Designing flows without understanding what makes great ones actually work
Copying surface-level UI without understanding the decision logic underneath
No structured way to evaluate competitor UX or learn from it
Fixing symptoms (low conversion) without understanding the cause (poor flow design)

We identify the specific UX patterns that drive conversion and retention
We give you a framework for evaluating and improving your own flows
We show how to apply these decisions to your specific product category
What e-commerce founders gain from product teardown
