What this launch shows

Stardrift posted this from an account with 3K followers and reached 42.6 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 389 of 627 launches from accounts that size. Against every launch in the directory it is below the median of 688K views, at rank 1546 of 1981.

Replies led. 65 of them, 5.6 per 10,000 views against a median of 2.3.

The post started a conversation, and the ranking model pays for conversation with reach in the hours after. Bookmarks came in at 200, reposts at 32.

The post opens with “Today we’re launching a mobile app that will make your next trip magical”, a first-person opening that the founder-account launches in the directory use most.

It carries a 1:06 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 49 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 Thursday. Launches posted on a Thursday have a median of 724K 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 giving people something to reply to: the conversation is what carried this one.

X analytics explained is the guide for it: what each of these numbers means, with benchmarks by account size. Every launch we track in Consumer AI is on that vertical's directory page.
