Lookin back at last year, for one project we had 6 working days to rebuild Human AI Academy's site before a launch. The old site scored 45/100 on performance and took 6.2 seconds to load. With a launch about to send thousands of people to one page, that was the real risk. Not the design. So speed came first. We built 30+ custom Framer components and kept every section light enough to load fast on launch day. The result: 94/100 on performance, 1.8s load time, and launch week took them from 4,000 to 12,000 students. What I keep relearning: on launch week, the page doesn't need to be clever. It needs to load before people lose interest.

Rebuilding a whole site in 6 working days and taking it from 45 to 94 on performance is wild. Framing speed as the real risk instead of design is such a mature call.

That performance jump is impressive, especially with only six working days. A fast-loading site can make a real difference when a launch brings in thousands of visitors.

Speed is UX. Going from a 45 to a 94 performance score in 6 days while scaling to 12,000 students is too good. When optimizing Framer down to a 94 performance score where did the biggest gains come from.

45 to 94 in six days is solid. Speed first, then design polish is the right order.

6 working days before a launch is a stressful timeline. what was dragging it to 6.2s?
