> Is the intention just to build hype?

No, the intention is to build a waitlist to get feedback from target users. I'm following sort of a similar plan the Linear guys went with[1].

EDIT: It also gives me a lot of motivation to see people liking what I build and waiting to use it - which takes tremendous tall on me since I'm working on it 24/7 every day for the past 7 months.

I think my reason for commenting was because the way you comment makes it seem like the product is out to try / "check out my product!" but the product doesn't even exist.

It feels dishonest? Like a bait and switch.

That being said, good luck.

Oh, gotcha, I edited the comment to add that the app isn't out yet. Thanks.
