I spent almost 1 month building this instead of going to work. Is the demo video any good?

​ So for the last 20 days I pretty much did nothing else. I'm a data engineer and a solo game dev on the side. The part that always kills me is marketing. You post on Bluesky, on Reddit or whatever, you make a trailer, and you have no idea what actually brought wishlists. So I built NextWishlist. It reads your Steam wishlists every day (read only), looks at your posts, and tells you what moved and why. It compares your game to the games in your niche, and every morning you get a short to-do with post ideas based on what works for them. It also knows all of Valve's deadlines (Next Fest, sales) so you don't miss one. It has a lots of features to discover with tools that help you step by step to optimize your steam page or reach some influencer for exemple.. The video is the real app btw, running on a fake game I use for demos. Nebula Drift doesn't exist :D It's not open yet, I want to start with a small private beta before the February Next Fest. So if you are interested feel free to send me a DM or ask for beta on the website. What I'd really like feedback on is the video: Do you get what it does in the first 10 seconds? Is 1:39 too long? The voice is AI generated (made it locally). Does that bother you? Do you think my project can find his customer ? In your opinion, does it offer real added value, and would you be willing to sign up for the product? Honestly give me as much feedback you can, even if you find the vidéo horrible haha
