Who does Sergey Vdovenko compete with?
The rivals identified
Nemeses(1)
Alarmy dominates the alarm niche with a massive user base and aggressive feature set that directly challenges the target's utility-focused value proposition.
Contenders(3)

Directly competes for the 'desktop/home screen' real estate that the target app aims to occupy.
While focused on event tracking, it competes for the same 'time management' screen real estate as the target app.
A direct functional competitor in the utility space that targets users looking for basic, no-frills alarm functionality.
Competes for the user's attention by gamifying time management, a key area of interest for the target's audience.
New entrants(1)
