The tests

Each test states what we believe and the reading that would prove us wrong. The threshold is set before the data arrives, and a change to it is dated.

  • 3 AI narrows choiceAI removes friction and creates inertia, because its shortlist becomes the default. AI names as many brands or more. collecting
  • 5 Recommendations lead demandA higher relative index leads to higher demand. There is no lagged relationship, or brand search moves first. collecting
