The Growth Lead

Weighted verdict

Runs the testing programme for a German marketing team and reports uplift to the board. Wants a visual editor the team can use without a developer, targeting that goes beyond the URL, and results she can defend when finance asks where the promised revenue went.

Same scores as the panel view — this lens weights them the way this judge cares.

Scored by The Growth Lead

Experiment types & delivery

How this is scored

What can be tested and where: client-side changes through an editor, server-side and feature experiments through SDKs, multivariate and multi-page tests, and personalisation — judged on what the documentation shows rather than on the feature grid.

0 — Simple A/B split of one page element through a visual editor; no server-side option, no targeting beyond URL.

3 — Client-side A/B and split-URL tests with basic audience targeting, and no SDK or server-side delivery.

5 — Client-side and server-side experiments through documented SDKs for common languages, multivariate and multi-page tests, audience targeting on behaviour and attributes, and rule-based personalisation.

8 — Feature-flag-based experiments sharing one audience and metric model with web tests, mutually exclusive experiment groups, holdouts, edge or CDN delivery, and personalisation that can itself be tested against a control.

10 — One experimentation programme across every surface: web, app, server and edge from the same platform, experiment interactions managed, a documented experiment lifecycle from hypothesis to archived result, and a library of past results a team can search.

Report an error

The Growth Lead

The no-code editor means my team can build client-side tests without a developer, and open-source SDKs in thirty-plus languages plus warehouse-native deployment give us server-side testing on the same flag and metric model, with layers, holdouts and autotune for experiment interactions. The captured pages are silent on edge or CDN delivery, on multivariate and multi-page tests, and on any documented experiment lifecycle or searchable library of past results. 1 2

Statistical method & guardrails

How this is scored

Which statistics decide the winner and what protects the customer from misreading them. Scored on what the vendor documents: the method by name, how peeking and multiple comparisons are handled, and whether sample ratio mismatch is detected.

0 — A "winner" or "probability to beat" figure with no documented method, no stated sample-size guidance and no warning against stopping early.

3 — The method is named (frequentist or Bayesian) but its assumptions are not documented, and nothing prevents a test from being called while it is still underpowered.

5 — Documented method with confidence or credible intervals, a sample-size or test-duration calculator, and stated guidance on when a result may be read.

8 — Sequential testing or an equivalent documented protection against peeking, correction for multiple metrics or variants, sample ratio mismatch detection, variance reduction such as CUPED, and guardrail metrics that can stop a harmful test.

10 — The statistics are auditable: methodology published in enough detail to reproduce a result, the choice of method explained per use case, raw per-visitor data available for independent re-analysis, and the interface refuses to present an underpowered result as a conclusion.

Report an error

The Growth Lead

Sequential testing, CUPED, Bonferroni and Benjamini-Hochberg corrections, winsorization and power analysis are all named in public — enough that I can tell the board which method decided each winner — and warehouse-native deployment lets finance re-run the analysis on our own data. We found no public information on sample ratio mismatch detection, on guardrail metrics that could stop a harmful test, or on a methodology write-up detailed enough to reproduce a result. 2 1

Consent & visitor tracking

How this is scored

Whether the test script respects §25 TDDDG and the ePrivacy rules as evidenced on the vendor's own pages: when the script runs relative to consent, what it stores on the device, whether a cookieless or consent-free mode exists, and how visitor identifiers are handled.

0 — Nothing on the vendor's pages says what the script stores on the device or whether it runs before consent; consent is described as the customer's problem.

3 — Cookies or local storage are listed, and a consent integration is mentioned, but the documentation does not say what the script does before consent is given.

5 — Documented behaviour before and after consent, integration with common consent management platforms, a published list of cookies and storage keys with their lifetime, and IP anonymisation described.

8 — A documented consent-pending mode that holds tracking until consent while variants can still be served, a cookieless or first-party-only option, retention of visitor data stated, and guidance on the legal basis for testing in the EU.

10 — Built for §25 TDDDG: the default configuration stores nothing on the device without consent, a server-side or cookieless mode documented end to end, per-visitor data deletable on request, and the vendor states in writing how each mode maps to consent requirements.

Report an error

The Growth Lead

The privacy notice lists cookie categories — essential, performance, functionality, advertising — and says Global Privacy Control is honoured where required by law, but we found no public information on what the test script stores or does before consent is given, no published list of cookies with their lifetimes, and no consent-platform integration or cookieless mode for a German deployment under §25 TDDDG. 3

Snippet performance & flicker

How this is scored

The cost the client-side snippet imposes on the page it tests: blocking load, flicker of original content, script weight and the effect on Core Web Vitals — scored on what the vendor measures and publishes, not on "lightning fast".

0 — A synchronous snippet with no stated size, no flicker handling and no mention of performance.

3 — An anti-flicker snippet that hides the page until the test loads, with a timeout, and no published figures for script size or load cost.

5 — Script size and loading behaviour documented, asynchronous loading option, flicker handling explained with its trade-off, and CDN delivery of the snippet.

8 — Published performance figures including impact on Core Web Vitals, a self-hosting or first-party-domain option for the script, per-project bundles containing only active experiments, and a server-side or edge alternative for flicker-sensitive tests.

10 — Performance is a stated commitment: measured overhead published and maintained, flicker eliminated by edge or server-side rendering as a documented path, and tooling that shows the customer what their own configuration costs the page.

