🔥 Biggest problem

Proof exists, but it is decorative: logos without names, quotes without jobs.

🧊 Surprisingly good

The hero spends more pixels on atmosphere than on the product.

Roast

  • We still do not know who pays, what breaks, or why this is not a spreadsheet.
  • Your CTA is confident. Your offer is a mood board.
  • Pricing is playing hide and seek with the only person who can sign.

Current headline

Where operations finally come together.

Get close work the same day before the next standup.

Your homepage is a vibe. Buyers need a job to be done.

Copy Doctor · CTA, trust, framing

CTA
Start with one workflow
Subhead
For finance teams tired of tool sprawl.
Proof
Named customers. Real numbers. No 'trusted by innovative teams'.

Visual critique

  • Hero hierarchy buries the product under a slogan.
  • Pricing is a nav item, not a decision aid.
  • Mobile layout lets the CTA fall below the fold.

Action plan

Fix today

  1. Rewrite the hero so the customer and the outcome come first.
  2. Add a clear product screenshot or output example.
  3. Replace vague CTA copy with "Start with one workflow".

Fix this week

  1. Add named customer evidence above the fold.
  2. Clarify pricing in one screen.
  3. Fix the mobile hero so the CTA is visible without a scroll.

Later

  1. Add a comparison page against the two obvious alternatives.
  2. Publish two customer stories with numbers.

Ordered by Impact × Confidence ÷ Effort, so the top item is the one worth doing first.

Shipped the fixes?

When you ship the fixes, start another $9 roast. Payment is confirmed before we capture the revised homepage and create its new report.

What each rank unlocks

Everyone gets a real report. Ranking higher buys depth and human attention, not a better score.

  • Everyone: score + 3 strengths + 3 problems + headline rewrite + public page + share card
  • Top 10: full report + permanent profile + backlink
  • #2/#3: deep teardown + full copy rewrite + hero recommendation
  • #1: Full roast — human review + recorded teardown + hero rewrite + redesign + Hall of Flame

Votes are independent, unbuyable and shown separately from rank — “I’d try this” means people want the product, not that someone paid more.
