A landing page review that shows its sources

Expert-grade review, automated. Your copy is checked against the published rules of Ogilvy, Cialdini, Schwartz, and CXL research — and every finding cites the page it came from.

Reviewed against the canon. Not vibes.

Your reviewers are the classics

The framework encodes what the field already proved: Ogilvy on headlines, Cialdini on influence and proof, Schwartz on awareness states, CXL Institute on tested friction patterns. The engine applies their rules to your page.

Ogilvy · Cialdini · Schwartz · CXL

Findings quote your page, then the source

No "your messaging could be stronger" hand-waving. Each finding shows the exact sentence it flagged, why it fails the check, and the citation behind the rule — so you can verify before you rewrite.

Quote → verdict → citation

Prioritized like a paid review

A good reviewer tells you what to fix first. Findings are ranked by severity, critical issues on top, so you spend Tuesday fixing the headline — not re-kerning the footer.
