Shark Tank US | The Sharks Are Skeptical About Beulr's Business Model
/ sptv
The most impressive thing to me was this kid’s attitude and total openness.
did he come on there to just troll?
@@alp.9672 No, he got good promotion..... More students now will join...
Yes!
It's a stupid idea and a stupid pitch. I wouldve been out as soon as he finished the pitch.
@@Rascon5 - Easy boy, you realize that every participant is screened first with their pitch by the producers several times, right? Please let us all know when you are going to be on shark tank😂
Wouldn’t it be funny, if he hired people to run this business but then they’re not really there to do the job.
😂😂😂
xD ''Yo Peter, why you subbed to our SaaS, Peter you there..?''
Lol
Genius
😂😂😂😂😂
After Peter walked off of the set, the Sharks called him back in. Barbara was on the screen using Buelr to inform him that she was out.
Omg you are sooo funny with this unique new joke 😍😍😍😍😍
@@emmarosie7176 haha u let Barbara jokes upset u lol
😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@emmarosie7176 it was actually funny
Bro this is the best one 🤣🤣🤣🤣
This guy will succeed. Maybe not with this idea, but with some other. I like his energy.
Thanks:)
@@peterthedecent are you really here or are you completely somewhere else ;)
No, anybody that develops software knows how to write a program like that in 2 hours. The guy is extremely lazy and a scammer.
@@Agent_Leelan Don't underestimate technical development. In two hours, you can't even create an IT architecture, let alone a working program with all AI features. But I agree with you that the ethical question is legitimate in this business model.
@@peterthedecent hey dude i think you should work on something else or even go back to school. I don't think it's a money making idea and also like Kevin said there is a compliance issue because if you are a student and get found out to be doing fake attendance then the repercussions are great, they can kick you out of the university/college. It's too high risk and feels a bit fraudulant
This guy would have been a *star* if he was in a mid/late 2000s DisneyXD show
Man that is spot on
He's a mix of Drake and Josh
If only I could go back in time
@@peterthedecent yooooooo, that’s you
I thought this was Phil's grandpa from Phil of the Future.
Barbara could totally use Beulr to say she's out in every shark tank pitch.
HAAAAAAAAAAAAA
could also throw in a couple " i dont understand this" and " i find you very weird"
😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Omg she will buy his premium package.😅😅 just to get her payment from the tank and tend to her businesses. Ultra rich can use it probably. With their kids or toddlers.
this guy is awesome, maybe not as an entrepreneur, but he would totally rock in a startup
“Totally rock in a startup but not an entrepreneur.” Are you an idiot bruv? Do you know what the two terms really mean , they are supplementary and complementary to each other
Was just going to say his energy was awesome!
Good energy is useless if it’s not I invested correctly
@@MegaMeco2 what have you done
Ay fellow Vinland saga fan wassup
The legend tells Peter got a whole bunch of other offers after Shark Tank. He went into a whole bunch of meetings with Big Time Investors, but they all turned out to be pre-recorded meetings
😂😂
LOL
🤣🤣
@@peterthedecent 🤣🤣🤣
Lol
He looks like the guy who plays the main character friend in a sitcom. So charming
Charming and charismatic. Also kind of cute. Maybe that's why the Sharks didn't tear him apart.
@@tj.espygil4544 And dumb as a box of nails lol
He’s pathetic and cringe.
Yea the kind of friend that gets shredded to pieces by Freddie Krueger because he adds nothing to the story except pity like his scam product.
@@bikerboy3k 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Barbara will record herself saying she is out and loop it for every pitch.
This guy came up with a a business idea in front of bosses/employers who will not tolerate their employees using such system to cheat work.
That's what I was thinking!
Yea but you know how many work from home employees would use this? I say charge like $30/mo honestly
This guy is a great salesman, great attitude and communication. Could be a good actor also
His mind is in the right place. He’s starting with issues that may look small but needs to be addressed by a lot of people. I think he’s on track to be a fantastic engineer, regardless of industry.
What are you talking about? This product is completely useless even if it was fully functional (which it is not). He just came up with a way for employee's to cheat their employers, and also a surefire way to get fired and socially ostracized.
The idea is very complex considering the bot has to have atleast 50% of the knowledge in that meeting , it could work like robo calls even then and people will get frustrated when they dont get the answer they are looking for.
