For too long, we've accepted that the flying is a fundamentally more expensive form of movement. I reject that reality. Today we're announcing our $37M Series A, led by @Greenoaks, to build a world where all movement is in the air.
How it compares
A launch means nothing against no one. These are the launches it is actually comparable to, and where this one sits among them.
| Compared with | Launches | Median views | This one | Rank |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Funding announcement the same kind of announcement | 247 | 419K | 1.1x | 119 |
| under 5K followers accounts of a similar size | 627 | 227K | 2.1x | 226 |

What this launch shows
Airbound posted this from an account with 4K followers and reached 116.9 times that many people. Accounts of that size usually reach 161.4 times their following, so this is in the normal range.
It ranks 226 of 627 launches from accounts that size. Against every launch in the directory it is below the median of 688K views, at rank 1186 of 1981.
Likes led, 2K at 38.7 per 10,000 views against a median of 26.8, with the heavier signals closer to usual: 506 bookmarks, 121 replies, 88 quotes. A like is a reaction. The post was enjoyed more than it was kept.
The post opens with “For too long, we've accepted that the flying is a fundamentally more expensive form of movement”. It carries a 34-second video against a directory median of 65 seconds. Videos between 30 and 90 seconds have a median of 603K views in the directory.
The copy runs 43 words, about the usual length for a launch post here, where the median is 41. There is a link in the body, which costs a post some reach and buys it a place to send people.
It went out on a Tuesday. Launches posted on a Tuesday have a median of 651K views in the directory, and Friday is the strongest day at 880K.
How to announce a funding round covers this: the round is the news and the post has to turn it into customers and hires. For the next one, read launching a product on X from a small account: an account with 4K followers has to earn every view from outside its own following.
X analytics explained is the guide for it: what each of these numbers means, with benchmarks by account size. Every launch we track in Robotics is on that vertical's directory page.
