What this launch shows
The post went out from an account with 1K followers. It was seen 594.6 times over. For under 5K followers the median reach is 152.2 times the following.
This launch beat that by 3.9 times. It ranks 210 of 743 launches from accounts that size. Against every launch in the directory it sits at 1 times the median of 603K views.
Every response ran below the directory's usual rate: 8 bookmarks, 6 replies, 2 quotes and 10 reposts against 127 likes. The post was seen more than it was acted on, which is common for a launch that reaches past the people who care about the category.
It starts “Our agents completed around 100,000 tasks”. It carries a 45-second video against a directory median of 66 seconds.
Videos between 30 and 90 seconds have a median of 537K views in the directory. The copy runs 46 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 Monday. Launches posted on a Monday have a median of 567K views in the directory, and Friday is the strongest day at 647K.
Launching a product on X from a small account covers this: an account with 1K followers has to earn every view from outside its own following.
