What this launch shows

The post went out from an account with 6K followers. It was seen 15.8 times over. For 5K to 25K followers the usual multiple is 50.8, so the ranking model showed this to fewer strangers than it shows most launches.

It ranks 384 of 479 launches from accounts that size. Against every launch in the directory it is below the median of 688K views, at rank 1606 of 1981.

Saves led. 339 people bookmarked it, 36.4 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: 32 replies, 15 quotes, 23 reposts.

It starts “connectors for hermes agent”. It carries a 1:08 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 44 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 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.
