Sameness · vs 2 named
How is this calculated?

Your page is mostly the same.

Most of what your page says, TestGorilla says too. You're less same than 2 of the 8 HR / HCM suites sites scored (category avg 67).

Benchmarked against HR / HCM suites (the category you chose).
Sameness Index on a 0 to 100 scale, from distinctive at 0 to interchangeable at 100. This page scores 73. Hirevue scores 70. TestGorilla scores 68. The category avg is 67.

Each named site is scored the same way, against the other 2 in this set, so its tick means the same as your marker. The dashed line is the frozen benchmark average.

  1. More same than average

    The average HR / HCM suites category leader scores 67; you scored 73.

    You are 6 points more same than the average HR / HCM suites category leader.

  2. Closest overlap: TestGorilla

    Of the 2 sites you named, TestGorilla echoes the most of what your page says: 77% of it, weighted by placement. Scored the same way you were, against the rest of the set, TestGorilla's own Sameness Index is 68. Those are different measures: the first is overlap with your page, the second is how same TestGorilla's whole page is.

    TestGorilla is the competitor you sound most like.

  3. Room to own more

    6% of your claim space is ownable: unique, relevant, and hard to copy. 2 of those claims sit in body copy, where few readers reach them.

    6% is ownable, and 2 buried opportunities could help you stand out more.

Do this first

Three changes worth testing first.

Chosen by rule from the comparison with Hirevue and TestGorilla: 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.

  1. “scaled by AI”

    Hirevue and TestGorilla 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 stakes
    Most of the set says this too.
  2. “GDPR-compliant”

    Nobody in the set says this. It sits in body copy, where few readers reach it — worth testing higher up the page; only buyers can tell you whether it lands.

    Surface
    Yours alone. Test it higher up.
  3. “Stop gambling on interviews”

    A claim that is yours alone, filed in body copy. Try it where it will be read before the shared claims are, and let buyers tell you if it moves them.

    Surface
    Yours alone. Test it higher up.

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.

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.

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
The six category scores, their weights, and what a high score in each one means
CategoryWeightYoursWhat a high score means
Messaging
Category framing, who it is for, and the outcome promised
30%85The 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%86Every 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%81Expected 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%45Same 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%23The 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%47Weighted 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 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.

Your highest-impact changes

  1. 1
    Table stakesYour hero copy says “scaled by AI”.
