Product Journey

Building in the open.

Every feature, fix, and improvement — documented as we go. GiftPitch is built incrementally, with real charity fundraisers in mind.

v0.5 March 2026 Latest

AI regeneration, caching & PDF export

  • Per-section regeneration — a ↻ button on each output block lets you rewrite just that piece without touching the rest of the toolkit.
  • Persistent response caching — identical briefs are served instantly from a two-layer cache: in-memory for the current session, PostgreSQL for cross-user reuse after a brief has been saved. No extra Claude call either way.
  • jsPDF direct download — "Download PDF" exports a formatted A4 document immediately, no print dialog required. Includes the charity cause, generation date, branded headers, and page numbers.
  • Public changelog — this page. A curated product journal documenting every release, visible from the nav on every page.
v0.4 March 2026

Streaming, validation & copy buttons

  • Real-time streaming — Claude writes each section live via SSE, with animated "Writing…" badges per section.
  • Copy buttons — every section has a one-click ⎘ Copy button with clipboard API and a 2-second confirmation.
  • Server-side validation — every field is validated with Zod before anything reaches Claude, with clear inline errors.
  • Rate limiting — per-IP request throttling to keep the tool fair and available for everyone.
v0.3 March 2026 Planning Docs

Planning deck & roadmap video

  • Planning slide deck — a 7-slide internal presentation covering the product vision, architecture decisions, and the road ahead.
  • Planning video — an animated walkthrough of the GiftPitch roadmap, built with React and Framer Motion.
v0.2 March 2026 Showcase Assets

Showcase deck & marketing video

  • Showcase slide deck — a 7-slide presentation covering GiftPitch's value proposition, built for funders, press, and demo days.
  • Showcase video — a 60-second animated marketing video demonstrating the toolkit workflow end to end.
v0.1 March 2026 Foundation

The foundation — toolkit engine & save

  • Core toolkit generator — 8 questions produce a complete outreach toolkit: 2 emails, 3 subject lines, a LinkedIn DM, WhatsApp message, and 30-second call script.
  • UK charity voice — Claude prompting tuned for authentic, non-corporate copy that sounds like a real person wrote it on a Tuesday.
  • Save & share — toolkits are saved to a PostgreSQL database and assigned a unique shareable link.
  • Waitlist — email capture for early supporters, with a live signup counter on the landing page.
