Key line: A frontier release is a capability event, not a ready-made product strategy.

The View
Do this week:
- Map the new model to one production path (chat, agents, or batch)—not all three.
- Re-run your private eval set; skip public leaderboard screenshots without a clear rubric.
- Verify rate limits, data-retention controls, and enterprise contract terms before changing defaults.
Ignore for now:
- Marketing demos outside your latency or cost range.
- Single-number Elo claims without defined axes—see the Release Tracker methodology.
