This is a working record. It preserves the evidence available now and should change when later work provides better evidence.
Question
Can a visitor understand what Baron Creative is, why AlexOS matters, what evidence exists, and what to do next—without being asked to interpret unfinished product promises?
Conditions
- The existing production site and in-progress redesign were inspected without deployment.
- The journey was tested across desktop and mobile viewports.
- Lint, TypeScript, and production-build checks were treated as evidence, not administrative cleanup.
- Later ideas were separated from V1 responsibilities before implementation.
Observations
- The institutional tone and visual restraint were distinctive enough to preserve.
- Long hero typography and navigation clipped on mobile, interrupting orientation at the first encounter.
- Eight empty route files created public-looking promises while preventing a valid production build.
- Page-local style systems repeated the same decisions and made extension expensive.
- The original AlexOS page described many future capabilities but did not provide one complete evidence path.
Decisions
- Keep five AlexOS routes in V1: Overview, How It Works, Workshop, Trials, and individual Trial records.
- Defer Models, Panel Sessions, Search, and Local until each performs a real public function.
- Make the primary journey Baron Creative → AlexOS → Workshop/How It Works → Trial → Contact.
- Replace simulated interaction with an honest description of what the Workshop currently offers.
- Centralize typography, spacing, navigation, surfaces, responsive behavior, and motion primitives.
Limits
- This Trial evaluates the public experience and implementation system; it is not a comparative model benchmark.
- It does not claim conversion improvement before instrumentation and meaningful traffic exist.
- Its conclusions should be revised when real visitor behavior contradicts them.
