Field notes
The homepage lays out a three-step workflow: join a nearby cluster, plan a conversion with an AI coach, then track parts and milestones across eight phases. It advertises free Primer and Simulator 3D experiences plus feasibility, cost-estimation, and learning tools; the Primer is described as best on a laptop or desktop. Build listings and full logs are partly gated, while the page says selected cluster information cannot yet carry into onboarding automatically. Several build and cluster panels were marked as loading.
