+### Prewarm on intent
+
+That bootstrap is the one round trip everything else waits behind, and a buyer
+signals the open before they make it. `SeatPicker.prewarm` (or the
+`prewarmSeatPicker` function export) starts it from a hover or a pointerdown,
+so the answer is already in flight when the picker mounts:
+
+```js
+import { SeatPicker } from '@seatlayer/js';
+
+const seating = { event: 'ev_9f3a', publicKey: 'pk_live_…' };
+button.addEventListener('pointerenter', () => SeatPicker.prewarm(seating));
+button.addEventListener('pointerdown', () => SeatPicker.prewarm(seating));
+button.addEventListener('click', () => SeatPicker.open({ ...seating }));
+```
+
+The page still makes exactly one bootstrap request: the picker's first read
+joins the one already in flight, or takes its completed answer. Calling it
+repeatedly is free, it never throws, and a prewarm that fails simply is not
+there when the picker mounts — the mount then behaves as it does without one.
+It applies to `publicKey` mounts; options carrying a custom `transport`,
+`buyerAccessToken` or `buyerAccessTokenProvider` are a no-op.
