<Scott Hassan>'s shitty <#telepresence robot> startup. Looking at the demos it is so painfully obvious why they failed, that feeble tall screen on wheels. But <hindsight is 20 20>... It is almost as bad as <OurBigBook>.
The most notable usage of the product is <Snowden Snowbot>, which is sad, the product name seems to have been "Beam". Who would use that if not for theatrics with an exilee when everyone already has a screen in front of their face all the time?https://www.forbes.com/sites/jilliandonfro/2020/02/28/suitable-technologies-bankruptcy-filing-scott-hassan-allison-huynh/{ref}
At least this phase produced some of the only videos of Hassan in existence such as:
* https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K0QBQK0kH60
* https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ap6o76pzZJ4
He's got a perfect <#american accent>, so likely not a <first generation immigrant>.
