Our startup is giving users the opportunity to learn by experiencing life in someone else’s shoes. I am not able to share more details yet, but I'd be happy to answer any questions you email to me at vedad.me@gmail.com

Vague in some ways is OK, but one thing you should spell out initially is where you have to be to take advantage of this. It sounds like an in-person thing, so unless you want the majority of applicants to be disappointed after investing interest, you should clarify that participants need to be in a certain area, e.g. NY, Seattle, SF, Kansas (good luck with that one...).

We just updated our landing page. Thanks!

I imagine it could be something really great, but lack of any details (including people behind the project) doesn't help to build trust. Please, show us something more.

Hi Arek. Please email me and I will gladly send you more details about our startup and team members.

Could be interesting, but the description is far too vague. If giving more details ruins the whole thing, it suggests the experience is probably too shallow.

Hi phaemon, I am not able to share more details publicly (yet), but if you are interested to learn more about our startup or our team, feel free to email me. We are working on something really cool.
