Which marketing channel brought your AI product its first users?

A channel can look successful at the top of the funnel and still produce no lasting product use. To make channel comparisons useful, define the first valuable action and the period in which you checked whether users returned.

Which channel produced your first activated users: direct outreach, a community, build-in-public updates, search, a directory, a launch platform, a partner, or paid acquisition? Share the audience, message, approximate effort, activated-user result, and what you tried before it worked.
