Cool product and a nice start.

Few suggestions:

- As Jeff pointed out, it wasn't immediately clear what this did. After playing around with it I got it, but stating it in plain words on the homepage would likely help your conversions.

- Similarly the "Apply for a subdomain now!" heading would be better suited being used to tout the benefit to the customer. Meaning, your visitors don't care about applying for a subdomain. They care about collaboratively completing a task (maybe) so gear your headlines and copy towards that.

- It wasn't clear that the logo leads you to a demo -- I had to read it here that that was the case.

- When I hover over the "enter a task" field in the demo my cursor turns into a circle with a line through it and I can't click. I'm not sure if that's intentional because the functionality isn't there yet or a bug with the implementation in my browser.

I signed up and am looking to seeing where this goes.

Congrats on launching!

Great feedback. Thx. The Subdomain is to see who could become a paying customer. We thought Matt.says.do and [email protected] could be simple way to communicate "on this channel (says.do) I need your help for these tasks".