His mind is not in the right place. I'm sick and tired of this trend of people trying to avoid work at all costs. There's no shortcut.
You don't get anywhere worth going taking shortcuts. At some point if you want to get somewhere worth going you have to just work.
Also this app is reliant on people frauding their schools are their employers. If your employer is paying you to be at a meeting and you're not really there you're defrauding the company.
So no I'm sorry but his mind isn't in the right place
What exactly needs to be address from attending a meeting you are suppose to be in and being paid for?
Not an engineer ... He needs to be out in front of people. Very likable!
Honestly...the guy saw a need and met it. I wish him the best.
Indeed he did but only really viable for underground and very niche use. For it to grow and become mainstream viable defeats the entire purpose because companies/lecturers will simply do a role call at the start of every session. It's a clever idea that is impossible to grow exponentially.
@@justmedee Damn... AI really meant nothing to you.
This is a great product for Barbara to loop her infamous “I’m out” line.
You ain’t lyin! Lol
😂😂😂
Actually, Barbara has been using it all along... She co-developed Beulr!
🤣🤣🤣
The jokes about Barbara never get old, even when she’s not on the panel 😂 You guys crack me up lol
She could’ve been via Beulr
We miss her
he didn’t actually want a deal. the exposure was enough. that’s why he laughed when everyone opted out. no way he actually expected anyone to put money into a scandal
1. It's not a scandal.
2. None of the sharks invested money because it will question their moral character because in our society, a product like this will be seen in a bad light.
3. The product is smart and has a humongous demand for it in the world. Imagine a scenario where 50+ people HAVE TO attend a meeting without really contributing anything.
But unfortunately it looks like the guy changed his product into a boring note taking tool. I just checked his website. Now you can happily stop calling it a "scandal". Ha ha.
@@sonukunnath lol its a completely ridiculous product based on deception. Who the hell would invest in this, let alone use it?
@@madingo02 Hundreds of students and office goers did the exact same thing with the help of second screen, paper cutout etc. TH-cam is filled with videos like those. So THERE IS a potential user base.
@@sonukunnath do you really think online classes and meetings will be a permanent thing now that the world is starting to open up again. This is not profitable at all.
@@bettafishes913 you're a fool if you dont think zoom meeting will largely be the norm
Mark is right, without AI this tech is totally useless. My instructors in school could always bypass this easily by making people do polls (and marking absent to those that don't respond), or asking a random question to anyone in the group at any time.
This guy seems like a genuinely awesome dude. With that kind of energy, he will never fail.
sure.
Idea is good, product is effective for whatever it’s doing but the integrity issue as a business is a huge turn off for everyone imo
True
I think the main problem the sharks had was that this product is not effective. The owner literally said its minimally viable.
I disagree...I don't think it's effective at all. When Robert asked how it would work when someone asks the bot a question, he said interaction isn't a part of it. That's literally ineffective lol
an idea is not equivalent to a business
@@whoaaDAMN i think it's mainly for zoom classes and stuff for school and for me I was pretty much never asked questions
you have got to love Mr wonderful. he cracks me up all the time.
I like it how the sharks laugh together and sometimes they argue but no hard feelings. That’s the way the entire world should be.
And then they have horrific guests come on here and people are about to throw hands.
mark nailed it! he understood how expensive it would be hire a team to do the NLP to make decisions
He's right, but we raised money and we do have a team of AI engineers now, by the way!
@@peterthedecent I love your idea. How do I invest?
@@peterthedecent That's awesome! I hope you succeed, as you can tell from the comments everyone loves ya!
@@peterthedecent this is an amazing idea
@@peterthedecentamazing!
The best thing about this guy is he already knew his weaknesses and he didn't try to make this look legit.
It was a lot of fun to watch him what he did.
This guy is a real rock star. Because he can partner up with someone great and just handle the marketing/business side of things.
this is a great app if he flips the usage. For example say you want to miss a meeting, then schedule your BOT to attend the meeting and send yourself a recording.
Or as a virtual assistant to transcribe meetings
That's what I was gonna say. At the very least, it should have a recording function. That felt obvious from the get go
The major problem is, you are not allowed to grab recordings for meetings if the members of the party don't consent to it.
