I'm not sure why my advice should be ignored. I run an on-call rotation at GitHub and could definitely be a customer. One of their examples regards Splunk and PagerDuty, both of which we utilize and know the learning curve is up there anything to reduce the time needed to respond to an incident would be great. At first glance you could make a case this may be a product from Stripe. When I am evaluating a product and it doesn't showcase a lot of creativity I have a hard time taking it serious or recommending it to colleagues. I'd also imagine most of the audience they are marketing to _has_ heard of Stripe. For more constructive criticism, the landing page is full of skeleton UI and it's hard to imagine what I will get out of the integrations. I realize it's a mockup, but I'd imagine you already know what would be in those boxes. Instead of the 3 gray boxes, show me as a user what I will see. Is it a summary of the integration? Is it an individual issue or pull request? Is it the most recent activity for that integration? I'm also not a huge fan of the letter spacing site wide, I think removing it looks like an immediate vast improvement when removed.

Hi dewski! Once again I really appreciate your honest feedback! I find it very valuable! I agree the letter-spacing was too much (sometimes Sketch specs do not translate well into CSS and I think this was a casualty of that!) I also agree that the screenshots are not sufficient and more context and real-world use cases need to be included, we're working on that! I hope in the very near future you'll be able to see these additions and maybe even take part in the private beta in which it definitely sounds like you'd give us great feedback! If you haven't signed up for the beta waiting list please feel free to email me at james [at] getnifty.io and I'll be sure to reach out to you as soon as we're ready for our first, early users! Thanks again dewski!

> showcase a lot of creativity I have a hard time taking it serious This isn't constructive criticism. "Showcase a lot of creativity" is vague. Do you take products like Dropbox seriously? Their front-end looks like default Bootstrap.
