Congrats on getting to this place. Wishing you success in the long run. But, if I can be honest for a second, there are some pretty rough spots here.

First, we're all (or, almost all) using AI and aware of its power. But this site is just so clearly the pure, unfiltered output of an LLM. A human touch on the messaging and positioning would go a long way. The now-common saying: if you can't be bothered to write something once, why should you expect humans to read it? The marketing copy and platform comparisons use so many words to say very little of value.

Second, the main video is pretty cringe. The voice alternates between shouting at me and seductively whispering.

Third, project management systems are a burned-over district. There are a million competing platforms out there. This is hard to solve and bold promises like "Replace Jira + Slack + Miro with one canvas" just sound preposterously over-the-top.

Fourth, the "Built for the people who decide" section looks like quotes but surely those are just AI-generated fake testimonials right? I'm already skeptical of the product but that really kills it for me.

On the plus side, it seems you've zeroed in on your niches which is very small, nimble startups and dev teams. Maybe that will help.

Sorry,l I hope you take this in the spirit it's given which is honest feedback and I truly do wish you well and hope to see this refine and succeed.

The pricing page with "12 sold today!" comes across as incredibly fake and possibly illegally so.

Also amusing to badge the Pro as "popular" when the "numbers" show it isn't.

Then there are weird choices like making AI transcription a selling point but with a limit of just 4 per month on the highest tier.

Agree with all of this. The voice over in the video was unbearable, sounded like a cartoon dog in a preschool kids' show.
