Most Tools Lose Me in the First 30 Seconds

I’ve realized something about myself recently.

If a tool doesn’t make sense in the first 30 seconds, I’m already halfway out.

Not because I don’t care,
But because I don’t want to figure it out.

Tried a simple dosha check on Tatsatt again today,
Nothing fancy, but I didn’t have to think about how to use it.

That made a difference.

It started instantly
No setup and confusion
Just a small interaction that led to a quick insight.

And I stayed.

That’s rare.

Most products try to impress.
Very few try to be easy.

As builders, we often ask:
“How do we add more value?”

But maybe the better question is:
“How quickly can someone feel it?”

Still thinking about this.

What makes you stay on a product after the first few seconds?
