85/100 Strong

Scores higher than 95% of 1,391 multi-step funnels we have measured. Among the 1,074 saas funnels in that group, higher than 94%.

How this was measured

Measured by Roentgen 1.25.1 on 2026-08-15. A capture is read once and its measurements freeze there, so the stamp says which ruleset read this one.

Coverage is detection coverage, not a verdict — it counts the conversion tactics we could prove are present, out of the 11 that apply to a saas funnel. Per device: desktop 85 · mobile 85.

Walk 250 links on the entry page, 230 walkable. 2 matched a funnel step; we captured 3 pages in all, this one included.

What we didn’t find

3 of 11 applicable

applicable tactics we checked for and did not see on any step we reached

measuredextracted directly from the live page. a fact, not an opinion

What we didn’t see3 of 11 applicable

Demo / docs entry 477 of the 1,393 funnels we checked
Proof above the fold 314 of the 1,968 funnels we checked
Scarcity / urgency copy 101 of the 1,960 funnels we checked

Absence is a measurement, not a recommendation: we do not know why a tactic is missing, whether it belongs here, or whether adding it would change anything. Where a walk stopped early, a tactic living deeper would also read as not detected.

Body text size

type:body-text-size

Smallest body text is 12px (base ~20px). below the ~16px readable floor.

FixKeep body copy ≥15-16px; reserve sub-13px for fine print only.

forms:input-types

1 field uses type="text" for email or phone. mobile keyboards will not adapt.

“email”

Tap-target size (mobile)

mobile:tap-target-size-mobile

506 of 731 interactive targets are under 44×44px on mobile.

smallest: “Cloud Storage” at 79×15px

Playbook match — which funnel play this page runs — measured, evidence-quoted

We ran this pass on the pages we captured and found nothing to show. That is a measurement of this funnel, not a recommendation — and it is a different statement from a layer we never ran, which does not appear here at all.
