Building in Public: Choosing a Tagline

Naming is the first API of any product. It defines how the world queries you.

For Marqui, we are struggling with a paradox: We are building a “Website Builder,” but our core innovation is that you don’t have to build anything.

Most personal sites are static monuments. We are building a living organism that feeds on your social stream.

Here are the four taglines we are debating internally.

1. “The Website That Writes Itself.”

  • Pro: High utility. It explains the mechanics instantly. You live your life; Marqui does the writing.
  • Con: Maybe too functional? Does it capture the “Soul” of the graph?

2. “Your Living Digital Identity.”

  • Pro: Visionary. It implies evolution, biology, and presence.
  • Con: A bit vague. Every Web3 startup claims to be “Identity.”

3. “Don’t Build a Website. Grow One.”

  • Pro: Action-oriented. Creates a new category. It frames the product as a garden, not a construction site.
  • Con: Less direct than #1.

4. “The Identity Engine.”

  • Pro: Strong, mechanical, powerful. Appeals to engineers and power users.
  • Con: Cold. Marqui is supposed to be your Chaperone, not just a motor.

The Feedback Loop

We are testing our new Interactivity Protocol. Instead of a simple poll, we want your raw thoughts. Use the Flow Card below to tell us directly.
