Product announcement: Introducing hunch mode

"Instead of rolling out every feature behind a feature gate, try simply rolling out every feature as hard as possible."

- The "Evil Statsig" Twitter account

We totally agree—and to this end, we are proud to announce hunch mode will soon be available to all users! Instead of spending time conducting experiments, you can ship substantially more features by just doing so extremely recklessly.

Yes, experimentation is critically important to businesses. Yes, there is potentially infinite upside to conducting experimentation. Yes, companies that demonstrate good experimentation culture outperform and outpace their competitors...

However, hunches exist for a reason: Sometimes they're right.

How does hunch mode work?

Soon, hunch mode will be free for all users to leverage in their experimentation (or non-experimentation) journeys.

To get started with hunch mode:

  1. Log in to your Statsig account (or create one if you haven't already)

  2. Don't actually use it

  3. Just start shipping random things. Eventually something will stick!

Very intuitive! Check back in soon once we've added our "feature roulette" toggle. (You'll never guess what it does!)

And, of course, please enjoy your April Fool's day.
