1. Problem
I have to switch and deal with bunch of devices and services to complete my tasks
devices app & cloud services can not work together to serve my need
No opensource, easy to use builder for IoT like Wordpress for blog
2. Solution
I can reach my personal assistant through multiple channels(ex: message, call) to complete a task or to do batch of tasks with simple order
User Community
share orders, recipes, and how to have a better digital life
Developer Community
Developer can extend orders, auto rules to customize for their need Maker can create adaptor to access his device
3. Unique Value Proposition
build a open platform to help user and maker build their personal assistant
I have multi-way to ask personal-assistant-bots to deal with my personal tasks and connected devices
I can extend, share & mashup orders through web technology
we do not make specific device but help device maker get their device connected
4. Unfair Advantage
connected is the key, Mozilla know the web, internet and security better than device makers
Mozilla user and localization Community
Open park instead of Wall Garden
Browser & Firefox Account
We already host user's password, auth token, history, and able to sync data between devices
5. Customer Segments
Early adaptor that want to improve their online productivity
ex: Previous Ubiquity web commandline extension user (1m+)
Device maker that need help to build their cloud and app
6. Key Metrics
download count/active user rate
contributor numbers/extension numbers
7. Channels
Browsers
instant messengers
Voice assistant
Connected Devices
8. Cost Structure
Phase 1: Human Resource (2~3 RD, 1~2UX)
Server cost (if we host the service)
Community Engagement Cost
9. Revenue Stream
partner with the default search, weather, finance options..
Let movie, comic, anime provider create their own chat character for marketing
partner with default widgets
advance service subscription fee
10. Brainstorming Space
We'd reuse the invention of nature language command and extensions to server side and provide similar assistant service for any Instant Messengers (telegram, skype, FB)
custom mutiple actions into simple order with context
The assistant service and the user interaction interface could be decoupled. At the end user can use any interface to interact with her tele-assitant
"the thousands of commands written for Ubiquity illustrate a latent desire to be able to write tiny amounts of code that enhance the web in fundamental ways"
augment your intelligence, not feed you what AI want you to see
text-based order (command) is flexible, able to extend to voice command when we have speach recognition engine
Give my portal a personality I like to interact with
Connected Devices, web services are my resources, I have multi-way to ask the assistant to deal with them
order-tag-suggestion searchbar prototype http://gasolin.github.io/moonbar/
I have to install different apps to control each task and each device
The order-tag-suggestion searchbar and chat-like stream in Browser's new tab page
though it said mobile keyboard is hard to type, people still love Messiging on mobile
What are devices and services
