The “Solution” Space
How can we make a better experience that’s low cost & low-friction?
Tap all of the open materials out there
Build with pre-existing tools
Prompt more intimate groups
Easy to bootstrap

Results5,775 initially registered
Between 2,733 and 1,650 were engaged in the last week

We introduced an intermediary “ready-to-go” step
