What this launch shows

The post went out from an account with 14K followers. It was seen 75.4 times over. The median for 5K to 25K followers is 50.8 times, and this sits near it.

It ranks 176 of 479 launches from accounts that size. Against every launch in the directory it sits at 1.5 times the median of 688K views.

Saves led. 3K people bookmarked it, 31.1 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: 242 replies, 82 quotes, 107 reposts. One bookmark for every 0.6 likes is a high ratio and usually means a product people intend to try.

It starts “AI is making marketers lazy”. It carries a 1:17 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 47 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 Wednesday. Launches posted on a Wednesday have a median of 721K views in the directory, and Friday is the strongest day at 880K.

Stealth mode startups covers this: a first public post carries years of work, and that story is the asset. For the next one, read attributing signups to a launch: a save rate this high is the number to follow into the product.
