Pilots need a hypothesis

Define what you are testing: time to deliver a complete plot pack, reduction in repeated buyer questions, or fewer missing items at week four post-reservation. Without a hypothesis, a pilot becomes a press release.

Governance and data ethics

Be clear who can see what, how long data is retained, and how you label developer-issued documents versus owner uploads after sale.

Measurement without invented statistics

Report what you measured and what you did not. Credibility beats vanity claims.
