I think you need to work on your content a bit. You main title is your best chance of drawing someone in. At the moment it's "Web app platform". Try A/B test it with something a little more exciting and add benefit of the platform i.e. why would I use this over Heroku?

Thanks for the feedback! We're going to work on that. We've got some architectural advantages vs. Heroku that we think will become more apparent once we get some new features in place, but right now the main benefits vs. Heroku are WebSockets, the ability to persist data to local storage (for running databases/etc), and much simpler/cheaper billing for the beta. We're trying to come up with a way to summarize this in a bumper sticker slogan :)

Awesome! Sounds like you're on the right track.
