		notatoad on April 9, 2014 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Atlassian Valued at $3.3 Billion HipChat isn't like SnapChat though. If you go to their homepage, right up in the header they've got a link to their pricing page. You don't have to wonder who they're selling you to or what convoluted monetization schemes they have, Atlassian makes money because people pay them for a service that they think is valuable. Which is refreshing.

I thought the implicit comparison was more to WhatsApp, which also directly charges users (SnapChat is, despite the name, not really a "chat" app).
