Founding Story
The founders initially built Desklamp out of college, a PDF note-taking and sharing tool for students and academic researchers. After YC advised them to solve a problem they had personally experienced, they noticed that Desklamp’s product videos improved adoption but took up to two weeks to produce; this led them to build Clueso to automate polished product videos and visual documentation.
