## Score over time

The report includes a score-history chart for Sciloop and the comparison companies Mercor, Surge AI, Scale AI, Turing, and Handshake AI. The chart’s highlighted series is Sciloop.

## Trust — 54, Fair

Trust measures proof that the product is real, competent, and safe to try.

| Company | Trust read |
| --- | --- |
| Sciloop | A “Backed by investors in” badge with a Stripe logo appears above the headline. |
| Mercor | Implicit context: Mercor may benefit from pre-existing familiarity among its target audience. |
| Surge AI | A “New Frontier data and RL environments, off the shelf” announcement banner. |
| Scale AI | Implicit context: Scale AI may benefit from pre-existing familiarity among its target audience. |
| Turing | Implicit context: Turing may benefit from pre-existing familiarity among its target audience. |
| Handshake AI | “1M+ companies ready to hire. 100+ AI specialist roles across all levels.” |

### Trust ranking

2. Scale AI — **52**
3. Handshake AI — **48**
4. Mercor — **42**
5. Turing — **42**

Our optional **Proof section builder** helps choose proof signals and develop copy and placement for a stronger trust section: [Build proof section](https://www.lazyweb.com/backlog?site=sciloop.dev#opt-trust-signals).

## Value props — 68, Fair

This category evaluates whether the title, subtitle, and hero communicate Sciloop’s true value.

Sciloop’s headline is marked **vague**:

> “The hardest problems, built by the best minds.”

The supporting copy is:

> “Where IMO Gold Medalists, Codeforces Grandmasters, And Top Domain Experts Craft What No Model Can Solve — Yet.”

### Working

- Elite, specific credentials appear in the subhead.
- Dual CTAs reveal a two-sided market.
- University logos support the claim.

### Could improve

- The headline never says what Sciloop is.
- There are zero numbers or proof metrics.
- Buyer-side value is left unstated.

### Value-prop ranking

1. Handshake AI — **76**
2. Sciloop — **68**
3. Mercor — **58**
4. Turing — **58**
5. Scale AI — **52**
6. Surge AI — **48**

## CTA — 76, Fair

This category evaluates CTA copy, size, verb, and perceived cost or commitment.

The primary CTA shown in the report is:

> **Start earning as an expert →**

### Problems identified

- The CTA contains five words, exceeding the report’s three-word limit.
- “as an expert” may gate some visitors.

### CTA ranking

1. Sciloop — **76**
2. Handshake AI — **76**
3. Scale AI — **68**
4. Turing — **68**
5. Mercor — **58**
6. Surge AI — **42**

Our optional **CTA rewrite studio** generates primary and secondary CTA options grounded in Sciloop’s offer and visitor objections: [Rewrite this CTA](https://www.lazyweb.com/backlog?site=sciloop.dev#opt-cta-writing).

## Information hierarchy — 78, Fair

This category evaluates whether the design helps or inhibits the page’s intended message.

![Information hierarchy annotations on the desktop capture](https://zlfyzdmohcskkucuunmk.supabase.co/storage/v1/object/public/sites/growth-score/site/sciloop.dev.jpg?v=2026-09-22T00%3A32%3A46.03%2B00%3A00)

1. **Orange Platform nav link** — It uses the same orange accent as the primary CTA, giving a navigation exit extra scan-path weight.
2. **Get datasets button** — The second audience’s CTA sits beside the primary CTA at equal prominence, splitting the fold’s one action.
3. **Stripe badge chip** — The raw white logo chip inside the investor pill reads as a rendering glitch rather than social proof.

Our optional **Layout priority plan** turns these callouts into a sequenced plan to keep, move, merge, or remove elements: [View layout plan](https://www.lazyweb.com/backlog?site=sciloop.dev#opt-information-hierarchy).

## Mobile web — 78, Fair

This category evaluates the phone experience as a first-class experience.

![Mobile web annotations on the mobile capture](https://zlfyzdmohcskkucuunmk.supabase.co/storage/v1/object/public/sites/growth-score/site/sciloop.dev-mobile.jpg?v=2026-09-22T00%3A32%3A46.03%2B00%3A00)

1. **Three-line subheadline** — Title-case copy wraps into three slow-reading lines and pushes both CTAs lower in the fold.
2. **Investor badge pill** — The cycling logo has no name, communicates little on mobile, and competes with the headline for first attention.
3. **Get datasets button** — Low-contrast ghost styling makes the secondary path nearly invisible against the dark background.

Our optional **Mobile fix plan** converts these findings into a prioritized implementation checklist: [View mobile fixes](https://www.lazyweb.com/backlog?site=sciloop.dev#opt-mobile-web).
