I’m building a side project called XCTBL.

Instead of starting with features, dashboards, or growth loops, it starts with context. The idea is simple: systems should explain themselves as they evolve.

XCTBL is structured around:

• Records (not blog posts) • Tools that work independently • Context as a first-class feature

No signup required. No funnel. You can explore at your own pace.

Early feedback was consistent: the entry point was confusing. Too much, too fast. So I stripped it back and created a single public starting page that explains what this is before anything else.

New public entry point:

https://RCRDBL.com/context

I also rewired the entire experience to be exploitable without signing up for anything at all, thanks to your feedback.

I’m not optimizing for conversions yet — just clarity.

Curious whether this feels understandable or still too abstract.

Feedback welcome.
