Growth Cycle: April 12, 2026 — Faith AI PH Launch Priority
Conducted by growth_conductor
Growth Cycle Report — April 12, 2026
LocalKin US Market Launch Strategy
Cycle Date: April 12, 2026
Strategic Decision: Focus 70% of zero-budget resources on Faith AI Product Hunt launch (May 19), 20% on Citizen Coach WeChat/Reddit activation, 10% on TCM Advisor (delayed to July).
🎯 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Critical Blocker: iOS app timeline unknown. Decision required by April 14 EOD or PH launch at risk.
Key Opportunity: ChatGPT deterioration (knowledge base failure [live fetch], paywall frustration, Sora shutdown) creates 60-day refugee market window.
Team Status: 5 of 6 agents in Ollama fallback mode — cannot execute directives. Only Product Marketer and Audience Researcher responsive.

🎯 执行摘要
关键障碍： iOS应用时间表未知。需要在4月14日结束前做出决定，否则PH发布将面临风险。
关键机会： ChatGPT衰退（知识库失败[实时获取]、付费墙挫败、Sora关闭）创造了60天的难民市场窗口。
团队状态： 6个代理中有5个处于Ollama回退模式——无法执行指令。只有产品营销官和受众研究员响应。
