Roadmap

First priority: faster deploys

Today, provisioning a new instance can take several minutes - server spin-up, install, and config. That delay affects time-to-first-message and the first impression new users get.

Our planned approach: pre-deploying

We plan to pre-deploy capacity in some cases to cut that wait:

• We would keep a small pool of pre-provisioned instances (or pre-warmed capacity) in regions we use.
• When a new subscriber signs up (or triggers deploy), we would assign from that pool when possible instead of starting from zero.
• "In some cases" would mean when demand and capacity allow (e.g. region, plan type). Not every deploy would hit a pre-deployed instance, but a portion would and see much shorter deploy times.

Benefits: quicker time-to-value, a better first impression, and the ability to scale the approach as we grow - more regions, Mac later, and beyond.

What's next

• Pre-deploying – building the pool and assignment flow (we'll work on this next)
• More regions – expand pre-deploy coverage
• Mac plan - iOS integrations, Shortcuts, and the Apple ecosystem
• Faster channel setup - smoother WhatsApp, Telegram, Discord onboarding
