openpilot VS grouparoo

Yes, but he spent several years in self-driving cars (https://comma.ai), which while interesting is also a space that a lot of players are in, so it's not the same as seeing him back to doing stuff that's a little more out there, especially as pertains to IP.

We have a product for sale: https://comma.ai

We raised $18.1M and have made $28M in lifetime revenue to date.

Where are you getting your narrative?

What about comma? https://comma.ai/ Seems like our old friend geohot built exactly what you want.

The issue was that the front camera on the windshield couldn’t see under the hood. You misunderstand how easy it is to solve for depth and distance with AI without requiring stereo cameras. Read https://github.com/commaai/openpilot

Nice to have: I want to get a self-driving add-on that supports some cars better than others. Not a must but high up on my nice-to-have list.

EDIT: I probably should have added that I currently have the base model of the Kona the lowest model available, and I am looking for a similar thing in the ioniq 6, because my understanding is that it's fully compatible with the comma.ai device and therefore I am not planning on getting the better on board driving system, the Kona that I got unfortunately was not compatible with that device.

I wonder how bad this is compared to the competition. https://comma.ai allows you to add self-driving features to a large number of non-Tesla cars so, if we’re including physical firmware hacks as a threat vector, I’d bet tons of alternative cars (new enough Honda Odysseys, Toyota Siennas, etc: probably anything with adaptive cruise control and lane following) have the same sort of potential vulnerability.

Not sure, but from the first article from 4 years ago:

>Last month, we had 1,209 cars drive a little over 1,000,000 miles

Let's say they've had zero growth since then, so 48,000,000 conservatively?

Actually, from their website [1]:

>100+ million miles driven and 10k users.

Reverse ETL is on AirByte's roadmap under the "Future / Not prioritized" section. I wanted to use Grouparoo as a short term solution, but the repo was archived and I think they stopped taking new cloud customers (unknown if this is wrong/outdated).

There are other tools that we will have to adopt in the future but haven’t yet due to lack of necessity. Specifically, one category that is popular in modern data stacks is Reverse ETL (Hightouch, Census, or Grouparoo). We currently don’t have a usecase for piping data back into 3rd party tools but it will definitely come up in the future.

Reverse ETL: Grouparoo, Castled

Grouparoo, the open source Reverse ETL tool we are building, does all of these things. https://www.grouparoo.com

Grouparoo is a venture-backed software company building open source data tools that make data reliable, accessible, and actionable. We’re empowering teams to make great customer experiences, driven by data. While engineering teams have gotten good at storing and generating data about their customers, it’s rare that this data is used to its full potential in external applications. Grouparoo makes these integrations easy by providing a framework for defining your customer data and reliably syncing it to external tools.

Tech Stack: TypeScript / Javascript / Node.js, ActionHero, React + Next.js, Postgres & Redis, and whole lot of third-party APIs!

Congrats on the launch! Hightouch looks great and this need is real. Things seem to be going well, so I don't think I'm taking too much away by mentioning that we have been been working on Grouparoo, an open source alternative that solves similar pain points.

A few differences: git developer workflow focused (branches, CI, PRs, etc), ability to self host, segmentation in destinations (tagging people in mailchimp based on rules, for example)

We are building Grouparoo. Obviously, it's a biased sample but we are seeing a few trends at play.

Has anyone heard or used of reverse etl or Hightouch or open sourced Grouparoo?
