What this launch shows

General Robotics posted this from an account with 3K followers and reached 17.2 times that many people. Accounts of that size usually reach 161.4 times their following.

This one did not get far past the people who already followed it. It ranks 463 of 627 launches from accounts that size. Against every launch in the directory it is below the median of 688K views, at rank 1698 of 1981.

Reposts led, 57 at 10.6 per 10,000 views against a median of 2.5.

A repost is an endorsement without a comment, and a launch with an unusual repost rate was being passed along on purpose. Bookmarks: 154. Replies: 13.

The post opens with “What if a robot could take a goal and determine how to achieve it”. It carries a 2:20 video against a directory median of 65 seconds.

Videos over 90 seconds have a median of 651K 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 Wednesday. Launches posted on a Wednesday have a median of 721K 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.
