Hi, can you review my proposal?"
You are right. The developer gets the opportunity to contact the investor, but no more. The developer should carefully approach the choice of the investor (read the description on his account, use the filter with AI). Smart developers usually know in advance who they need from investors (so they can do just a search by name). "Hi, can you review my proposal?" Yes, the question may be like this. But I would add it. We don't guarantee that the investor will be interested in the project. But he will write his opinion and this will help the developer to improve his project/idea. We just give the opportunity to contact. And what users will talk about and what results they will get is their business. We only control the quality of the answer (it can be negative). So they will have to pay to get an investor? Sounds a little counterproductive to me, especially as you also claimed yourself that the price won't be cheap. Plus, there's no guarantee that it will be the investor himself that read and give advise. I would imagine some of those expert investors run a lot of business and would probably have no time to read three to five emails asking them to read their proposal because of the payment (that's probably seems small for the investor, but big for a startup project). Afterall, that's why CEO and other businessman have PA. We give the opportunity to contact. And this is incredibly important for new startups. We personally faced this when we started our work. And yes! We were ready to pay, if only the right person read our letter! Because we were sure that our project could be really interesting! But we received only the standard answer. The price will determine what expart want to receive from his services. Smart people are able to estimate their time. If the expert realizes that 3-5 emails a day is too much, he can put a cosmic price and will receive one email per year. Moreover, the expert has a few days to reply. Only account owner (not their helpers) can reply to messages. I can assume that you are not a founder of a startup ... so you cannot fully understand the importance of our idea. But each day we receiving proposals from investors, which ready to buy our tokens. It suggests that we are doing right things. There will be no denying that having an investor interest is an important thing for startup, the question lies on whether those startups think it's a good idea to spend some of their limited fund to pay highly for something that's still uncertain. Uncertain not only in the sense if the investor will invest ot not, but also on who actually reads the proposal-disguised-in-question. Thus, my question on how could you be certain that the one read and reply will be the investor themselves instead of their PA. Sure, you can set a rule where only the account owner can reply to messages, but it's not necessarily means the original owner (the investor) give their PA access to their device where the account to your platform are logged into. Thus, ultimately, the PA are the ones replying First, everywhere there are people who work unfairly. We reduce it as much as possible. Secondly, we specially create such conditions so that the experts would like to take part on our platform personally. That makes sense. Thirdly, if you are so worried about this, order a VIDEO CALL! I hope your issue is resolved. This is nothing to talk about. A large number of people believe that our project has the right to life and invest large sums of money in us. We can't please everyone. I told you everything that could be said about our project. If you do not understand the essence and importance of our idea, then this project is not for you.

For me, linkedin is generally a separate social network and our project cannot compete with it, since it is completely fresh in the market.
I have already said that it will take time (maybe several years). It is foolish to discuss now whether we can compete or not. It depends on so many factors. Time will tell. And we will try.

You must use Google form for the report (read the rules). Or stacks will not be earned.
And this concerns all participants!

Of course Linkedin is a very serious competitor. Maybe people will understand that we have more advantages in a few years.
I think that it is not necessary to fight AskBrains as a competitor. need to offer a product that will be different and have their own advantages. Do not be afraid of competition from Linkedin. They, too, were once a small startup. All companies go through ups and downs. Someday Linkedin will disappear from the market. Does anyone MySpace remember anyone now? ))) Thank! We are not afraid. Everything is born and everything dies. Linkedin - not the most perfect platform. It has many problems and shortcomings. And this means that sooner or later a more perfect project will force Linkedin out of the market. Perhaps this will be our project. But we sensibly evaluate our strength and understand that a lot of work awaits us.

We have only 2 competitors and they have a list of problems that we can solve.
But we are going to challenge Linkedin in the future.
It sounds very optimistic. I like your morale! Linkedin is a very serious competitor. This is one of the most popular social networks in the world. Of course Linkedin is a very serious competitor. Maybe people will understand that we have more advantages in a few years.

