The top of Pied Piper's feed: a seed round, told to the people waiting for it.

How it works

Write it once. It shows up where people look.

1. Write the post

Give it a title, a one-line summary and a cover image, then write with bold, italics and links. It stays a draft until you publish.

2. Publish it

It goes live on your feed with a page of its own you can link to, and every place below picks it up. There is nothing to copy.

3. Email the big ones

For the posts worth an email, one click drafts a broadcast from the post for you to check and send.

Where it shows up

Four places a post turns up.

Nobody has to remember your feed exists.

Middle-out compression is real

Our storage nodes now pack files tighter than anything we benchmarked against.

We have been quiet about the compression work, so here is where it stands.

On their status page

Every signup's status page has a What's new card. It appears with your first post and lists the one you pinned first, then your newest.

On your Launch page

Add the Updates block, and a page you built months ago still has something new to say.

On your own site

One snippet puts your latest posts on the site you already have. You choose the heading and how many show.

Wherever the link is shared

Paste a post link into X, LinkedIn or a group chat and its cover and summary become the preview.

The details

Keeps your list warm until launch.

A waitlist that hears nothing for months forgets why it signed up. Every post also gets these.

Followed in any reader

The feed has its own RSS address, linked beside the heading, for the people who read everything in one app.

Fix it after it is live

Edit a published post and the feed, its page and every card show the corrected version.

Take a post back

Move a post back to draft and it leaves the feed and its link stops working. You can also delete it outright.

In your brand

The feed and every post page use the colors, font and corners from your Brand Kit, with no theme to set up.

Found in search

Search engines can index your feed and each post page, and an empty feed is never indexed, so nobody lands on a blank page.

A webhook when you publish

Get a webhook the moment a post goes live, to share it in your community or anywhere else you announce things.

In the docs:The Updates block on your Launch page Embed your updates on your site The update.published webhook

Connected

Where your posts are read.

The pages and emails a post reaches, and the embed that carries it to your own site.

Questions

Before you write your first post.

What is a build in public changelog?

A running list of short posts about what you shipped and what changed, shared while the product is still being made. For a waitlist, it gives people a reason to stay interested and to tell others before launch day.

Where is my updates feed?

At your page address followed by /updates, like piedpiper.launchlist.page/updates. Share on your Updates screen shows the address, with a button that opens it.

What should a build in public update say?

One change and why it matters to the person waiting: what you shipped, what it will let them do, and what comes next. A screenshot as the cover image gives the post something to show when it is shared.

How often should I post an update?

Whenever something someone on your list would care about changes: a feature that works, a date that moved, a milestone you reached. A short post every week or two keeps people more interested than a long one every few months.

Are updates included on the Free plan?

Yes. Writing and publishing posts, the feed, RSS, post pages and the What's new card are all on the Free plan. Search indexing and emailing a post to your list start on the Collect plan.
