Very interesting, but some words on pricing are IMO a must-have.<p>E.g. it's not really a problem for me to find a legal advisor, but paying for his service is. I also believe many non-technical founders can easily find an agency that can advise them on mobile, but they can't pay for it.

Confidentiality would be one of the key concerns I'd have -- e.g. if I wanted advice on the security industry, the best positioned people to give me advice would be either CISOs at potential customers or people at competitors, so by asking "should I do X in 6 months?" or "My cost is $x. Should I charge $10x?" in a place where either might see it, I'd be screwing myself more than paying someone I know to be impartial 0.1% or $250/hr to answer it.<p>Seems like something you'd need to address. For some issues it might not be a big deal (~any lawyer answering legal questions would be bound by professional ethics, so it'd be ok, and a lot of questions don't involve much confidentiality).

Where do you find all these experts? Please don't be a recruiting firm in disguise.

I am curious to know why you chose <i>insta</i>+ name for your product? I mean there are quite a few launches on HN with <i>insta</i> + appendwhateverservicename kind of name lately.<p>One back of the mind thought that comes is choosing such a name really "smarts" or it boils down to some sort of wishful thinking?<p>My take for instance here, is that this launch has probably helped me to remember Instagram only better. Not the service in question. But that could be just me. What do you think?