@@Heimrih u can record it yourself using 3rd party softwares tho
Mark Cuban is right even with surface level understanding of AI. Nonchalantly saying the next iteration they can just place a layer of natural language processing on top of it is no small feat. It's something that Google and Amazon hasn't even been able to get right on their Google Assistant and Alexa, and those technologies have infinitely larger markets.
Mr.Wonderful is genuinely hilarious and a nice guy
No and no. He's FAR from a nice guy. Google for him and the various lawsuits and charges against him.
This is one of the dumbest and laziest things I’ve ever seen come in the Shark Tank. Lol.
lol kevin said he loved it so i wouldn’t call it a flop, but like they said it’s not investable bc it’s not really a company that has the potential to scale
Welcome to 2022
What a bad company idea. Imagine how untrustworthy online would be afterwards. I would imagine teachers using the app, prerecording their sessions, sending them, and not attending any of their classes. Students who have questions would become puzzled... Not a student/teacher/anything friendly app, ironically created by a friendly guy.
@@LukePrice173 Its scalable.. but a gamble because anyone can make something similar..
@@josephdahdouh2725 not really... what I have learned in the last 2 years is that... they are going to call a physical meeting if its really important... otherwise, the just hold a video conference just to see how many bothered to attend..
as a student during a pandemic I would’ve payed for this I think were just a different generation
Lori puts it across so well, even when out....always
just like Barbara hhhh
Used to think the same. However, I’ve seen one or two pitches where she has it wrong and she’s just so rude. Lol. Most of the time I think she’s respectful and shares her take well though.
@@AshNikkosWifeone or two but they’ve seen thousands of pitches so who cares lol they need to be “out” cuz they can’t invest in thousands of business
The brightest, yet most humble and appreciative entrepreneur I've ever seen. He might have failed this one time, but with that appreciative and humble mindset (zero ego), this entrepreneur is gonna go places in the entrepreneurial journey.
This was like Bizzaro World Shark Tank... Normally, it is Mark Cuban who jumps at such ideas screaming "SCAM!!!" out loud. Yet, this time around, all others pointed at the indecency of the intent, and it was Mark who actually did get into the specifics of making it viable. Very weird that not even his face said "hard pass!" Had the dude come up with some solid plan and expertise on AI, it looked like Mark could be interested.
Didn't Mark scammed people with a NFT crypto scheme?
He had to bring the low cost pharmacy to clean his name
I was wondering the same! I mean, is that idea even ethical?
The business itself isn't really a scam, since it does what he says it does.
imagine, all the people in the meeting using the app
What a beautiful person inside & out. Spot on a fantastic disposition ❣️
I like his attitude.
He came around, showed his product, took the advices and then went back home without any concern.
He didn't took himself seriously at all.
Even without a deal, is kind of a winner because of all of the feedbacks that normally, without shark tank, i think, he would have never received otherwise by them.
I suspect however, that if he would have created something smart like IA attendance (as Cuban said) , results would have been different.
I think the catch 22 of this one is that "if" the service takes off and hits critical mass you will just see companies and schools quickly introduce process to ensure that you aren't using it. Thus the venture is destined to fail, even if it starts to succeed. (Mostly because the entire business model is dishonesty)
Dude I would totally use this product too. He's not wrong about it. 99% of the time you won't get asked anything anyway in a lecture or even a conference call. I could totally use that time to do something I actually need to do
yeah when i was in my last year of college i had a new born baby & everything had just shut down so we were doing zoom meetings & there were a few times where we had to attend classes that were just review for exams that i had already studied for & as a new mom i could definitely have used a little more sleep instead lol
Yeah there are software engineers out there that can create a similar product in a few days. I think a few of the sharks knew that. ...also user video uploading is a bit expensive
Its a first to market business model, facebook can be replicated as big as it is.
@@tenslider6722 I agree, and first to scale
Instead of video user can upload compressed gif file.
He should have kept this particular service as a low-key word of mouth thing, and used his skills to develop an actually marketable product. Employers and professors watch Shark Tank too -- why go on the show and inform the people that you're trying to deceive?
I'm not saying it's right to deceive people I'm just saying from that guy's perspective, as the business owner, it was not in his own best interest to inform more people of a service that involves deception. Some people go on the show for exposure but for this product there is such a thing as TOO MUCH exposure. The success of his product depends on flying under the radar.
