Why would this be a subscription? It could just be a standalone app for $10 bucks and you'll probably get more lifetime revenue that way compared to having a subscription, because in a year more people will buy for $10 than will subscribe and stay subscribed for long enough to overcome that revenue.

> Why would this be a subscription? Because more monies. Could also make it hard to unsubscribe. Like swedish insurance, where it needs 3+ hours waiting on the line to get to some supporter who can unsubscribe.

OP here. Thanks, that's good to hear. I got journalists at a couple of the big newspaper players here in my country (Norway) to purchase subscriptions, and after seeing these pop up in articles rather often, I felt that I had sold myself short with the $5 monthly fee. One of them (VG.no), is like the 2nd biggest site in Norway, with 70 million visits a month. I guess I'm bad at business.

Took me 2 scrolls to find an image probably generated by your tool. https://www.tek.no/nyheter/nyhet/i/KnWn0G/ai-flause-for-goog... You probably should make a personal account which limits the amount of images you can generate a month (10?) and a business account which offers unlimited generation but for a steep price.

Yes, I would recommend showing two images (before/after) instead of the video. You could do more interactive stuff, like the common interface of moving a slider on the "before" image to reveal the "after" image. And that's nice, but it should be supplemental to the two images. But take this advice with a grain of salt - after all, the video did cause me to spend more time on your site than if two images had immediate…

OP here. Thanks for the advice. I have been considering a few different options. Perhaps I could have a preloaded screenshot with the UI already initialised, so I immediately can show off the functionality? I don't know what is the best approach.

Upside to you is some karma points. Downside is harming their business, right there on the launch post. Why? Just quietly notify them offline.
