Visually the blue buttons on the teal gradient doesn't go well, and your top menu links blend into the background image too much, also the gradient on your image "All those files" makes it unreadable.
Concept wise, I like the idea I just don't myself using it as a stand alone app. Would be more interesting if you could hook it into existing chat software to create interactive archives.

On first glance I wasn't entirely sure if it was an integration (into gmail, for example) or a standalone product.
As I scrolled down the page I started to think it was a standalone product, but then there seemed to be this chat-centric layout which just confused me (as I'm used to dropbox where most of the real-estate is occupied by the files and their meta data). And then my mind went back to "wait...why am I logging with a google account?... maybe it is just a plugin for Gchat or something...thus the unbranded chat-centric layout...
Then I kept scrolling and the next section clarified things. But then I left the page thinking "My team shares gigabyes of files, thousands of them...how could I possibly store all that stuff this way, with a chat log that goes on for miles?" So I lost interest.
Hope that helps.

When I landed on staply.co, I did not know what the site about so was not immediately able to understand the description on first page. "A better way to share files and links ....", I personally liked the sentence on the second page, "Instead of email and shared folders use Staply when you want to share files and find them later. ".

It looks like a chat/im web client with robust file and link support. It reminds me of Slack at first glance (http://slack.com)
Also, you have a typo on your page:
> Attach it. Send it. Never loose it.
change "loose" to lose.

Instead of the picture in the first slide, could you put the screenshot from the second slide? Maybe it will be more clear than just "A better way to share files and links".

So, it's like chatrooms where you can upload files?

No. My first thought was "Will you misuse my personal details if I sign in with google?"

It's not immediately obvious, but I've seen much worse landing pages.

Is it just me? or I see this website over and over and oooover again? :/

no, not really. file sharing and group chat, i suppose, but it's not clear what makes it special.

Evernote with chat?
Hello HN,
We've recently allowed a public access to our product https://staply.co/
Is it clear what Staply is from our landing page?