Make sense yes
Right
This is the best pandemic product I've come across so far. You are right. He should have just stuck to word of mouth, charged a one time fee for purchasing the app and then making content on TikTok for example to market it to school and college students. I would have bought this product immediately if I knew it existed. I skipped most of my early morning college lectures during the pandemic and this product would have come in handy. What I used to do was wake up, join the online lecture without video and sound on and then go back to sleep while the lecture played on mute on my laptop in the background. This would save all that hassle.
@@MarieJesne very well said!
he's pretty intelligent, I think he knew he would not get a deal and just use this as an opportunity to advertise
Everyone check out the face he made when Kevin said "Attendance is sometimes legally required." COMEDIC GOLD (6:33--6:38)
Geesh. You have a low bar for comedy gold.
This is gold because there are many company wide meetings where users can't speak. Only the CEO.
The most polite mr. Wonderful.
I feel like this is a brilliant idea that he should’ve just kept to himself for pure quality of life purposes. Once people are widely aware of it, it doesn’t work at all.
Mr wonderful and his jokes can never disappoint 😂
Loved it, and how all of them were equally respectful to each other. But Shark Tank probably wasn't such a good platform to start off with-but I can't emphasize enough how GREAT of an idea that is frr.
Good on this guy with his incredible energy, just accepting his fate and smiling it off! I've never seen someone handle rejection such graciously lol.
Mark should hire this guy. He is a genius.
I went and searched for their website and looks like his product has transformed into a service that has good utility. Great job!
🤔If it were a AI BOT it could learn what your responses in meetings would be. If that BOT could attend the meeting as “your” BOT and give you the meeting minutes, like an assistant or tell you what your action items are from the meeting (don’t try to deceive anyone) that might work. IDK 🤷🏻♀️
He should have pitched it as something you can use in case you aren't able to attend meetings because of a busy schedule so it records it for you and uses a bot to kind of not be disrespectful to the teacher in the meeting.
Shout out Mr. Frenkel for showing us Shark Tank during class
This guy would absolutely kill it as a hollywood actor or a comedian, but maybe not as an entrepreneur
This pitch looks like one of the most fun where the sharks were just having a good time laughing about it all and the guy had a great attitude.
That last joke of mr wonderful is so funny 🤣🤣🤣
This was never going to work. He's pitching this product to a group of execs who call these meetings, run them, and expect their managerial staff to show. That is the real 'integrety' aspect they all hint at after they stop being amused.
This is one of the rare times that I think it’s an excellent idea but I understand the sharks not wanting in
This guy is great, he is probably there just for the experience but that is the best thing you can do, it is better 1000 times over just siting in the class all day (tho you should also learn in class...)
As business people I'm a little surprised they all weren't against it just based on the unethical nature of it. It may be ok for college students to do once in a while, but in the business world it could get someone fired.
That’s true the scrub daddy was also unethical because somebody could drop it then slip and die
@@Glitch0836No lol
Well Mark Cuban hates meetings. I believe he has said he does most of his business by emails because he believes meetings are not productive
Easily my favorite pitch dude ever, more people should be like this
Like Mr. Miyagi said, “Sometimes best way attend meeting…No be there.”
Mark is 100% correct. Imagine if he dove into AI response recognition to where your video avatar response to questions being asked and recording it both ways.
Exactly
2:24 everyone give Mark a hand 👏🏼. Great job special buddy!

Kevin at the end 🤣🤣
He's definitely a very smart person, with a charming personality. Dude will success
I don't think so. Success requires hard work.
Dude Peter is pretty! Hes a cutie, and those red cheeks.. 😍 Regardless of his looks, I think hes gonna do just fine in life
Would be so damn easy to make a business. Run 2 ads everytime before your customer can setup a meeting. AD gives you revenue. If someone doesn't want to wait for the ads, pay for premium give the person some extra benefit next to being ad free. Easy-peasy lemon squeezy. I just made you millionaire in 4 sentences.
@@dogbreathmints depends on what you consider rich. I don’t feel rich, but i’m not struggling either.
