Why this site exists

During a launch, search results fill with pages written that week by people who have never used anything. Almost none of them explain how the industry works, because explaining machinery does not sell a course.

These briefings do the opposite. Once you understand why twenty emails arrive in a fortnight, why the prize pool exists and why the product gets a new name each year, you can read any launch clearly — including this one.
