I have tried Silbo Money, mobile payments without leaving WhatsApp. It’s like bringing cash to the mobile, for good and for the bad

by

A few weeks ago we talked about Money whistlethe Sevillian startup that integrates mobile payments in WhatsApp. Its approach is brilliant in its simplicity: instead of competing as another app, it is integrated into “the application we already use” par excellence to become our digital portfolio. The system operates inside WhatsAppwith minimal derivations to the browser. We add to our contacts and chat with a purely functional Bot. No canned responses or frustrating loops, only direct and functional interactions. The record is automatic and direct: we validate identity, we create a four -digit pin, and voila. This pin is requested when initiating a conversation or after a while of inactivity, balancing security and convenience. The registration process. The creation of the PIN is one of the processes for which Silbo sends us to the browser. Its main difference with Bizum It is structural: It works as an independent digital purse. While Bizum operates directly with our bank account, Silbo requires loading previous balance. It is moving the cash to the mobile. The loading process. This separation has two readings: An inconvenience: Add friction against Bizum. An advantage: Provides extra security when isolation from our account. The interface is pure pragmatism. It allows navigation for text commands and contextual buttons. The buttons guide the rookie, the commands speed up the expert. For example, if we write “balance” you will ask us if you show it in the chat or if you download it. If we write “Chat balance” you will show us directly. The Silbo Shares menu. A shipment of money … … and a money application (happily corresponded). By the way, the fluorine yellow that uses whistle as a brand image seemed to me somewhat strident at the beginning. After trying it, it is clear to me: it makes it easier to quickly locate the conversation with a Scroll visual. It stands out, and a lot. The most remarkable is how to take advantage of WhatsApp omnipresence. You don’t have to download another app or learn to use another interface, everything happens in a family environment. It even has a collection of Stickers Own that include messages such as “who pays rest”, perfect for using passive-agreesive tone. The withdrawal of the balance to our bank account. His challenge will be to achieve critical mass. Like whatsapp or bizum, You need adoption to be useful. Its advantage is to operate on WhatsApp, canonical in Spain. His challenge, convince users to take the step, especially considering Bizum’s current domain. In my tests I have done several operations: load balance, send money, claim it, receive it, withdraw it, consultations, etc. Everything works fluently, without complications or delays (the withdrawals take one or two days). The only real friction is the need to load previously balance. Overcome that step, the system is as natural as sending a message. Silbo optimizes more than revolutionary: take the mobile payment and simplify it by integrating it where we already live. It is pure pragmatism. Time will say if it manages to challenge Bizum.

give up fast money to win the war

Openai has chosen a conservative path to Operator: limit it to users of Chatgpt Prothose who pay 200 dollars a month. Only they can access this tool that automates tasks on the web. It is what OpenAi describes as a “prior research view”, and that lets us glimpse more an experiment than a finished product. Why is it important. The IA giant continues to prioritize product refinement over immediate income. 200 dollars a month per user capable of using operator are many dollars … but that is an important limit to its adoption in this phase. And it is deliberate. Between the lines. Openai has signed alliances with companies such as Dordash, Instacart, Priceline, Openable or Uber. That could suggest trade agreements to monetize operator on the side of the companies, but the OpenAi Coo, Brad Lightcap, has been blunt in the Wall Street Journal: There is no financial relationship in these collaborations. They are only optimizing the user experience to become more compatible with Operator. Therefore, the income that Operator now will come exclusively from Pro subscriptions. But that can change in the future: Openai has announced expansion plans to Users Plus, Team and Enterprise. He has also promised to release the API of Your Cua model (Computer-Useing agent) For developers. At the moment, there are no dates for either of those two promises. In perspective. Openai operates in a market with a giant potential. Analysts expect that The generative AI will move more than one billion dollars a year in less than a decade. However, Openai is betting on perfecting operator with a controlled implementation rather than maximizing short -term income. The bet. Initially limiting operator to its most committed and enthusiastic users (those who pay $ 200 per month), OpenAi seeks feedback quality. The one that is most capable of giving this type of user. In addition, errors are less expensive in this phase, and more valuable learning. This strategy suggests something: that the monetization plans with greater reach will come when the product is more mature. Deepen. Openai’s caution is striking because it contrasts with its aggressiveness on other fronts. For example, a few days ago we knew that it was also part of the Stargate projectvalued in half a billion dollars. Operator seems like an experimental strategic project, but not so much an immediate source of income. In Xataka | OpenAi prepares an AI with a doctoral level. He is so promising that he will first show it to the US government Outstanding image | OpenAI, Xataka with Mockuuuups Studio
