About LiveSwitch
A video platform that stopped selling video and started selling trade-specific AI
The feed is a corporate press wire rather than a changelog: an executive promotion, two quarterly survey data releases, a partner webinar. The product news that does appear is narrow and vertical — Lucky, an AI assistant for moving and home-service companies, and a Chariot partnership that automates inventory report creation with Sparky. Release cadence is low and irregular, with gaps of months between substantive posts.
