46
Sameness · vs 4 named
How is this calculated?

Your page is half shared.

About half of what your page says, Autenti also says. You're less same than 7 of the 8 E-signature sites scored (category avg 63).

Benchmarked against E-signature (inferred from the competitors you named).
Sameness Index on a 0 to 100 scale, from distinctive at 0 to interchangeable at 100. This page scores 46. Docusign scores 58. Clio scores 42. Thomson Reuters (Legal) scores 39. Autenti scores 44. The category avg is 63.

Each named site is scored the same way, against the other 4 in this set, so its tick means the same as your marker. The dashed line is the frozen benchmark average.

  1. Less same than average

    The average E-signature category leader scores 63; you scored 46.

    You are 17 points less same than the average E-signature category leader.

  2. Closest overlap: Autenti

    Of the 4 sites you named, Autenti echoes the most of what your page says. Scored the same way against the rest of the set, Autenti sits at 44.

    Autenti is the competitor you sound most like.

  3. Room to own more

    29% of your claim space is ownable: unique, relevant, and hard to copy. 3 of those claims sit in body copy, where few readers reach them.

    29% is ownable, and 3 buried opportunities could help you stand out more.

Do this first

Three changes worth testing first.

Chosen by rule from the comparison with Docusign, Clio, Thomson Reuters (Legal) and Autenti: 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. Secure document workspace - EU hosted

    Docusign, Clio and Autenti say it too (75% of the set). 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. any relying party can integrate to a ZealiD API to receive data from a subscriber

    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. audited annually under the same security standards this check draws on

    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%35The 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%67Every 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%51Expected 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%37Same 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%17The 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%44Weighted 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 “Secure document workspace - EU hosted”.

    Docusign, Clio and Autenti say it too (75% of the set). 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.

  2. 2
    Table stakesYour section copy says “Trust Circle brings enterprise-grade security to everyday client interactions”.

    Keep the fact, lose the position: docusign, Clio and Autenti say it too (75% of the set), and your section is spending its first impression on the same territory as theirs.

  3. 3
    Table stakesYour section copy says “delight your users with excellent user experience”.

    This is the set's common ground — Docusign, Thomson Reuters (Legal) and Autenti say it too (75% of the set). It will not set you apart wherever it sits, and in the section it costs you the one place a distinctive claim would be read.

  4. 4
    Table stakesYour section copy says “identity wallet seamlessly integrated with eSigning, human capital, and identity and access management provid…”.

    A buyer with three tabs open reads a version of this on every one of them. Say it further down for the readers who need it; the section should carry a claim they will only find here.

  5. 5
    Table stakesYour section copy says “supports 24 languages”.

    True of you and true of them: Docusign, Thomson Reuters (Legal) and Autenti say it too (75% of the set). That is why it decides nothing, and why the section is the wrong place to spend it.

  6. 6
    Table stakesYour section copy says “integrated with major cloud agreement and signature platforms such as Adobe, Docusign, and Entrust”.

    In the section: True of you and true of them: Docusign, Clio and Autenti say it too (75% of the set). That is why it decides nothing, and why the section is the wrong place to spend it.

  7. 7
    Table stakesYour section copy says “trusted by Microsoft, Volvo, ABN AMRO, Nike, KONE, Atlas Copco and Adobe (logos)”.

    In the section: This is the set's common ground — Docusign, Clio and Autenti say it too (75% of the set). It will not set you apart wherever it sits, and in the section it costs you the one place a distinctive claim would be read.

  8. 8
    Table stakesYour body copy says “ABN AMRO business clients can sign credit and guarantee documentation digitally with ZealiD (CEO quote)”.

    In the body: True of you and true of them: Docusign, Clio and Autenti say it too (75% of the set). That is why it decides nothing, and why the body is the wrong place to spend it.

  9. 9
    Surface“any relying party can integrate to a ZealiD API to receive data from a subscriber” is yours alone, and buyers weigh it.

    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.

  10. 10
    Surface“audited annually under the same security standards this check draws on” is yours alone, and buyers weigh it.

    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.

  11. 11
    Surface“qualified certificates with liability coverage” is yours alone, and buyers weigh it.

    No competitor page makes this claim. Today it is in body copy; it is a candidate for the space the table-stakes lines are taking.

The only way to know if it matters.

This report can tell you where your messaging overlaps. It cannot tell you whether a buyer would care, or which of your reasons to buy actually land. Put the page in front of real B2B buyers in your target market and ask them.
