Great question and something I learned is absolutely required with my first company. I didn't do it well then but now I make sure I stick to my schedule for tennis and other activities as seriously as I would stick to my meeting schedule. It helped me a lot once I realized that they are equal in importance to my long term success and my company's as well.

Excited to play with the API once it comes out

We use openAi extensively but keep an eye on all the others to see if/when they can perform better. Google Gemini looks like it could be interesting

Congrats on the launch, I enjoyed the fun explainer videos!

I personally find selling to be the harder of the two but they are intimately related to each other. Building a product with a great product/market fit will of course always be easier to sell then the alternative, but you still need to get those first early adopters!

I think for me this depends entirely on the format/medium you are communicating to be on. If it is an email than I am likely to give it more time and want to get the whole picture, but if it is on a website or ad then short and sweet and grab my attention quickly or lose it.

For me it was the classic "scratch my own itch" situation. I had been an avid fantasy reader and a big gamer more of my life but was always looking for the solo adventure I could do when I didn't have friends online or able to do a D&D session. I was always looking for that fix of story+choice that I got while play D&D and some video games, but really struggled to get in a more relaxed...
