Given no comments, I feel compelled to offer my pov: I question the earnestness of everything I see on this site.

Join 100+ coaches, is this true? FIVE STAR RATING, is this true? Pro is Limited time (11 left) is this true?

I'm not your target audience so I didn't want to come off too critical. That said, and given no other comments: - this is a tailwind site. - everything about this is some tailwind component

Getting something up super fast is not "wrong", that's why I hesitate to comment. What this makes me question though is whether you've talked to your customers and leaned into what they are about and how you're benefiting them.

I really don't like this "join 100+ coaches" because it feels like a lie! is it a lie? why are you lying to your customers? That's my takeaway.

I'm a developer too, and I genuinely applaud the bias toward action and shipping something. What I struggle with, and what I am talking on, is the actually doing the hard work - not the npm tailwind-whatever-the-fuck - of solving customer problems.
