Notes from the demo run
AI-generatedWe signed into UpLaunch with Google and drove the whole submit-a-launch flow end to end: the Monday board, the empty Your launches dashboard, then the full submission form - Basics, markdown description with the Preview toggle, topic tagging, and all three launch tiers. The form is the product, and it holds up: every field is labelled, the tier cards restate what you get instead of linking away, and the free tier is the default rather than a hidden option.
- Google-only sign-in is the right call hereOne button, no password, and we were on /dashboard in about four seconds. For a weekly launch board where people submit once and leave, this removes the whole password step.
- Scarcity copy sits where the decision is made'Launching on the board for Sep 21 - Sep 27. 13 free slots left this week.' appears at the top of /submit and again above the tier picker. That is the strongest nudge on the page and you repeated it in exactly the right two places.
- The tier picker explains itselfEach of Standard / Premium / Top Spot lists its own benefits inline, and switching to Premium flips the CTA from 'Launch for free' to 'Continue to payment'. The state change makes the commitment obvious before anyone clicks.
- Markdown editor has a real PreviewThe Write/Preview toggle renders the description as it will appear on the product page - our bullet list came through correctly. Most indie directories ship a bare textarea.
- Empty dashboard is a dead end for returning users/dashboard shows 'No launches yet' plus one CTA. Since the board resets every Monday, a returning founder sees the same empty state with no hint of when their next free slot opens. Showing 'Next board opens Monday Sep 28 - 13 free slots' on that card would give the page a reason to be revisited.
- Logo and screenshots are optional but weightedThe Media section says launches with a logo and screenshots get noticeably more votes, yet both are marked optional and sit below the fold. Moving the logo upload next to the product-name field - or auto-pulling the favicon at the moment the URL is typed, which you already do on submit - would lift the average listing quality.
- /submit (final POST)·We filled the whole launch form but deliberately did not press Launch - we were not going to publish a real listing to your board as part of a test.
