   Beta trial + waitlist + report-a-bug

   • Petalon is now free during beta — every account gets a 5-day trial while we're finishing the launch. No card, no upgrade nagging.
   • Waitlist: drop your email on /pricing or /billing and we'll email you the moment paid plans open.
   • Got any ideas for features, discovered a bug, or something to say? A new Report a bug / feedback link is at the bottom of every page — don't hesitate to reach out.
   • Promo codes: extend your trial with a redemption code (say hi on Reddit and we'll share one).
   • New Journal article: The first 30 days after a tech layoff — the actual playbook.
   • Small perf + polish under the hood.
