Priorities

Top Leaks To Fix First

Ranked by revenue impact. Each one is something users — or an AI answer engine — need to see and currently can't. Fixing the top few moves your score the most.

01

Structured data

Add structured data (LocalBusiness / Organization schema: address, hours, phone, ratings) so search engines show you with rich results.

02

Fast initial response

Speed up the homepage — most users arrive on a phone, and a slow first load loses them before the page shows.

Conversion evidence

How The Page Sells

6 of 8 of the buying-decision signals we could verify are on your site today. The page already shows 6 of 8 buying-decision elements. The remaining lift is in sharpening the ones that are missing, not rebuilding the page.

Below is the breakdown: what's already working (with the exact text quoted from your page as proof), and the highest-impact additions to win more trial signups — in priority order.

Scope: an automated scan of the 5 pages we could read across your site. Every “found” item quotes the exact text on your page so you can verify it. It doesn't judge copy quality or design.

Selling well (detected, with proof)

  • Clear value proposition (headline) — found: “Accelerator Platform for Founders”
  • Action-oriented primary CTA — found: “Start free” (on /pricing)
  • Social proof (testimonial / customers / rating) — found: “review” (on /pricing)
  • Risk reversal (trial / guarantee / no card) — found: “Start free” (on /pricing)
  • Visible pricing / 'starting at' anchor — found: “Pricing”
  • Easy lead-capture path — found: “form field on page” (on /auth?as=founder&mode=signup)

Highest-impact additions to sell more

  • Specific, quantified result — Add a concrete number (result %, time saved, customers served). Specifics convert better than adjectives.
  • Objection handling (FAQ) — Answer the top 3-5 buyer objections in an FAQ to remove hesitation before the CTA.

Deliverable

Your complete fix pack is ready

We've already done the full work-up for YC Startup School, but AI — every fix written out, with copy and code ready to paste. Here's what's inside:

Complete fix plan (every issue, step by step)

1. Structured data

Add structured data (LocalBusiness / Organization schema: address, hours, phone, ratings) so search engines show you with rich results.

  1. Add JSON-LD using the schema snippet below, edited with your real details.
  2. Validate it in Google's Rich Results Test before publishing.
  3. Keep it in sync with the on-page facts (name, address, phone, offers).

2. Fast initial response

Speed up the homepage — most users arrive on a phone, and a slow first load loses them before the page shows.

  1. Compress and lazy-load images; serve modern formats (WebP/AVIF).
  2. Put the site behind a CDN and enable caching of static assets.
  3. Defer non-critical JavaScript so the first screen paints fast.

Action order

48-Hour Fix Plan

  • Add structured data (LocalBusiness / Organization schema: address, hours, phone, ratings) so search engines show you with rich results.
  • Speed up the homepage — most users arrive on a phone, and a slow first load loses them before the page shows.

Why it matters

The fastest users do not read every page. They scan the first screen, trust signals, pricing cues and how easy it is to start a free trial. Missing signals make the offer harder to understand and easier to ignore.
