Conversion / UX & Conversion

Turn friction into a ranked growth agenda.

The roadmap is crowded with opinions and isolated tests, while the highest-value friction remains unclear.

What should we change first, and what evidence will settle it?

Engagement brief

A bounded question. A defensible decision.

Built for: Digital product, ecommerce, growth, and experimentation leaders.
Entry diagnostic: Conversion opportunity and evidence review
Decision record: Ranked opportunity portfolio and test decision briefs
Client commitment: Two workshops plus access to behavioral, research, and experiment evidence.

The analytical work

Evidence enters. A capital or operating decision leaves.

Inputs we interrogate

Journey analytics, funnels, recordings, and voice of customer
Prior experiments, product constraints, and roadmap context
Commercial value by journey, segment, and behavior

How we establish the answer

Synthesize signals into falsifiable opportunity statements
Quantify reach, value, confidence, and effort
Design tests around the decision - not the feature
Capture causal learning for reuse across the roadmap

Evidence sequence

Not dashboards for display. Evidence for the next move.

Each view is selected to answer a buyer question: what did we examine, what did we find, and what should the business do now?

Ranked opportunity01

Recover the cart-to-checkout transition.

Users add with intent, then lose confidence before checkout. The pattern repeats across acquisition sources.

P0Side-cart reassurance + shipping progressHigh reach · high confidence
P1Benefit-led collection-to-PDP routingMedium reach · high evidence
P1Purpose-built paid-social landing pathHigh reach · validate first

Ranking logicWhy P0 is first

Reach: Four acquisition pathsThe checkout-initiation constraint appears across every observed entry route.
Value: Checkout initiationThe break occurs after demonstrated cart intent and before the purchase path can progress.
Confidence: Telemetry + session evidenceIndependent behavioral signals point to the same friction before the experiment begins.
Readiness: Pre-registered exposureA bounded treatment, primary measure, guardrails, and decision threshold are already defined.

Priority is a pre-launch evidence rank, not an outcome forecast.

First decisionShip the side-cart test with a pre-registered checkout-initiation threshold.

Experiment decision brief / Pre-launch

Side-cart reassurance and shipping progress

No outcome is claimed. This is the decision package required before controlled exposure begins.

Signal: Cart intent survives across sources; checkout initiation does not.
Hypothesis: Making fulfillment cost and progress explicit before checkout will increase initiation.
Primary measure: Checkout initiation per eligible cart session
Decision threshold: At least 3% relative lift with the 90% interval excluding zero
Owner: Growth product + analytics
Guardrail: Purchase completion and support-contact rate do not deteriorate

Decision question: Did the treatment earn a place in the product roadmap?

01
Observed evidence
Checkout initiation breaks after cart intent.
Cross-channel telemetry and session evidence point to unresolved delivery cost and reassurance before checkout.
02
Friction diagnosis
The uncertainty arrives too late.
Fulfillment cost, timing, and progress are not visible when the shopper decides whether to continue.
03
Testable hypothesis
Make the commitment legible before checkout.
A side-cart treatment combining delivery reassurance and shipping progress should increase eligible checkout starts.
04
Controlled treatment
50/50 eligible-session exposure.
Control retained the existing cart. Treatment added the combined reassurance module with no other journey changes.

LR-024 Worked continuation

Isolate the mechanism before the treatment becomes a pattern.

The adjacent worked reconstruction creates a narrow next question: which reassurance element should survive a further controlled exposure?

Record state
Illustrative handoff

Evidence boundary
Uses the adjacent synthetic decision record as an input; no client test is represented.

Next controlled action
Run a three-cell exposure separating delivery reassurance from shipping progress.

Reuse rule
Retain the eligible-session definition, primary gate, guardrails, and decision owner with the record.
LR-025 Pre-launch hypothesis

Route benefit-led shoppers to proof before product detail.

A secondary opportunity remains a hypothesis until the audience, evidence signal, and counterfactual are specific enough to test.

Record state
No outcome observed

Evidence boundary
Evidence review required before the item enters a controlled experiment portfolio.

Next controlled action
Audit entry-page evidence and define the comparison journey before authorization.

Reuse rule
Keep the original decision context and exclusion criteria so the hypothesis is not reused as a result.
LR-026 Research intake

Validate paid-social landing clarity before it competes for exposure.

The opportunity is held at intake until the audience-message mismatch and likely measurement window are established.

Record state
Research required

Evidence boundary
No outcome observed; this is a scoped research question, not a forecast.

Next controlled action
Collect route-level evidence and specify the counterfactual before ranking the item.

Reuse rule
Preserve the uncertainty note and review date with the proposed next action.

Decision question: Is the observed movement credible enough to change the roadmap?

Focused Tangentix causal-lift framework comparing standard attribution with an incremental lift model, uplift modeling, causal inference, and a negative-result feedback loop. — Tangentix experimentation framework / illustrative values

What Tangentix found: The same topline movement could imply different decisions once baseline and uncertainty were included.
Decision that follows: Scale, iterate, or stop based on the credible effect - not the winning variant label.