Report an error

The Growth Lead

A sub-millisecond post-init evaluation latency is published and the open-source server-side SDKs give an alternative path for flicker-sensitive tests, which lifts this above the basics. We found no public information on script weight, loading behaviour, anti-flicker handling or Core Web Vitals impact — and the one published figure covers evaluation after initialisation, not what the visitor's page pays. 1 2

Analytics, data export & integrations

How this is scored

Getting results and raw data out: integration with analytics and tag management, export of visitor-level results, warehouse-native analysis, and an API — because an experiment result that cannot be checked in the customer's own data is a claim, not a finding.

0 — Results visible in the vendor's dashboard only; no export, no analytics integration, no API.

3 — CSV export of aggregated results and one analytics integration, with no visitor-level data and no documented API.

5 — Integrations with common analytics and tag managers, export of results, and a documented API for managing experiments and reading results.

8 — Visitor-level raw data export or streaming to a data warehouse, warehouse-native analysis on the customer's own metrics, CDP integration for audiences, and an API with stated limits.

10 — The platform treats the customer's warehouse as the source of truth: metrics defined once and computed there, full historical experiment data exportable in open formats, and a versioned API a team can build its own programme tooling on.

Report an error

The Growth Lead

Warehouse-native deployment runs the experiment analysis in our own warehouse, and warehouse ingestion, outgoing integrations and a data export API are all listed — this is what lets me defend an uplift number with our own data when finance asks. We found no public information naming which analytics or CDP tools are supported, or on API rate limits and versioning. 2 1

European sovereignty

How this is scored

Where visitor data is processed and stored and who the contracting entity is. Independently sourced by the sovereignty pipeline; weighted higher here than in categories that hold only the customer's own data, because the script runs on every visitor to the customer's site and their behaviour is what the platform records.

0 — Non-EU vendor and contracting entity, hosting unstated, subprocessors unnamed, and visitor data leaving the EU without a stated safeguard.

3 — EU data residency offered as an option or an enterprise add-on while the contracting entity is non-EU, or the subprocessor list is absent.

5 — EU processing of visitor data as standard and an EU contracting entity, but parts of the chain — CDN, support access, analytics — are non-EU without an explained safeguard.

8 — EU hosting on named infrastructure including the delivery of the snippet, EU contracting entity, subprocessor list published, and a DPA covering the visitor data the script collects.

10 — Sovereign end to end and evidenced: vendor, entity, hosting, snippet delivery and every subprocessor European, certification published, and no visitor data reaching a non-EU party at any point.

Report an error

The Growth Lead

The contracting entities are Statsig, LLC in Bellevue and Amplitude, Inc. in San Francisco, the privacy notice says personal data may be transferred to the United States, and the only named processors are Google for login and Stripe for payments via Amplitude's site-wide notice; standard contractual clauses and the Data Privacy Framework are cited as safeguards. EU hosting is mentioned only within the enterprise warehouse-native offering, and we found no public information on EU processing of visitor data as standard. 4 3 2

Pricing transparency

How this is scored

A category priced by traffic — monthly tracked users, visitors or impressions — where the tier a site lands in depends on numbers the buyer has to estimate. Whether a buyer can compute the real annual cost including traffic limits, overage, server-side or personalisation modules and seats — from public pages alone.

0 — No public prices at all; every tier is a sales conversation.

3 — A starting price or a free tier exists, but the traffic metric, the limits and what happens above them are unstated — the invoice is unknowable.

5 — Tier prices public with the traffic metric and its limits defined, but at least one commonly needed piece (server-side SDKs, personalisation, overage) is unpriced or "contact sales".

8 — Every tier priced publicly with the traffic metric defined, limits, overage rates, module prices, minimum term and VAT treatment stated.

10 — Complete price computability: annual invoice derivable for a given traffic volume, set of modules and team size, with overage and every add-on published.

Report an error

The Growth Lead

The traffic metric is events and it is unusually well defined: free at 2M events per month with no credit card, Pro at $150/mo with 5M events included then $0.05 per 1K events, overages billed in the next period, one-month auto-renewing terms, and taxes stated as the customer's responsibility — I can compute a Pro invoice myself, right down to how exposure deduplication works. Warehouse-native and standalone analytics sit on the enterprise Custom tier, so the full stack my team would actually want remains a sales conversation. 2 4

European sovereignty — proven facts

3 of 4 dimensions proven

Built only from facts shown on the vendor's own pages. A dimension we could not prove is left open, not scored as zero.

Legal entity	Incorporated in US ⚠ unverified	0/3 pts	4 Report an error

Where this could be wrong

Evidence ages. The oldest capture behind this page is from 22 Sep 2026. Vendors change pricing and policies without notice; every fact reflects its source as of the capture date shown in the registry.
Weak sourcing — Ownership. The site states only the affiliation with Amplitude and nothing about Amplitude's own capital structure (e.g., whether it is publicly listed); the US location of the parent comes from the terms (Amplitude, Inc., Washington law) and the Bellevue, WA footer.
Weak sourcing — Legal entity. This is a choice-of-law clause rather than an incorporation statement: no imprint, register or country of incorporation is published, the contracting entity is given only as Amplitude, Inc., and the site footer names only Bellevue, WA.
Weak sourcing — Data residency. EU hosting appears only as a bare feature line in the pricing comparison and no page states where customer data is stored by default, so the default region is unclear.
Weak sourcing — Subprocessors. Not confirmed on the vendor’s own pages as captured.
AI can misread a source. Extraction and judgement are automated; a citation guarantees traceability, not infallibility. If something here is wrong, say so — no account needed, every report is decided within 5 business days, and accepted corrections are published.
