You can't use it yet because what I deem an MVP for this is far-away from what I have right now. At the moment, the tech is probably 80% of the way to what would be in a v1, but the design/experience is maybe 20% of the way there.

Getting this to a proper v1 requires a design exercise that's at least 2/3 months long, during which time I need a full-time designer and a full-time lawyer.

I don't think that I absolutely need a lawyer as a co-founder, but I do think that having one would definitely be great. (Which is why I tried that.)

If I were you'd I'd push to try and ship anything, it looks brilliant and I'm sure if some people try it you'll have the push to keep going.
I think you're probably right.

But, sadly, I have neither the energy nor the financial liberty to do so, after the nearly one year of full-time work that it took to get here. (The demo isn't just a mockup; the tech that powers it is production-ready, which is why it took so long; which might've been a mistake, but that's another story.)
