Eek. I used Filepicker at my last start-up and loved it. In fact, the website's still using it right now. I integrated it before it was called Ink, went through a rebrand, and now I'm left wondering if the old code I wrote is still going to work.

I wish there was more context here and explained if the product was going away or not. On a personal note: I had talked with Brett and Anand repeatedly in the past, it would've been nice to get more details.



Glad you love the product, everything will work as before. I would extend that and say it will be more robust and faster then ever before.


You should understand that your blog post makes us filepicker users nervous. Please tell us more about what it going on. This is normally the feeling I get when I have to start planning a transition. Give us some fact, or plans even.


We are doubling down on the product. We want to make sure everything is extremely stable first. We have an awesome roadmap that we will be sharing on the blog soon that outlines our plans to make filepicker the best service for dealing with files.


It isn't the product that has me worried - it is already very useful. It is the team and financing that is. Will you make it to cash flow positive? Will you survive? Is there at least a reasonable plan to get there?


cschmidt, Filepicker is growing fast,will survive, and has a very bright future ahead. We will be publishing our roadmap soon.


Glad to hear it. I'll look forward to reading your roadmap.
