The 3 leaks costing them the most

1 The hero needs a decoder ring

Why it hurts: 'Think fast, build faster / Brainstorm in chat, build in Cowork' assumes you know what Cowork is (#20). A first-timer can't tell what they'll actually do here.

Fix: Add a plain line: 'Chat with Claude to write, code, analyze, and get real work done.'

2 It tries to be everything

Why it hurts: Claude, Claude Code, Cowork, Security, Chrome, Slack, M365, Skills (#11) β€” the product menu sprawls before the visitor has done one thing.

Fix: Lead with the single core use, then reveal the platform.

3 Free-led, login-first, barely shown

Why it hurts: A free plan fronts a login-first funnel (#1, #8) and only 3 images appear (#10). For a visual, interactive product, that's almost nothing.

Fix: Show Claude actually doing something impressive before asking anyone to sign in.

All 31 principles, scored

Fix: Make the premium value explicit.
