Hey PH!
I m Roy, one of the makers of Surf a research copilot for crypto folks. Super excited for our first launch.

I ve read a ton of guides but would love real advice from makers:

1. Expectations / forecasting

Do you usually have a sense of how many participants will show up on launch day or a rough range of upvotes/comments? Any rules of thumb you ve used (e.g., % of Teaser followers who visit, comment to upvote ratios, or targets you set for the first 4 hours)?

Hey,
Artem here. I left Meta in Apr 2024 to fully dive into realm of GenAI. I knew back then that with the pace of development the distribution wins, not the product. So I spent a year cracking SEO and wasting tens of thousands on ads so you don't have to. Happy to share my learnings and answer your questions.
Some stats. As of now our app has over 200k registered users with up to 700 joining daily.
Before AI summaries we've reached 200k monthly visits on the website.
And then crashed hard in the past few weeks.
We also iterated on product like crazy and learned a ton.
Ask away!
