    Common questions

    Quick answers to common founder questions related to this tool.

    Why does dependency matter?

    Because businesses that depend too heavily on external systems can lose reach, revenue, or access quickly when platforms change rules or prices.

    What improves independence?

    Owned channels, owned audiences, direct payment relationships, flexible tools, and lower dependence on any single platform or supplier.
