Why HydraList? What we dislike and want to change

Here at HydraList.com we are constantly making sure how we can differentiate ourselves with what we consider inferior productivity solutions similar to what we offer. Combined with our plans for a mobile application, here is just a few of what keeps us hungry.

What we dislike:
Currently our competitors lack the all in one solution that I envision HydraList to offer to users. We want to keep an all in one solution culture to our product. Whether it be price comparison, deal searching or suggesting real products you can buy, we'll keep you focused on doing and not searching.

- Focus on the content: Here at HydraList we believe that checklists are all about the platform and with some of our competitors focusing solely on the content of their guides or lists, they miss out on what makes checklists so simple, the list itself. The flow of the platform should be as simple as possible and very approachable to get started.

To illustrate my insistence on platform over content I point to the example of Facebook in the early 2000s. MySpace's focus on content lead to radically varying profile designs, experiences and overall branding. Facebook came in and pulled the reigns back on how far a user could modify the appearance of the site and took control of the user experience. Clean and simple, their platform beat MySpace with their clean blue colours and branded experience points like The Wall and the Newsfeed.

- Mobile Access: Currently there isn't an extension of checklists that users can take on the go. Checklists are all about getting things done and with HydraList our vision is to have a mobile application that provides real value to our Hydras. Subscribing to lists and receiving daily or weekly checklists to finish your objective is critical to our mission to help the world get shit done. The productivity category in the App store is full of potential winners and some really awesome tools for many facets of your life. When I was younger I envisioned robots to help us in our daily routines and until we get the true AI we need, the productivity sections of the App store are a great preview (combined with some imagination) of the potential in the future.

Without revealing too much we feel that our one stop solution from an ecommerce and data aggregation perspective , focus on building a great platform, and mobile application is what is going to take us over the edge and let HydraList add value to your everyday life.