This guy has Bay Area tech sales written all over him. I think he’d actually be quite good at it too
If you’re business model relies on time fraud then I’d say it’s safe to be skeptical at best
He made an app that has 92k users. Pretty impressive. My app only had 10 users 😂
@@KK-fw4zq what's the app? let's make it 11! 😂
Skipping class is fraud lol sit down
@@anakinskywalker70 right unless it's like a job thingy who tf cares
@@dogbreathmints can’t send someone to prison for missing a zoom 🤣🤣🤣
The looks on their faces are priceless.... The reality is that it's super disrespectful to do this in any business. You would destroy your career if you missed a couple questions.
I think it's more designed for the 200 person intro to whatever class
I love this guy's attitude and disposition. I am on board with all the Sharks regarding integrity and creating a way to "cheat". Part of being a successful person IS showing up and being engaged. I think that's a character trait of almost all if not all successful people. I mean, i do like his thinking and creativity. But I wonder how he can use that same mindset to building another product.
Every time there is a bad idea, they should be like, “I’ll take 50% at $1.” It would be so funny if a “business owner” actually accepted the deal.
It has to be at at least the asking money
Lmao!! Mr. Wonderful with the last laugh!! 😂😂😂😂
This dude is exactly how I run my company
Like spot the f on I forgot to say that
@@BirdieRowe Love that 😎
Marks reaction was everything I didn’t know I needed
He should crowdfund. Gen z would buy into it but bosses like the sharks won't.
Update: the business pivoted to note-taking and transcribing when you *can't* attend a meeting (which could also be used by hosts to make meeting minutes available to anyone):
"Say goodbye to manual note taking
during zoom calls
Beulr helps you automatically record and transcribe zoom meetings for free."
Imagine at the end it turns out that the guy talking to the sharks was a hologram and the real guys steps in and the pitch begins
I went to Tulane - this is THE most Tulane undergraduate invention ever
Barbara bought the subscription of Beulr so that while she was sleeping in, her pre recorded video could play on the show to tell him that she was out.
😂🙌🏼
This comment wins 😂
That expression “grill” informally means to subject any person with
intense questioning or interrogation.
Daymond’s right he should have attended more classes
I love that he named it as Bueller from the movie “Ferris Bueller's Day Off”
That just screams a future licensing problem of the name.
One of the best pitches I’ve seen, hilarious
This guy is so engineer like. Reminds me of everyone I’ve meet in college so far. Definitely go back to o school u can make it through and be a great engineer!!
This guy is genius...by just pitching the idea here he marketed it to millions of students and lasy asses across the globe 😅😅😅😅
its funny to see the sharks initial mindsets. Daymond was grilling him on "how can you not get caught, they will know you're doing the same thing!", while Mark sees the joke aspect of the company
This guy is fit for only one thing: motivational speaker!
He's very handsome. Wish him the best of luck!
This dude is the real life Ferris bueller
Barba would love this.
*loops* "I'm out!"
So many red flags:
"I talked to like two VP's informally"
$1,000 a month
Market cap
Pandemic is over
Legal problems
Quit school over a mildly inventive web app
Loosely throws AI as a buzzword
Didn't think over Mark's flat fee proposal
Maxed out his credit card
I'm Out.
Its okay youre out, youre nothing special.
I remember seeing someone who was programmer made an actual AI program which does answers questions n also abl to present/pitch during meeting.
If these 2 meet it would have been a very cool product
Great idea for all those meetings that could've been an email...
2:04 Robert farts from laughter
when kevin said “SOME OF THE WORLDS I LIVE IN.” 🤔🤔🤔
🤣🤣🤣 Literally and scary
It can be useful for those global meetings with 100+ joiners where you dont have to interact and later can come back and read Teams script or rewatch at 2x speed. But because you cant join due to real schedule conflict, not going to the beach.
Jajaja imagine a reunion where two or more ppl are using this app! Jajaja
I know somebody who has already done this, but with an important distinction. You don't use it to fool people into thinking you're there. You use it to attend and collect information from live meetings that you can't attend at that time for review later. The virtual you is just an advanced profile picture / video that better represents you and or your brand. So essentially what you have is a scheduled meeting recorder. TIVO for meetings if you will. In addition, pre-meeting you can set important keywords/phrases to listen for. With this the app can highlight content you're interested in and even create summaries. City meetings, HOA meetings, a conference where you can't attend all meetings held at the same time, your kids sports meetings etc.
Bro where was this 2 years ago when i had online college
as soon as google, teams and zoom requires captcha to join the meeting....
