Where Town slows you down

It lives in another tab
Town is a web app you have to go to. Your work is on your desktop, spread across every app and screen you already have open.
Usage is metered
Credits are rationed across the tiers, so how much you can hand over depends on the balance you have left.
Personal only, never shared
Everyone gets their own Townie, but there is no shared teammate the whole team can call on in a channel and build on together.

It's on your desktop

Demi lives on your Mac, a keystroke away in whatever app you are already in. Town has no desktop app, so you go to it: a tab, an inbox, a chat.

Shared and personal

The whole team can call one Demi in Slack, and everyone also gets their own on their Mac. Town gives each person a Townie and nothing shared.

No credits to ration

Demi is predictable per seat, so you never budget the work you hand over. Town meters credits by tier and charges overage past your allowance.
