Congrats on the launch.

Now put a giant, 30 second video of the product being used, directly below "Design by hand.Code by agent."

No one is clicking Get Started or Buy Now until they know what the product is, and a 30 second video is 100x better than any amount of text.

This comment was surprising to me.

I never considered that people want to watch a video in this day and age when they can try the real thing.

Perhaps I've fallen into that trap with the product [1] I'm building. I have a "Live Demo" button on the landing page and thought that would be enough? I'm going to reconsider...

I did have a video on for launch but removed it when I added CSS Studio itself to the page (check top right). Perhaps it can make a return though!
