Building an All-In-One/Everything/Super App

Every reputable VC and successful entrepreneur tells us to make super niche, super specialized apps. I think this opinion needs to be rethought.

I think everything apps have super potential.

• WeChat

Founded in 2011, it includes features like instant messaging, voice and video calls, and group chats. The "Moments" feature allows users to share updates and photos. Payment features enable users to make payments, transfer money, and pay bills effortlessly. "Mini Apps" within WeChat provide services like e-commerce, ride-hailing, and food delivery.

Now, it has 1.2B monthly active users, and one can't live without WeChat in China.

• Grab

Founded in 2012, it includes features like ride-hailing services similar to Uber, food delivery similar to Uber Food, cashless payments, and financial services across Southeast Asia.

• Lark

Founded in 2019, it includes features like IM messages, video conferencing, and file sharing. It also offers real-time collaborative document editing similar to Google Docs, built-in task management features for project tracking, and syncs with calendars for scheduling meetings and events.

Lark is made by the world's biggest unicorn, Bytedance.

Inside the company, Lark is considered the real HQ for its 150,000 employees - a giant company!

Instead of switching between multiple apps, I believe building everything into one app has huge potential.

That's why I'm building ninjatools[dot]ai, the everything app for AI. Our mission is to create an all-in-one platform for all AI tools.
