What this launch shows

From an account with 3K followers, this reached 108.4 times the account's own following. The median for under 5K followers is 161.4 times, so this one stayed closer to home than most.

It ranks 268 of 627 launches from accounts that size. Against every launch in the directory it is below the median of 688K views, at rank 1280 of 1981.

Replies led. 137 of them, 4.1 per 10,000 views against a median of 2.3.

The post started a conversation, and the ranking model pays for conversation with reach in the hours after. Bookmarks came in at 635, reposts at 147.

The first line is “Introducing Atlas”, the same first word as 25% of launches in the directory. It carries a 1:01 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 45 words, about the usual length for a launch post here, where the median is 41.

The body carries a link, so the post had somewhere to send the reader and paid a little reach for it. It went out on a Thursday. Launches posted on a Thursday have a median of 724K views in the directory, and Friday is the strongest day at 880K.

Launching a product on X from a small account covers this: an account with 3K followers has to earn every view from outside its own following. For the next one, read attributing signups to a launch: a save rate this high is the number to follow into the product.

Giving people something to reply to is the guide for it: the conversation is what carried this one. Every launch we track in Robotics is on that vertical's directory page.
