Well known sites/apps that you think would be a good fit for Elixir?

Etsy just posted a job on Devtalk (link) and my first thought was that Elixir/Erlang would be a good fit for them since they’re quite a high-traffic site.

Have you ever thought similar? Any well known/popular sites or apps you think would be a good fit for Elixir?

My irrational belief is that almost any SaaS can be cloned in Elixir and be a profitable business simply because it will be so cheap to run and develop.
