Oh wow I love it! Love the simplicity of installation — it's definitely a trend that's going up lately, but I'm surprised to see that, since Stripe made it mainstream back in the previous decade, it's... not very very common to have products that are installable with a code embed 1) Can you talk a bit more (to a non-technical person) about how the code embed works 2) As a suggestion, I think you'd do well in no/low-code communities or products. Webflow is a tool I use so I believe it'd be a success there, since the average Webflow user doesn't know how to code advanced stuff, but they know Webflow has a 'code embed' where they can slap a few lines (i.e. Fastcomments' snippet) and stuff works

Thank you! Low-code communities/products makes up a good portion of our existing userbase indeed (Wordpress, Webflow, the like). Webflow, Zendesk, Shopify, Salesforce plugins are planned. We currently have an awesome WP plugin. The other half of our customers are using tools like Gatsby. Here's a blog post from the first month of building the product. Over a year later, lots has changed (I'm also a better writer, sorry!): https://blog.winricklabs.com/(1-24-2020)-how-fastcomments-was-built.html https://blog.winricklabs.com/(1-24-2020)-how-fastcomments-wa...

    Webflow - yes, that's the plan! Spending lots of time on documentation currently. I looked at price unlock. I saw you start with providing an email and backed out, didn't understand what kind of information I'd have to provide or get at first glance. Good idea though.

      Sorry didn't get that fully! What do you mean 'backed out'? I'm announcing Price Unlock but collecting emails at the end for those that want to be updated.
