Launch plan

Open release, sponsor funding, and paid operations move together.

The launch is blocked on public repo assets, install docs, support rules, sponsor paths, runbooks, and test evidence.

Public repo

Trust anchor

Repository, license, contribution guide, security model, install guide, and hardware matrix.

Install

Fresh-machine path

Installer, first-run policy, recovery path, and validation checklist before the install CTA becomes final.

Operations

Support without capture

Sponsor page, support intake, appliance waitlist, and MSP pilot path with clear support boundaries.

Proof

Evidence before scale

Demo, screenshots, public test summary, recovery drill, and first runbook execution report. Screenshots should use realistic synthetic values and note the claim each image supports.

Go/no-go

Do not broad-launch until install, rollback, support redaction, and public evidence are linked.

Technical preview

Share with selected technical operators only after install scope, redaction rules, and recovery expectations are clear.

Target proof

Successful install reports, route/DNS evidence, recovery drill results, support boundaries, and operator reports.

Domain and hosting

Verify production hosting, canonical metadata, sitemap, and public host routing before broad launch.

Security audit

Security checks report no unresolved high-severity issues before broad launch.

Risk control

Keep anonymity claims bounded, avoid VPN-only framing, and tie every paid offer to operational value.

Publication hygiene

Keep public-facing launch copy focused on operator value, product readiness, privacy limits, support boundaries, and evidence.

Public story

Keep public-facing launch copy focused on operator value, product readiness, privacy limits, support boundaries, and evidence.

Artifact hygiene

Published assets should avoid private notes, local paths, credentials, temporary hosts, and machine-specific assumptions.

Launch evidence

The launch plan needs screenshots for install, operations, and proof gates.

Redacted Gateway dashboard showing route, DNS, tunnel, device, and backup status cards
Proof Operator posture.

Shows the visible state behind launch claims about routing, DNS, tunnel, devices, and backup.

Redacted Gateway routing policies screen
Install Policy path.

Shows the route and fallback policy surface that should be proven before install promotion.

Redacted Gateway backup and recovery screen
Operations Recovery path.

Shows the rollback and backup surface that keeps paid operations bounded.

Next action

Collect public launch evidence.

The launch should not scale until install, recovery, privacy posture, and support claims have proof attached.
