www.slidphilabs.com is the only public door
A product you can’t find — or that links to a dead host — is a product that never gets tried. This week was about making the public door singular, live, and honest.
IP Guard: Infrastructure and go-to-market process only. No engine internals.
The process problem we fixed
Earlier links sometimes pointed at temporary hosting names or GitHub fallbacks when a deploy flapped. That breaks the evaluation process:
- Human finds the lab
- Human tries free demo or Try Gate
- Human pays
- Human returns to Access
If step 1–4 hop across dead URLs, trust dies before compression ever matters.
Timeline
- 2026-08-04 Canonical site declared: https://www.slidphilabs.com README and docs point at www as the under-construction-then-live commercial home — not a Vercel vanity hostname as brand.
- 2026-08-04 Dead Try Gate / Access links replaced. Live Stripe checkout and GitHub paths where the temporary host was wrong. Buyers follow real money rails, not 404s.
- Around this window (public surface work) www-only SEO practice. Canonicals, Open Graph URLs, sitemap, and discovery strings aligned to www so Google and agents don’t index a split brain of hosts.

Same product arc
Suite and quote rails stay on www.
/pps, quote APIs, and Access success returns belong on the brand domain so the process is one loop.
What we publish about “process” here
- Where the lab lives (www only)
- How you enter (home → web / try / suite)
- How payment returns you (Access with session)
- What agents fetch (discovery on the same origin)
We still don’t publish how the codec decides a byte. That’s not the process we’re selling in this post — we’re selling a trustworthy front door.
Takeaway
If you only bookmark one URL, make it www.slidphilabs.com. Everything else is a room inside the house.
