Roadmap
Remove the login wall from the core product and create SEO-optimized city pages so journalists can discover CheckGres via search and immediately see value without signing up.
Give journalists the tools they need to use CheckGres data in their stories — export, historical analysis, and citation. This phase makes CheckGres actually useful for the primary ICP's daily workflow.
Enable revenue through a freemium billing system and increase distribution through embeddable widgets. This phase makes CheckGres financially sustainable and creates a growth loop through journalist story embeds.
Scale from dozens of manually-entered municipalities to thousands via automated data pipelines. Add map visualization and score change alerts. This phase transforms CheckGres from a prototype into a comprehensive national database.
