What will go wrong on launch day

Fatal · they leave before they understandCostly · they understand and still leaveDrag · it works, and could work better
  1. FatalClarity · C5 failup to +12.6
    Potential problem
    “First viewport screenshot”

    A visitor who is immediately sold by the video has no way to act without scrolling.

    Proposalyou decide
    AAdd a "Pre-order Now" button immediately below the subheadline in the first viewport.
  2. CostlyAudience · A3 failup to +7.9
    Potential problem
    “"You filmed everything. You can't find any of it."”

    The solution is presented before the pain is validated, reducing the emotional hook for the buyer.

    Proposalsyou decide which, if any
    AMove the "You filmed everything..." section above the main headline.
    BIntegrate the pain into the subheadline: "Stop wasting hours scrubbing; AI that finds every scene..."
  3. CostlyProof · P2 failup to +7.9
    Potential problem
    “"Starred on GitHub by people working at..."”

    The logo wall implies corporate endorsement when it is actually just a list of employers of GitHub starers.

    Proposalyou decide
    AReplace the logo wall with 3 specific testimonials from those individuals naming their role and company.
  4. DragClarity · C2 pass
    Potential problem
    “"Turn hours of editing into minutes"”

    The outcome is a generic time-saving claim that lacks the punch of a specific, believable result.

    Proposalyou decide
    AReplace with a specific scenario: "Find a 5-second clip in 10TB of footage in seconds."

Don’t break these

The urgency in the pricing section ("134 pre-orders left") is a high-converting trigger.
The risk reversal ("Cancel anytime before shipping") removes the primary barrier to pre-ordering.
The distinction between the self-hosted and desktop app paths is logically structured and easy to grasp.

The four axes
