What this launch shows

Featherless AI posted this from an account with 6K followers and reached 17.9 times that many people. Accounts of that size usually reach 50.8 times their following.

This one did not get far past the people who already followed it. It ranks 373 of 479 launches from accounts that size. Against every launch in the directory it is below the median of 688K views, at rank 1578 of 1981.

Saves led. 2K people bookmarked it, 166.2 per 10,000 views against a directory median of 11.7. A bookmark is a plan to come back, and it tracks signups and demo requests more closely than a like does.

The rest: 31 replies, 21 quotes, 133 reposts. One bookmark for every 0.7 likes is a high ratio and usually means a product people intend to try.

The post opens with โ€œlove jev, but upset itโ€. It carries a 50-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 48 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 Friday. Launches posted on a Friday have a median of 880K views in the directory, which makes it the strongest day.

Attributing signups to a launch covers this: a save rate this high is the number to follow into the product. For the next one, read developer marketing strategy: developers try before they read, so the post has to let them.

X analytics explained is the guide for it: what each of these numbers means, with benchmarks by account size. Every launch we track in Developer Tool is on that vertical's directory page.
