Greplin becomes Cue - Intelligent "Snapshot" of your Day

Our sincere apologies for the confusion - our launch got jumped 48 hours by a press mixup and we've been working all night to get everything in place as quickly as possible.<p>Greplin search hasn't changed - it is still availalble as Cue Search - both in our app and on our website. Web access is hard to get to for the next few minutes - right now it's accessible at <a href="https://www.cueup.com/login" rel="nofollow">https://www.cueup.com/login</a> (will be linked from cueup.com momentarily). In the iPhone app, the search functionality has been streamlined and is available as a tab.<p>We still care about search a lot. It's the foundation of all the new features, and it's critical to the long term goals of our service.<p>If you encounter any issues, as always, we're quick to respond at support@cueup.com

Seems like "Greplin team scraps Greplin, launches new calendar app" would be a more meaningful title. As a side note, did they automatically unregister their application from my facebook, gmail, twitter, whatever, or do I have to do that myself?<p>UPDATE: Greplin still has access to my google account. <a href="http://screencast.com/t/c8mQiZMo" rel="nofollow">http://screencast.com/t/c8mQiZMo</a> wtf, greplin? I authorized for a specific purpose and you shut down the app; why are you still holding the keys to my google account?<p>To see google account app auth settings: <a href="https://accounts.google.com/IssuedAuthSubTokens" rel="nofollow">https://accounts.google.com/IssuedAuthSubTokens</a>

The landing page looks nice, but it really doesn't tell me anything about the product.<p>Only if I pay close attention to the screenshots can I infer that it's a calendar that gets information from multiple sources, and that tries to bring up the relevant information.<p>But why would I need an app different from the default Calendar app? Sure you get the relevant info for my lunch from OpenTable and from my flight. But really, that doesn't happen very often that I have in the same day a lunch and a flight with info that just a calendar event wouldn't have. For the most part, I can just pull to get the notification center and most of the same info is there.<p>Side note: I find it more and more common to have that kind of beautiful landing page that are too much about the design and not enough about delivering information.

Does anyone know why the original Greplin product didn't take off?<p>We have more of our data siloed in cloud services like Evernote. We need a way to search them and Google is too distracted with G+ to enter this space. So why weren't more of us using Greplin?

Color me disappointed. The blog makes some nebulous claim about Cue retaining Greplin's features, but makes no specific assertations about the future of search. If you're retaining those features, why have you made them inaccessible? The Greplin website redirects to Cue, so I can't search now. If search is indeed gone, so be it, but I can't help but wonder why you've cut me off from your service before the new UI is ready for me to use.

I'm sure I'm not the only Android user who would be interested in using this. Is there an ETA for an Android version?

As someone who never used Greplin, I'll focus on what I do like: I found the layout quite creative. The top images of the iPhone remain fully scaled to your browser width, which means the menu below is only revealed when you scroll down. Thus, no matter what the browser size, you're always only focusing on the photos and features of the service, until you scroll down. Quite clever.

I can't comment on the product since I never used it, but the rebrand surprises me...<p><i>Greplin</i> is novel, short, spellable (pick up grepplin.com and greppelin.com just in case), googleable, defensible, and clever. By most standards it's a great trademark.<p><i>Cue</i> is common, heavily overloaded, unsearchable, ambiguously spelled ("like, the letter 'q'?), and you don't even have the domain name.<p>This seems like a mistake.

Dang. We were a paying customer of Greplin and loved it. What do we do now? Can I buy / whitelabel the IP?<p>Email address in profile.

There's a blog post briefly explaining it here:<p><a href="http://blog.cueup.com/announcing-a-new-name-new-free-service-cue" rel="nofollow">http://blog.cueup.com/announcing-a-new-name-new-free-service...</a>

I haven't tried it yet, but this has amazing potential. It has become a service that not only searches all your stuff, but makes sense of it and displays it in an intelligent way.

Shame about Greplin - I didn't use it particularly regularly, but I loved that it was there if I ever wanted to delve back to something I half-remembered, like a long-lost tweet.

What happens to the people who were paying for the premium version of Greplin? Are you providing any refunds? At a minimum, are you unlinking their credit cards and ceasing to charge them?

"Greplin becomes Cue" so does that mean Greplin is shutting down? I thought it was really popular. This look like a totally different app. What about existing users/customers?

Saw a presentation by the greplin CTO last year (<a href="http://www.infoq.com/presentations/Distributed-Systems-What-Nobody-Told-You" rel="nofollow">http://www.infoq.com/presentations/Distributed-Systems-What-...</a>) - seemed like were ready to give search a "social side". Now all these millions (billions) of documents just to display "8.02pm sunset"? I'm a little surprised.<p>Edit: After reading the blog post, I'm less surprised and can imagine where they are headed.

The one thing that I think is really missing is the ability to pull iCloud calendars/ the calendar on the iPhone. I stopped using Google Calendar and don't have an exchange account so everything comes through there. As it is right now, Cue just tells me about my facebook friends' birthdays.

I would love to see Microsoft Exchange integration -- I know just I alone could pull in a couple hundred users for you with this feature. In terms of aggregation and presentation of data, this is 100x better than any previous offering for Exchange users.

Looks really cool! Any way to get it to grab calendar items from the iPhone calendar? Very few of my items are in gcal, I use iCal on the desktop...

"Safari cannot open the page because too many redirects occurred." - what I get when trying to go to cueup.com or cueup.com/app on my phone.

I can't connect any of my accounts, it just hangs and or errors out. Shoddy app or just too much traffic right now?

This has to be the worst product launch ever.<p>What happens to the index of personal data they created when I gave them access to all my PII? I can go in and manually deauth Greplin from all my accounts (PAIN IN THE ASS) but that doesn't delete whatever data they stored on their end.

So, it's an alternate interface for my calendar?

The "get this app" link is broken

The "Personal Training" portion of the demo screenshots says 4am, but is clearly in the 4pm time slot.
