Beeper

Beeper is the universal-chat app Eric Migicovsky discusses briefly in Eric Migicovsky on Pebble, Kickstarter, and Building for Yourself. The source presents it as Eric’s post-Pebble company, a Y Combinator Summer 2021 startup, and a side project that began during COVID because he wanted one place to communicate across many chat networks.

The episode does not provide a full Beeper operating history; the hosts explicitly say they want a future part two for that story. Its value in this ingest is as a second example of Build For Yourself Founder Fit: Eric again begins from a tool he personally wants, this time around fragmented social and work messaging rather than wrist notifications.
