Front Desk — 2026 H2 Editorial & Launch Calendar (DRAFT for review)
Weekly Friday newsletter ("Front Desk") + LinkedIn/X repurpose, Jul 17 → year-end (24 issues). Backfilled from 6 months of real ships to present a logical platform-progression narrative, with genuinely-new ships stacking on top. 5 Product Hunt launches + press timed to crescendo into George's late-Oct fundraise. Draft — review the ARC first, then we backfill features into it. Visuals ramp as the screenshot/image/video tools (#264) land over the next few days.
The narrative arc — "how a clinic platform becomes the operating system"
Each act answers a buyer question; each Friday spotlights 2-4 REAL shipped features that fit the theme.
| Act | Story | Weeks |
|---|---|---|
| 1 · Foundation | "Run your practice" — scheduling, clients, onboarding, payments | Jul 17 · 24 · 31 |
| 2 · Clinical depth | "Deliver better care" — labs, protocols, chat, wearables/health data | Aug 7 · 14 · 21 · 28 |
| 3 · Atlas AI | "Your AI operator" — copilot, clinical assistant, observations, consumer | Sep 4 · 11 |
| 4 · Growth & revenue | "Grow and get paid" — marketplace, growth suite, insurance/RCM, directory | Sep 18 · 25 · Oct 2 · 9 |
| 5 · Ecosystem & scale | "Scale + trust" — accelerator, white-label, security/Trust Center | Oct 16 · 23 |
| ★ RECAP (fundraise) | "6 months, 100+ ships: the AI operating system for clinics" | Oct 30 |
| 6 · Sustained velocity | new ships + "Front Desk Rewind" deep-dives + customer stories | Nov 6 → Dec 25 |

The 5 Product Hunt launches (your list, timed)
Atlas · Marketplace · Growth Suite · Provider Directory · Accelerator — spaced Sep 4 → Oct 16 so five launch spikes compound into the Oct 30 recap and your fundraise. Each = PH launch + press push
- that week's Front Desk built around it + LinkedIn/X amplification.
My proposed 6th/alternative candidate: Insurance/RCM (Stedi) — "your practice is bleeding revenue on denials" is one of the most shareable, ROI-obvious PH stories in healthtech (Healthie ran a whole webinar on exactly this). Strong enough to be a PH launch instead of just a newsletter week — worth considering swapping in or adding as a 6th.
Fundraise alignment (late Oct)
The arc deliberately front-loads the flagship launches (Sep–mid Oct) so that by the time you open conversations, a VC doing diligence sees: 5 recent Product Hunt launches, ~20 weeks of relentless Friday ships, a category-defining recap, and rising AI/SEO citations. **The content IS the "ship rate
- momentum" narrative** the raise is built on.
Open decisions for George (review together)
- The arc — does the 5-act progression land, or reorder? (e.g., Atlas earlier for max splash?)
- PH #5/6 — keep Accelerator, or swap/add Insurance-RCM as a launch?
- Recap timing — Oct 30 vs. earlier if the raise starts sooner.
- Visual readiness — first issues text-forward; when do we gate on the #264 image/video tools?
- Then: backfill the 6-month feature inventory INTO these themed weeks (the "review together" step).
Filled Calendar (backfill — DRAFT for George's one-time review)
Sourced from: git log (6 months), FEATURES.md, growth-content-backlog.md. All features listed are confirmed shipped (Stable or Active in FEATURES.md). Features shipped in prior months are framed as Rewind/ICYMI — honest spotlight of existing capability. PH weeks are flagged separately; the Product Hunt listing itself is the new event even when the underlying tech shipped earlier. 2-3 features per week; don't cram. Gaps are called out explicitly.

Gap flags (review required before the week goes live)
| Week | Gap | Recommended action |
|---|---|---|
| Oct 9 | No "Provider Directory" product exists in the codebase. Nearest shipped: DoseSpot (prescribing network) + Superbill. | Either (a) ship a real directory feature by then, (b) reposition PH #4 around DoseSpot/e-prescribe as "Provider Tools", or (c) swap Insurance-RCM to PH #4 (it's the stronger ROI story). |
| Oct 16 | No "Accelerator" product shipped. The concept exists in vision docs but no code. | Either ship the Accelerator onboarding funnel by mid-Oct, or pivot PH #5 to the Atlas Slack AI Employee (genuinely novel, VC-visible). |
| Oct 23 | White-label app is a paid add-on in the pricing model but ship status of the white-label BUILD (basishybrid flavors system) is unconfirmed. | Confirm with George whether the white-label delivery pipeline is ready to demo/announce by Oct 23. |
| Nov–Dec | New ship slots (⬜) are placeholders — no ships from the future can be listed. | Use these slots for whatever ships in Oct–Dec; fall back to Rewind deep-dives if nothing new lands. |
