Suggestions to consider:
* reduce minimum funding + goal and increase deadline. $50k+ this month seems optimistic
* link something other than Estimaker's homepage that redirects to login. I'm hesitant to login and share my information with an unknown app I've never seen
* link source code where it says open source, can't easily find it
* remove summary, testimonials, duplicate funding section, past/future projects (doubtful, wikis, debates)
* dropping podcasts from the proposal since that'd be 3 forecasting podcasts around Manifold. Podcasts don't seem information-dense and don't seem to get many views:

I don't have much to say (the application looks good to me), but this looks very cool! I quite like the observation that a big challenge is that we don't have good enough tools and easy enough processes to aid decision making.

What is this?

What is Manifold?
Manifold is the world's largest social prediction market.
Get accurate real-time odds on politics, tech, sports, and more.
Win cash prizes for your predictions on our sweepstakes markets! Always free to play. No purchase necessary.
Are our predictions accurate?
Yes! Manifold is very well calibrated, with forecasts on average within 4 percentage points of the true probability. Our probabilities are created by users buying and selling shares of a market.
In the 2022 US midterm elections, we outperformed all other prediction market platforms and were in line with FiveThirtyEight’s performance. Many people who don't like trading still use Manifold to get reliable news.
How do I win cash prizes?
Manifold offers two market types: play money and sweepstakes.
All questions include a play money market which uses mana Ṁ and can't be cashed out.
Selected markets will have a sweepstakes toggle. These require sweepcash S to participate and winners can withdraw sweepcash as a cash prize. You can filter for sweepstakes markets on the browse page.
