The first line is “We just launched the next iteration of Precip”. It carries a 1:21 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 35 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.
