squint.
For indie makers

You shipped the product. The page was the afterthought.

Maker pages fail differently from funded-startup pages: nobody wrote the copy twice. A Squint teardown reads yours like a stranger with eight seconds and a credit card - and hands you lines you can paste in tonight.

The leaks we find over and over on maker pages:

  • The feature list that never lands a punch. Six bullets of what it does, zero sentences on what changes for the buyer. Features are evidence; the claim comes first.
  • Pricing hidden like a secret. Buyers who have to hunt for the price assume they can't afford it - or worse, that it's "contact us". Solo products win by being refreshingly explicit.
  • The empty-proof fold. No numbers, no users, no testimonials yet? There are honest proof substitutes - a real changelog, a public roadmap, your own usage - and pages that fake it instead read as fake.
  • One page doing four jobs. Docs, blog, support form, and sales pitch stacked on the homepage. The sales page gets one job: the next click.
  • Screenshots at the wrong zoom. A full-app screenshot at 30% scale communicates "complicated". Crop to the one screen that makes someone want the rest.

See the standard on a page most makers know: teardown #001 reviews Gumroad's homepage - the platform half the indie web sells through, held to the same five-part method your page would be.
