What's happening?
The invitee experiences the benefit from the other side of a transaction. The hypothesis is that removing scheduling back-and-forth can create interest in using the tool as a host.
Why it might work
How the mechanism creates value
The recipient encounters the product through an artifact they already need to consume. This gives the creation tool distribution beyond its current users. The path breaks if branding overwhelms the artifact or the recipient must sign up before receiving value.
The implementation to investigate
