Even smaller, I commend their ability to offer new services but it should make it clear that this is a very limited offer.

Small? I can't think many subscription services with such numbers.

This is kinda small compared to other proposals

Small relative to their main competitors.

This is much smaller than I suspected.

It seems there is room for competition here.

Smaller, but willing to pay.

True, I agree on that. Just that I used the same wording of the app to refer to the task. Tiny ideally is very small. Might be I should change it given I will be adding additional pricing tiers as well.

I don't know about that. They include the word small. Judging from the original headline and HN story position, how big would you estimate this business to be?

McMaster has >700,000 products available on its website so I wouldn’t really call that relatively small.

It is more segmented than what Amazon offers.

You call "less than 100M revenue" small?? Has to be A LOT less to be considered small in my book :)

jacobush | karma 3029 | avg karma 0.74 · | 2019-01-26 13:54:25+00:00

It is much smaller.

snyena | karma 88 | avg karma 1.87 · | 2021-01-21 01:03:13+00:00

Not sure if small but less work (for less money, I'm fine with that).

Agreed that it's not a lot, but it was also very small.

sylware | karma 161 | avg karma 0.07 · | 2023-07-18 06:06:30

"Small", here, it means being able to get real-life alternatives with significantly less effort and time.

IanLewis | karma 2 | avg karma 1.0 · | 2010-04-26 10:16:18+00:00

Even smaller if you don't count Japanese startups.

johnchristopher | karma 10080 | avg karma 1.96 · | 2014-01-08 14:36:13+00:00

I am under the impression that everything is smaller.

j0hnj0hn | karma 3 | avg karma 0.43 · | 2012-07-23 23:08:59+00:00

It's smaller.

photonbeam | karma 1038 | avg karma 2.6 · | 2023-01-04 07:56:53

Thats smaller than I expected for such a prominent company

fauxpause_ | karma 724 | avg karma 1.98 · | 2023-05-23 08:40:30

Sure. It’s still small.

guerrilla | karma 7914 | avg karma 1.95 · | 2023-08-22 02:36:52

I'm surprised to hear it's so little.
