Not SaaS apps - landing pages. 10, in 30 days.

wat.

That feels like something that AI should be able to spit out in 30 minutes. Or, frankly, not even be needed at all. If the info that drove these pages already came from product discussions, and you've spent a month having AI sort through all the info, why even do a landing page? Just launch to the people whose documented problems you are solving.

Haha love it, and that’s fair. Still figuring out what works, it’s meant to be an experiment more than anything. Could very well be a major failure, but won’t know until I try right?

I’ve spent so much money and time building full end-to-end products before that got little to no traction, so trying the validate-first approach this time. Closer to a waitlist play than anything fancy. Borrowed the format from Pieter Levels (12 startups in 12 months).

Sounds like you’ve had success launching direct without waitlists. Would love to hear about your experience, what you did differently. Always trying to learn.
