One observation I have regarding your homepage is that the message isn't very clear. The headline doesn't mention any benefits I get from using your software.

I think you should invest some time into improving your landing page and maybe you may see some traction. A good resource for this which I've bookmarked is here(1). Hope that helps.

Thanks. So you think it would work better if it would just say “save money”, rather than jump straight into the “what”?

To me, when I read the below, that just screams “save money”. But maybe I should do that conversation for the reader so to speak?

From benefits box: “Sometimes you need to index a huge amount of data, to accelerate just a few search queries. But building indexes and keeping them in hot storage can be expensive. HaystackDB builds only the indexes needed for sub-second query latency, across billions of keys, while keeping all your data in low-cost object storage like S3.”


I asked chatgpt for a headline based on your prompt and it gave me this:

HaystackDB: Swift Searches, Massive Savings - Index Billions, Store Smartly, Query in a Flash!”


Thanks! That headline is pretty good. :)
