Virlo - Your Trend Spotting Companion
Hi HN, I built Virlo originally to go after the clipper/clipping market. We had so many customer approach us looking for more (essentially programmatic GTM tool for short-form) that we decided to “answer the mkt”. The pattern was the same on calls we had with early users, that weren't in our OG ICP: Head of Social is pulling inspo manually, creative director is copying trends that peaked three weeks ago, media buyer has no visibility into what competitors are actually spending behind on Meta. Everyone's working hard. Etc, etc… Virlo fixes the signal layer. You set up custom niches by…
