made · the distribution app
distronaut
The product is done and nobody knows. Distronaut gives you one distribution action every morning, for a hundred days. It names the action before you wake up, times the session, and keeps the receipts.
a look inside · the first hundred days, screen by screen
the problem
builders don't stop selling because it's hard. they stop because nothing answers back.
Code answers immediately: it compiles or it doesn't. Distribution pays out on odds, over weeks, with no reply on most days. So the work quietly slides to the bottom of the list, the product stays finished, and nobody ever hears about it. A hundred days of small, deliberate reps is the known cure, and doing them without a system is where it dies.
the four lanes
There's no fifth way to tell someone about your product. You reach people who know you or strangers, one at a time or all at once. Distronaut rotates all four so the week covers every one of them at full intensity.
people who already know you
One at a time. The highest conversion rate of the four, and the one almost everybody skips because it feels like asking for a favour.
people who know you, all at once
Compounds slowly, then all at the same time. The lane that keeps working while you sleep, once it has enough reps behind it.
strangers, one at a time
Unlimited supply, and the only lane that works on day one. No audience required, which is why it carries the early weeks.
strangers, all at once
Buys speed, never judgement. Capped, and given a kill date in advance so it can't quietly eat the runway.
The framework underneath is free and well known: the Core 4 and the Rule of 100 come from Alex Hormozi's $100M Leads. Distronaut is the part that makes you actually do them, and isn't affiliated with the author.
key features
the morning action
One task, drawn from a hundred written in advance and rotated so the week covers all four lanes. It's waiting before you wake up.
studio drafts
Ask for the post, the DM, the ad body, and the draft lands on the action itself. Tomorrow morning it's already there.
the ledger
Minutes logged per lane, so you can see where the effort really went instead of guessing which channel is working.
an honest chain
A hundred sessions, not a hundred dates. Miss a Tuesday and the finish line moves by one. The streak stays true.
rest days on purpose
Two a month, logged rather than skipped. A break you took is different information from a day you dropped.
the timer
Morning prompt, midday reminder, evening last call. All three stop the second you tick the day off.
the idea · why it works
you're still engineering. the physics just changed.
In software, good work produces the right result. In distribution, good work raises the odds of one. Builders carry the first expectation into the second game, get no answer for a week, and conclude they're bad at it.
The way out is to run distribution the way you'd run any experiment: small bets, one variable at a time, and a log you can read later. Distronaut is that log, with the day's experiment already written.
After one day, randomness wins. After a hundred, patterns show up.
the thinking behind it
pricing · one plan
the whole method is free. writing is the paid part.
No seats, no usage meter, no tiers to compare. The hundred actions, the rotation, and the ledger cost nothing. Pro is for when the blank page is what's slowing you down.

daniel daneshi · creator of distronaut
Distronaut started as a plan for my own product. Mailover worked, I used it every day, and hardly anyone knew it existed. So I wrote myself a hundred day distribution plan and put it in a document.
The document decided nothing. On the mornings I felt like it I did the reps, and on the mornings I didn't I shipped another feature instead and told myself that counted. What I needed was something that picked the action for me, timed it, and remembered what came of it.
A plan in a document waits for you to be in the mood. This one shows up whether you are or not.
If you build more than you sell, this is the app I wish I'd had two years ago. Astronauts explore unknown environments methodically, on a schedule, with a log. Distribution deserves the same.
a hundred days from now, either way.
The only variable is whether you did the reps. Free on iPhone, and the first action is waiting tomorrow morning.
