Rationale

Marco Polo is a video chat app that focuses on asynchronous video communication, allowing users to send video messages to each other. It explicitly mentions features like sending videos, getting them back, and connecting on one's own schedule, which aligns with the core concept of asynchronous video. The 'Plus' and 'Pro' plans detail features such as speed controls (basic editing), unlimited storage (implying shared links and storage), transcripts, photo and voice-only Polos (camera recording), custom emoji reactions, notes and video reactions (timestamped comments), and search (which leverages transcripts). The 'Pro' plan for businesses also mentions 'link share Polos' and 'copy and paste your Polo transcripts', further confirming instant shared links and video transcripts. While it doesn't explicitly state 'screen recording' as a primary feature, its focus is on personal video messages, which aligns with camera recording. Viewer analytics are implied through 'How do I know if someone watched my Polo?' in the FAQ, and password protection is implied by the focus on privacy and control over sharing. The mobile app is central to its offering.
