Numbers ⌃⇧2 then N · Copy for Slack

Three notes on the pricing page, in the order you'd fix them.

The pricing page goes live Thursday. Drag over it, drop a number on each problem, type a line for each. The numbers count themselves.

Here's some incoming feedback (3 items) 🧵
  1. Most popular sits on Business. Move it to Team, the plan we want to sell.
  2. Annual hides the saving. Say "2 months free" next to the toggle.
  3. Enterprise has no button. Add Talk to sales.

Sticky note C · Copy for Claude

An empty state that tells people what to do next.

A new account lands on a page with nothing on it. Press where the fix belongs and the note sits beside it with an arrow. One paste carries the picture and the note.

1. Dead end on day one. Add Import from CSV here. Most teams arrive with a spreadsheet.
I'll add an Import from CSV button to EmptyProjects.tsx, beside New project, opening the importer you already have. Want the diff?
Highlighter H · Copy the list for Linear

Copy that says what it does.

Highlight the words, number them, and say what they should be. Copy just the list when the issue tracker doesn't need the picture.

  1. Nobody says deprovision. Call it Delete workspace.
  2. Say what goes: projects, files and comments. And say who gets told.

Redact X · Copy for Slack

A bug report you can post in any channel.

The invoice shows a customer's email and card. Tape over both, circle the wrong total, post it. Redaction is burned into the pixels, so nothing is left under the tape.

  1. Total ignores the tax line. Should be $1,296.00, and the customer was charged $1,200.

Voice note · the mic in the capture toolbar

Say it while you're looking at it.

Some feedback is quicker said than typed. Talk over the capture and North Star writes it down on your Mac. Only the text is kept. The audio is deleted once it's transcribed.

Country comes last, but it changes every field above it. Move it to the top, and fill in the state from the postcode so nobody has to pick it.
GIF ⌃⇧2 then GIF · Spotlight on the pointer

Some bugs only make sense when they move.

The new menu flickers as the pointer crosses to Pricing. Three seconds of GIF shows it better than a paragraph, and it plays inline wherever you drop it.

Menu closes and reopens when you move from Product to Pricing. Needs a short close delay.
Video with your voice and camera · Number while you record

Walk through the flow. The notes write themselves.

Talk through signup like a new customer would. Click Number when something's off and a badge drops on the screen. Each badge's note is written from what you said around it, with its timestamp.

  2. [0:41] Verifying your email forgets the plan you picked.
  3. [1:08] The welcome tour sits on top of the Invite button.
Share link · one click from any capture

One link for the people who aren't in your Slack.

The agency redesigning pricing works in email. Send them a link. It opens on a clean page with the picture and the numbered list beside it, and unfurls wherever it's pasted.

02Record

“Got a sec?”
On the record.

Record a call · Zoom, Meet, Teams or a phone call · no bot

The call ends. The quotes are ready.

Press record when a customer walks through the new checkout. Your Mac's audio and your mic are transcribed on the Mac, each line marked You or Participants. Paste it wherever you're writing the fix.

Where did they hesitate? Quote them, then suggest the smallest fix for each.
No total before Continue. "There's no total anywhere on this screen." Show the amount due beside the button.
Fear of being charged. "I'm nervous it charges me straight away." Add "Cancel any time" under it.
"Seats" is jargon. "I didn't know seats meant people." Say "20 people" instead.
