Positioning
Where you sit in the head of the person who signs, not in your deck. Open Ground reads your claims against the claims already made by whoever ranks beside you, and flags every one that is not yours alone.
Claim overlap mapOpen Ground / In Private Build Every tool grades your website. None of them read the tab beside it.
Your buyer never judges your page alone. They judge it against the four other tabs open next to it, in the ten seconds before they close nine of them. Open Ground runs that comparison for you: your positioning, your live competitors, and the language your market already uses to describe the problem.
It returns the open ground: the one position none of them has taken, and the gaps costing you the deal. Not a score out of 100.

TOP FINDING
You are selling the feature the demo shows. Your buyers are buying the Monday morning it removes. Two competitors already say that out loud. That is the deal you are losing before anyone books a call.
Illustrative run on a made-up company. The engine is in private build, so nothing here is a customer result.
02 / The Engine
Four reads. In this order, because the order is the method.
Most tools start where it is easy: readability, meta tags, a colour contrast score. Those change nothing about whether a buyer picks you. These four decide it, and together they are what finds the open ground.
02
ICP
Who is actually buying, versus who the page is written for. Pulled from your own proof: case studies, reviews, the job titles in your testimonials, the language in your support docs.
Buyer versus audience gap03
Message
The specific sentences doing the damage, in the order a visitor meets them. Headline, subhead, first proof point, pricing frame. Each one rewritten, with the reason it changed.
Ranked rewrites04
Channel
Where the ready buyers already are, and which of your current channels is arguing with your positioning instead of carrying it.
Fit and conflict list03 / What Lands
A teardown you can hand to a writer on Monday.
Not a dashboard you have to interpret. A document with the decisions already made, and the reasoning attached so you can disagree with it.
Three gaps, ranked by revenue impact
Not thirty issues in a list. Three, ordered by what they cost you, with the evidence for the order.
Your page rewritten, line by line
Headline, subhead, proof, CTA. Before and after, side by side, with the reason each line moved.
The open ground
What the tabs beside you claim, where they are stronger, and the one position none of them has taken. That unclaimed position is the open ground, and it is the thing the product is named after.
A 30-day fix list
Ordered by effort against impact, so the first item can ship the same week you read it.
Every module is something already delivered by hand today, on real engagements, at a fixed fee. Open Ground is that work made repeatable. It is not a new promise looking for a method.
04 / Straight Answers
What Open Ground is, and what it is not.
What is Open Ground?
A positioning teardown that runs on your URL. It reads your site, the competitors ranking beside you today, and the words your buyers already use, then returns the messaging gaps costing you deals, ranked, plus the one market position none of your competitors has taken. That unclaimed position is the open ground, and finding it is the point of the product.
Is it live?
No. There is no login and no free trial behind this page. Open Ground is in private build, which is the entire reason the waitlist exists.
Is this another AI website grader?
A grader scores the page you already have. Open Ground reads the pages you are being compared against and tells you which position is still open. The comparison is the product.
Who is building it?
One senior B2B product marketer who has run this teardown by hand, personally, on real engagements. The framework is not theoretical. It is being automated because it already works.
