## CTA — 78, Fair

The CTA review considers copy, size, verb, and cost-feel: whether the primary action earns the click.

![Rhizome AI CTA review capture](https://zlfyzdmohcskkucuunmk.supabase.co/storage/v1/object/public/sites/growth-score/site/rhizomeai.com.jpg?v=2026-09-22T21%3A14%3A38.538%2B00%3A00)

The reviewed action is Rhizome AI’s in-product ask box. The report identifies these problems:

- The submit control is icon-only and makes no promise.
- The placeholder is generic and provides no domain cue.
- The page does not say “free” despite a free tier in the navigation.
- The navigation’s “Start free” action competes with the input.

CTA ranking:

1. Rhizome AI — 78
2. DDi RegulatoryOne (Regulatory Intelligence) — 68
3. Basil Systems — 58
4. Cortellis Regulatory Intelligence (Clarivate) — 44

[Rewrite this CTA](https://www.lazyweb.com/backlog?site=rhizomeai.com#opt-cta-writing) to generate primary and secondary CTA options grounded in Rhizome AI’s offer and visitor objections.

## Mobile web — 82, Strong

The review treats the phone experience as a first-class part of the landing page.

![Mobile web annotations on the mobile capture](https://zlfyzdmohcskkucuunmk.supabase.co/storage/v1/object/public/sites/growth-score/site/rhizomeai.com-mobile.jpg?v=2026-09-22T21%3A14%3A38.538%2B00%3A00)

1. **Submit arrow button:** The small, low-contrast, unlabeled arrow is the only submit affordance; it is not thumb-friendly or self-explanatory.
2. **Hamburger menu icon:** It hides the desktop “Start free” CTA, leaving no visible signup path in the mobile fold.

## Information hierarchy — 84, Strong

![Information hierarchy annotations on the desktop capture](https://zlfyzdmohcskkucuunmk.supabase.co/storage/v1/object/public/sites/growth-score/site/rhizomeai.com.jpg?v=2026-09-22T21%3A14%3A38.538%2B00%3A00)

The report identifies four hierarchy issues:

1. **Start free button:** A second styled CTA competes with the ask box for the primary action, splitting visitors between signup and trying a query.
2. **Ask box submit arrow:** The primary action is an unlabeled, low-contrast icon, so no verb tells visitors what happens when they submit.
3. **Navigation link cluster:** Six links plus two dropdowns above the fold create exits before visitors reach the ask box.
4. **Stat-chip microcopy:** Tiny, all-caps, letterspaced type makes the strongest proof point—84.6M pages—nearly illegible at a glance.

## Value props — 84, Strong

The review asks whether the title, subtitle, and hero sell the product’s true value.

### Rhizome AI’s headline

> **“Know what your regulator thinks.”**
>
> “Instantly answer each question citing up to 1,000 docs from health authority databases without hallucinations.”

### What works

- The headline addresses the core anxiety of the ideal customer profile.
- Specific proof includes **84.6M pages** and **17 countries**.
- “Without hallucinations” preempts doubt about AI answers.

### What could improve

- “Up to 1,000 docs” is a specification rather than an outcome.
- The health-authority domain is buried in the middle of the subhead.
- The empty ask box gives no example query.

Value-proposition ranking:

1. Rhizome AI — 84
2. Basil Systems — 58
3. DDi RegulatoryOne (Regulatory Intelligence) — 56
4. Cortellis Regulatory Intelligence (Clarivate) — 38
