Every test runs on a live audience so we can capture real behavioral signals. The plan you choose sets your minimum audience signals and your confidence level. No matter which option you choose, you receive your Stopping Power Rating, detailed diagnostics, heatmaps, human attention response and a complete insight report.
Audience signals represent the number of real people who had an Opportunity To View (OTV) your creative. Each OTV reflects a natural moment where someone could notice your asset. By observing these moments, we measure actual attention rather than opinions or self reported recall. Audience signals allow us to simulate real world attention competition so you can see how your creative performs when people are choosing what to look at, not what to say.
