It's not.

Macsumption.
So also, if it's not for all platforms (web?) then please, platform should be in the title.

#7The site lets you download the app, run the app, log in to GitHub, and _THEN_ asks you for a beta invite code. There's almost no info about it on it's homepage, so why post the link at all?

#9I signed up for the beta because I always like trying out new stuff. But I'm lost on how this would be better than just opening github.com in my browser.
I guess the main value-add I could see would be notifications when people open issues, send PRs, or fork repos of mine. Does this app display them?

#10Is this a fully native app, or is it storing my stuff on your server?
Can I back up tags / whatever that I make, and will they sync between multiple devices?
Is the app open-sourced? Will it be? Are you planning to charge for the app? For premium features?
Most importantly, why are the features you're providing going to improve my experience with GitHub?
These are all questions I'd expect the landing page to answer.
