Changed the name before official launch 🤣

I came up with an alternate name that made more sense, and I wasn't sure whether to change all my copy or leave it as-is.

Previous name: API-Apply
Current name: pre-screen.dev

Which to choose? 🤨

So I asked around. Very technical people had no trouble figuring out what API-Apply did. But this software will be used by less technical people.

And the new name was just much better at explaining what the tool does. My mom understood pre-screen.dev immediately, whereas API-Apply gave me more of a "that's nice, honey" response.

So I changed all the copy, server, emails, logos, and setup redirects 🤦‍♂️

Now it lives at https://pre-screen.dev 😇

    Good decision!
    I think you should rephrase this: "pre-screen.dev eliminates up to 80% of applicants for software development positions using our secret 👀 fully automated method."

    And also make this text stand out. It's a meaningful sentence, and the grey text made me skip it

      Hey! Cheers for the feedback 🙏

      How would you rephrase it? Would you focus on time saved instead?
