Controlled observations test a small prompt set against OpenAI and Perplexity. They show what an answer contained at a recorded moment; they are not visitor referrals or revenue events.

Seeded limitation: Controlled prompt results can vary by model, time, locale, and provider behavior. They never become an observed referral or payment row.

04Fix
Turn the strongest supported gap into one founder-reviewed change.
Setup and evidence blockers rank before impact guesses. This seeded issue has enough observed and provider evidence for a draft, while its dollar impact remains clearly estimated.

Clarify the pricing proof for AI-search visitors
AI-search visitors reach /pricing at a healthy rate, but convert at 0.9% versus 2.8% for comparable organic-search visitors.
- 312 observed AI-search pricing visits
- 3 provider-verified payments after those visits
- No deterministic prompt-to-payment identity claimed

Start with one websiteThis static demo does not apply a change or write an experiment. In the authenticated product, a founder reviews the draft before marking it implemented or launching a supported experiment.

Measure the change, then keep the honest result.
Visibility, referrals, conversion, and revenue are reviewed after implementation. Revenue Memory records what happened—even when the right conclusion is to wait for more evidence.

Keep collecting evidence. The sample is below the minimum rule, so Metrivo does not call the draft a winner.
