I do not dissagree with you, the hacker news community is, of course used to play with new ideas showcased here, but after reading stuff from Eric Rise and Steve Blank and .co I decided to go after a "Minimal MVP" so to speak.

Hopefully no one is feling tricked by the title, if so, I'm sorry and beg your pardon.

I think the easy solution here would be to adjust your wording a little on the landing page to tell me I'm signing up to hear more information and be informed when it launches - not that I'm signing up to "get started". You have saved my email I gave you so you can keep me updated right? That's not clear in your text either but you really should be doing it and letting people know that you are.

In terms of feedback, well I tried to sign up so I guess that tells you I liked it a lot, can you elaborate on how far along it actually is? Are the various screenshots current development status or are they just mockups at the moment? Your blog only has one post and it just shows a photo of a laptop on this landing page. I'm not a big fan of the tagline, it seems really convoluted - reusable checklists for teams is much closer to what it should be I think. Also I spotted a small typo, "Create beautiful and simple checklists that is easy to maintain and...", is should be are. :)

You should put a sign up button under each of the package options too, and use your analytics to see where people sign up. But really, most importantly, your website tells me your product is ready to get started with, I tried and now I don't know where in the process of being built it is. I really suggest clearing it up. :)

That's true, I do not want to come across as a email gatherer. I have added a short description below the email input form for now, I need to go thru all wording to see how I can avoid confusion moving forward.

The current screenshots are the current development, I'v linked to a vide I recorded today as a way to clear up a the idea and workflow used in the app [0].

I will certainly fix the blog, I have no excuses for not updating it. =)

About the tag line, I am using "Reusable checklists for teams" or do you mean on the that I should remove the second heading on the landing page?

The typo is fixed, thanks!

Much clearer! Great to see it's at that stage already, the video makes it much easier to see how far along you are. Yep for the tag line I meant the second one, sorry that wasn't clear - I can see why you want a secondary one but the first one is much stronger.
