  "account": "Momo is an app designed for people who struggle to start tasks. The app's creator, after missing a family trip due to a visa form, built the app to help users overcome procrastination. The creator distributed the app through two TikTok videos, which received high engagement rates around 14%. Both videos featured an explanation of ADHD and did not include any ad content or a link to the app. The creator believes the high engagement shows that people recognize the problem and seek a solution themselves. The creator's first paid subscriber came from a video explaining how the app can help. The creator's paywall allows free working sessions and a paid tier that offers co-working sessions. The creator plans to create more videos with different hooks to test the engagement and share the results.",
  "summary": "Two ADHD videos coincided with 45 Momo installs and one subscriber. The creator explains what the data suggests, what it cannot prove, and what comes next.",
