**Answer.** Across 109 area-annotated experiments from entertainment companies tracked by Lazyweb Research (51 experiments, 8 companies), the hero leads (26 annotations), then offer (16) and pricing (15) [1]. It is a small-company cut — 8 companies — so read the mix as a few heavy testers like Apple TV+ [1][2].

## The finding: hero-led with an even offer/pricing tail

Entertainment contributes 109 annotations across 51 experiments and 8 companies [1]. Its top areas are HERO (26), OFFER (16), and PRICING (15) — a hero-led shape with offer and pricing close behind [1]. With only 8 companies, this cut leans on a small set of prolific testers; Apple TV+ appears among the corpus's top testers [2].

## Entertainment top tested areas

Cells with n>=8 [1]:

| Area | Annotations |
|------|-------------|
| HERO | 26 |
| OFFER | 16 |
| PRICING | 15 |

The hero splits roughly evenly across web and mobile corpus-wide (272 web / 216 mobile), so entertainment hero tests could be on either surface [3].

## How to apply it

For a streaming or entertainment product, the peer pattern is hero-first, with offer and pricing as near-equal secondary bets [1]. Because offer and pricing carry the highest high-impact shares corpus-wide, treat the hero as the frequency lever and the paywall offer/price as the yield lever [4]. Keep hero tests focused on the value promise that justifies the subscription [1].

## Caveats

109 annotations from just 8 companies is a thin, concentrated cut — illustrative only [2]. Only n>=8 cells are shown [1]. Impact shares are model-assigned relative rankings, not lift [4].

| HERO splits 272 web / 216 mobile corpus-wide | area_HERO |
| OFFER high-impact share 66.4%, PRICING 53.8% corpus-wide | high_impact_share_by_area |

## Methodology

Universe is 109 area annotations from 8 entertainment-categorized companies within 2,160 annotations over 1,126 detected experiments in the ~800 tracked-apps corpus. Thin concentrated sample; areas LLM-annotated from observed before/after screenshots, July 2026; only n>=8 cells reported.
