We were unable to find growth in any cohort.

Do you consider letting people actually see the site without login - it was a massive barrier to interest imho

Sorry to hear about your experience. I had the pain of shutting down my business a few years ago. It completely sucks, but it is also a relief.

Did you focus on any cohort or did you just experiment with lots of cohorts hoping one would take off? If you did focus, what if anything did you learn?

To clarify, growth of users.

Why did you need to find this? Was this a pressure from investors, or did you determine internally that growth wouldn't eventually take off, ever?

(One of the things that worries me a lot about taking venture capital is the pressure to grow quickly over growing well / sustainably, so I'm pretty curious about this....)

Growth as in $$$ or visitors of the site
