This Friction Score is a 60-second AI heuristic scan. The full Canary audit uses our Triple-AI Consensus Engine — five differentiated personas walked across Claude Sonnet 4.5, GPT-5, and Gemini 2.5 Pro — with line-by-line review by a Behavioral Architect on the Standard ($249) and Deep-Dive ($2,500+) tiers.

The Gap We Close

Your funnel is leaking revenue.You don't know where.

Most teams ship weekly and research quarterly — so the friction costing you sales sits in the funnel for months before anyone catches it. Canary closes that gap with synthetic personas walking your product the day you ask.

6 wk

Typical time to answer one product question via a traditional research firm.

$18K

Median cost of a standard UX research study (Rosenfeld Media, 2024).

8 of 50

Quarterly decisions a product team has real research for. The rest are guesses.

Process

Three days, end to end.

Not a chatbot demo. A real behavioral study — pre-registered, triangulated, and reviewed by a human Behavioral Architect before delivery.

01 · DAY ONE

Design & Pre-Register

Scope the question. Publish the hypothesis, the persona distribution, and the success criteria to our public Pre-Registration Ledger before a single simulation runs. No p-hacking. Verifiable at /validity/pre-registry.

02 · DAY TWO

Run & Triangulate

5 deeply-architected synthetic personas walk your product. The audit is re-run across three independent AI systems to find consensus.

03 · DAY THREE

Review & Deliver

Every report is signed against a published nine-pillar rigor framework and reviewed by a human Behavioral Architect before it reaches you.

The Moat

The methodology is published.

Nine pillars of rigor. Pre-registration, multi-model consensus, literature anchoring, adversarial validation, transparent limits. Every study Canary ships is signed against this framework.

Frequently Asked Questions

Honest answers, before you buy.

The four questions every prospect asks. If yours isn't here, email us — we publish answers as we get them.

Can Canary audit pages behind a login?

Yes — for the Base ($149) and Standard ($249) tiers, we audit the public-facing flow (landing, pricing, signup, checkout). For the Deep-Dive Study ($2,500+), we can audit behind-the-login flows you provide test credentials for, including state-dependent screens, multi-step wizards, authenticated dashboards, and CSV upload paths. Application Programming Interface (API) integration tests and connector flows are out of scope for synthetic agents — those still need real users. We will tell you up front what synthetic personas can and cannot test on your specific product before you buy.

How long does an audit take?

The Base Audit ($149, automated) is delivered in minutes. The Standard ($249, Human-Verified) is guaranteed in 48 hours from kickoff to signed report. Deep-Dive Studies ($2,500+) run 7–10 business days because of the additional flows, custom persona engineering, and the human Behavioral Architect's deeper review pass.

What model stack do you use?

Our Triple-AI Consensus Engine runs three frontier AI systems independently against your product: Claude Sonnet 4.5, GPT-5, and Gemini 2.5 Pro. We only ship findings all three agreed on. Findings two of three surfaced are flagged for review; single-model signals are quarantined for Behavioral Architect judgment. On the Standard ($249) and Deep-Dive ($2,500+) tiers, a Behavioral Architect signs every report after a line-by-line review pass.

What's the refund policy?

Full refund within 7 days of delivery if the findings are not actionable. We define "actionable" up front in the kickoff brief — if the report doesn't meet that bar, you don't pay.