Can you give me some real world examples where you see the usability of this platform to work as intended? Because i am struggling to understand that in what case it would be harder for an individual or a team to consult an expert for a money outside of this platform.
And why would these experts accept tokens for their services instead of money or more known cryptos like btc?
Experts are investors, advisors, mentors and just professionals in their field. If you need one particular investor, who will replace him?? I already wrote about it earlier (I will copy here). "Most of the questions will be asked just to get an expert opinion. For example, I am a founder of the company. And I am sure that my project will be of interest to the investor Mr. X. But he doesn't respond to my messages. And this is obvious, if I found his contacts, then hundreds of others found and wrote. Therefore, I go to the AskBrains platform, pay and send a message. But now I know for sure that he will see my message and write his opinion about my project." There are people with whom it is almost impossible to contact in real life.Experts don't receive tokens, they receive money that can be transfered on a card or converted to Bitcoin. Moreover, the payment will most often be symbolic, so that users take the choice of an expert seriously. The expert will be able to send money to charity in 1 click (our experts are certainly wealthy people). If you really want to understand how our platform will be used, please read this introductory article. https://medium.com/ask-brains/introductory-article-about-askbrains-social-network-bf579be6391cA little confusion on your example, it basically shows a case where an investor-potential whom a developer can't get in touch with, to convince him to invest, are now within reach as the developer ask something to the said investor-potential using your platform, thus gain his interest?

Experts will receive for their services the tokens of the AskBrains project, which they will later be able to exchange for the usual BTC or ETH. I don't think this will be a problem. If you can make such an exchange, then there is no problem at all. It is good that the team will allow such exchanges. How many times do I have to say that you understand that experts don't receive tokens?! Experts earn money that can be transferred to a bank card or converted to Bitcoin. I wrote this already 2 times!

I agree, since there are a lot of projects and competitors in the market, and most of all people are afraid to get on board.
We have only 2 competitors and they have a list of problems that we can solve. But we are going to challenge Linkedin in the future.

I have replied 1 message earlier Experts don't receive tokens, they receive money that can be transfered on a card or converted to Bitcoin. Can I register to the Judges Committee? I want to be a judge. What will be the reward?
Most likely it is not so easy, because the judges will be stringent requirements and competitive selection. We do not need super experts in the Judges Committee.
Most of the questions will be asked just to get an expert opinion.For example, I am a founder of the company. And I am sure that my project will be of interest to the investor Mr. X. But he doesn't respond to my messages. And this is obvious, if I found his contacts, then hundreds of others found and wrote. Therefore, I go to the AskBrains platform, pay and send a message. But now I know for sure that he will see my message and write his opinion about my project. Even ordinary people in the Judges Committee will understand whether this investor has even bottom the essence of the project or hasn't even read the description. This is not freelancing. There are no tasks as such. The Judges Committee checks whether the expert has bottom of the issue and nothing more.

Correctly do that each new person in the project will be responsible for their actions.
I also think so, if you impose some responsibility on users, you can partially eliminate the quitters and liars. Right. And also if you would like to join our Judjes Committee, requirements will be disclosured later

Can users choose from expert profiles and how are the "experts" audited? How do you plan to weed out all the scammers and hustlers pretending to be experts?
You're right. I think it really will not be easy to do. Subsequently, it may even become a problem if the team does not find an effective solution. You can simply attract experienced people to the team and solve this problem if they do not succeed. We do not need super experts in the Judges Committee. Most of the questions will be asked just to get an expert opinion.
For example, I am a founder of the company. And I am sure that my project will be of interest to the investor Mr. X. But he doesn't respond to my messages.

I have repeatedly answered, users can search for an expert by name or use a filter. Only the user makes the final decision who to contact from the experts.
Each expert will pass an KYC procedure. First of all, we will invite famous people (investors, advisors, mentors, professionals) with whom it is very difficult to communicate in everyday life.
THIS IS NOT A REGULAR FREELANCE!
So you yourselves are vouching for the legitimacy of these experts? Can anyone join to be an expert or will you just hand pick them? We can't vouching for the legitimacy of these experts. We just invite famous personalities that people most want to contact. How these famous people will respond from the height of their greatness, we do not know. And we cannot guarantee that everyone will take their responsibilities seriously. But no one will pay them just for the name. If they do not perform the service qualitatively (they write a standard answer, without delving into the essence), the user can contact the Judges Committee. Other experts can also register. They also pass the KYC procedure. If you don't know anything about them - look for information in Google and LinkedIn. If there is no information - then think for yourself, contact or not. Our main goal is to give people the opportunity to connect with popular people! Whose opinion is expensive! We don't build new freelance, but we can't select experts only manually. Maybe we will miss someone. Therefore, experts can register themselves.
