Your verdict
Your page is interchangeable.
Put your page next to Aquifer and a buyer would struggle to tell them apart. You're less same than 7 of the 366 SaaS sites scored (SaaS avg 56).
Each named site is scored the same way, against the other 3 in this set, so its tick means the same as your marker. The dashed line is the frozen benchmark average.
More same than average
The average SaaS site scores 56; you scored 75.
You are 19 points more same than the average SaaS site.
Closest overlap: Aquifer
Of the 3 sites you named, Aquifer echoes the most of what your page says. Scored the same way against the rest of the set, Aquifer sits at 47.
Aquifer is the competitor you sound most like.
Room to own more
4% of your claim space is ownable: unique, relevant, and hard to copy.
4% is ownable, and every claim you own already leads.
Three changes worth testing first.
Chosen by rule from the comparison with Shadow Health, Sentinel U and Aquifer: the shared claim taking your most prominent space, then the claims only you make that sit too low on the page to be read. Each one links to its claim card.
- “Personalized feedback that helps faculty identify and close gaps”
Shadow Health, Sentinel U and Aquifer all say it too. Buyers may still need it, but shared ground cannot carry your hero — move it lower and give that space to something only you can say.
Table stakesMost of the set says this too. - “DDx delivers realistic, multi-role case simulation across every clinical competency and phase of education”
Keep the fact, lose the position: shadow Health, Sentinel U and Aquifer all say it too, and your hero is spending its first impression on the same territory as theirs.
Table stakesMost of the set says this too.
Try these changes, then test them with real buyers.
This measures overlap. Whether buyers notice is a different question, and only they can answer it.
What you can own
Claims only you make, that buyers weigh, and that competitors can’t easily copy.
4% of your page’s claim space is yours to keep.
Why this is not 100 minus the Sameness Index
The index is a weighted composite across six categories, including page structure and visuals. This bar is measured on your claims alone, weighted by where each one sits on the page. Different denominators, so the two never add to 100 and are not meant to.

Where you blend in

- Claim
- The grouped claim, then your exact line beneath it.
- Type
- What kind of claim it is: category, segment, outcome, capability, quality or proof.
- Placement
- Where it sits on your page: hero, section or body copy. Hero claims weigh most in the index.

- Sayability
- Whether a competitor could truthfully make the same claim: anyone could, copyable with effort, or hard to copy.
- Relevant
- Whether buyers decide on this. A unique claim nobody buys on is not ownable.
- Ownership
- Commodity: 60% or more of the set says it. Contested: 20–59%. Unique: under 20%, owned when it is also hard to copy.

How this was calculated
Sameness measures how much your claims overlap with the sites compared. It does not measure message quality or whether buyers prefer you.
AI-analyzed: an AI read each page on its own and grouped the claims that say the same thing. No score here was written by a model — every number is computed from those groupings in our own code, with the weights below.
How the score is built
| Category | Weight | Yours | What a high score means |
|---|---|---|---|
Messaging Category framing, who it is for, and the outcome promised | 30% | 100 | The most expensive kind of sameness. A buyer cannot tell what job you do that the others do not. |
Claims Attribute and benefit claims — speed, ease, quality, ROI | 30% | 100 | Every shared claim is a line already read on another tab. Cut the ones nobody owns and spend the space on something they cannot. |
Features Capabilities and functions the page lists | 15% | 64 | Expected in a mature category, and the least alarming of the six. Feature parity is normal; leading with it is the mistake. |
Proof The kinds of evidence offered: customer logos, numbers, testimonials, case studies, badges | 10% | 18 | Same kinds of proof as everyone means the proof stops working as proof. It is scored on the kind of evidence, not on which customers are named. |
Structure Section order, navigation, CTA language and placement | 10% | 11 | The generic SaaS template — hero, logos, three-feature grid, testimonial, CTA. Familiar is not the same as memorable. |
Visual Palette family, imagery style, layout patterns | 5% | 50 | Weighted lowest on purpose: buyers rarely decide on this. Worth knowing, rarely worth fixing first. |
Each site was read on its own first, with no knowledge of the others, so your page gets no benefit of the doubt a competitor’s does not. A category nothing could be measured for drops out and the rest are re-weighted, rather than counted as zero.
What we compared (4 pages read)
What it cannot tell you
The index can find where two pages converge. It cannot say whether a buyer would notice, or which of your reasons to buy actually land. A single check also moves several points between runs, so read the band and the ranking, not the last digit.
