How this was measured
Measured by Roentgen 1.28.1 on 2026-10-01. A capture is read once and its measurements freeze there, so the stamp says which ruleset read this one.
This is detection coverage, not a verdict — it counts the conversion tactics we could prove are present, out of the 10 that apply to an affiliate funnel. A low count means we did not detect those patterns, not that the funnel is weak.
Against all 1,781 multi-step funnels, more conversion tactics than 10% of them.
Walk 110 links on the entry page, 102 walkable. 2 matched a funnel step; we captured 3 pages in all, this one included.

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.

A match means this funnel's measurable surfaces fit the playbook's pattern — the quoted language is what fired the detection. A lever is one playbook mechanism observed on-page. We never claim what a brand's ads or emails do; a crawl can't see them. All funnel designs →
Two different things sit side by side here. The claim and its quoted evidence are measured on this funnel, the same way every other fact on this page is. The playbook itself is written guidance — our strategy library, not a measurement of this site — and it lives behind the links above. Nothing on this page recommends what this brand should do.

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.
