Users loved it. The metrics were strong. We killed it anyway. The real reason took years to admit.

The real feedback lives in what they don't say. We decoded six months of polite rejections.

It's more common than failure. More painful than rejection. And almost nobody documents it honestly.

The money was real. The team was real. The market timing was not. A first-person account.
