The first line is “Today we release Open d1: two open-weight multimodal models in our d1 decision model family”, a first-person opening that the founder-account launches in the directory use most.
It carries an image and no video. 92% of launches in the directory carry a video, so this is the rarer choice, and the few image launches that travelled did it on the strength of the image.
The copy runs 50 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.
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 giving people something to reply to: the conversation is what carried this one.
Whether a launch needs a video is the guide for it: 99% of the launches in the directory carry one, and the guide is about when the 1% is the right call. Every launch we track in Frontier Lab is on that vertical's directory page.
