Launch Readiness
High IQ is in certification mode. The goal is no longer broad performance cleanup. The goal is to narrow the launch surface, prove every user-facing path, polish the highest-value screens, and make one honest paid promise.Current Verdict
Status: Not launch-certified yet. The app is close enough to prepare a free friends/family TestFlight after a blocker pass, but it is not ready for paid launch or public App Store launch. Primary blockers:- Feature access and tier enforcement are being fixed in PR #806.
- Guest / free / Pro gating still needs route-level Revyl/Argent proof after PR #806 lands.
- First-run onboarding entry is being added in PR #807 and still needs real-device proof.
- Revyl YAML validates, but the latest checked smoke workflow failed 7/8 and Revyl is not yet a hard CI gate.
- Mobile screen/integration tests under
apps/mobile/test/**are excluded from the normal mobile unit gate. - Strain detail is a core product screen and still needs device-level UI polish.
- Gmail and historical import need beta treatment until OAuth, privacy, production envs, retries, and costs are proven.

|---|---|---|---|
| Certification Sprint | Fix gates, freeze v1 scope, build onboarding, prove tests | No | Current candidate passes local gates + Revyl smoke + manual core UX QA |

| Paid Beta | Prove willingness to pay and billing reliability | Yes, small cohort | RevenueCat, App Store products, restore, webhook sync, lapsed state verified |
| Public Launch | Ship focused v1.0 with accurate promises | Yes | App/site/docs/pricing/test evidence all agree |
| Post-Launch | Expand value one clean release at a time | Yes | Each feature has its own certification evidence |
