#4SSL warning - You attempted to reach www.glancedat.com, but instead you actually reached a server identifying itself as *.nodejitsu.com. This may be caused by a misconfiguration on the server or by something more serious. An attacker on your network could be trying to get you to visit a fake (and potentially harmful) version of www.glancedat.com.

#5"(the first 30 days are free!)"
Why? I don't understand the arbitrary 30 day limit, or the need to be charging at all for the basic service. It seems like the best way to gain adoption for a product like this is word of mouth. As a totally free product, they could get thousands or tens of thousands of users in a short time period. Real people having positive experiences with a product is the best marketing there is.
The strength of glance seems be design and UI. Charging a monthly fee doesn't seem to be the best way to take advantage of that strength. Nice UI products do best when they have lots of people using them. I feel like it's too much trouble to set it up knowing that I'll have to make a purchase decision after 30 days, (not to mention that it doesn't say what the price will ultimately be). This looks like a cool product, but this might not be the right business model.

#6I like this! It would look REALLY good as an open source project, not sure if I would pay for something like this. Focus on finding power users of multiple web apps and see what they need and promote it from that app outwards.
Keep up the good work!

Maybe this is their monetization strategy. Instead of incurring the high costs of supporting a large load of unpaid users and then trying to monetize the user base from there - maybe they want to get to revenue quickly.

I think it's up for debate as to whether you should test pricing in the MVP stage. In this case, I think it's in the best interest to leave pricing out of the question and first inquire as to whether people find it useful.
