CTA

78Fair

Copy, size, verb, cost-feel — does the primary CTA earn the click?

Rhizome AIin-product action

Problems

  • icon-only submit, no promise
  • generic placeholder, no domain cue
  • no 'free' despite free tier in nav
  • nav 'Start free' competes with input

Mobile web

82Strong

The phone experience as a first-class citizen.

Mobile web annotations on the mobile capture12
  1. Submit arrow button — Small, low-contrast, unlabeled arrow is the only submit affordance — not thumb-friendly or self-explanatory.
  2. Hamburger menu icon — Hides the desktop 'Start free' CTA entirely; no visible signup path in the mobile fold.

Information hierarchy

84Strong

Does the design help or inhibit what the page is trying to say?

Information hierarchy annotations on the desktop capture1234
  1. Start free button — Second styled CTA competes with the ask box for the primary action; visitors split between signup and trying a query.
  2. Ask box submit arrow — Primary action is an unlabeled icon at low contrast — no verb tells the visitor what happens on submit.
  3. Nav link cluster — Six links plus two dropdowns above the fold offer exits before the visitor reaches the ask box.
  4. Stat chip micro-copy — Tiny all-caps letterspaced type makes the strongest proof point (84.6M pages) nearly illegible at a glance.

Value props

84Strong

Title, subtitle, hero — do they sell the product's true value?

Rhizome AI’s headline sellsKnow what your regulator thinks.Instantly answer each question citing up to 1,000 docs from health authority databases without hallucinations.

Working

  • Headline hits the core anxiety of the ICP
  • Specific proof: 84.6M pages, 17 countries
  • 'Without hallucinations' preempts AI doubt

Could improve

  • 'Up to 1,000 docs' is a spec, not an outcome
  • Domain (health authority) buried mid-subhead
  • Empty ask box gives no example query
