๐Ÿ”จ What we shipped this week

  • Testimonials โ†’ social cards โ€” one click on any Kudos wall renders a share-ready 1200ร—630 image
  • Logbook (tool #7) โ€” embeddable changelogs with a "what's new" badge โ€” this newsletter's sibling
  • Pulse grew up โ€” custom events, conversion goals, UTM sources โ€” pulse("signup") is the whole API
  • Radar โ€” the launch feed this issue is distilled from, updated daily at shippies.ai/radar
  • Founding Captains โ€” first 10 subscribers lock $9/mo forever โ€” seats on the /open wall

๐Ÿ“Š The numbers, honestly

95 visits this week. $0 revenue. 1 registered user (the founder). 3 followers on X. 4 Reddit comments, 3 still standing. Every number is live on /open โ€” including, eventually, whichever one this newsletter moves.
