Why Privacy-First Analytics Still Leaves Teams Guessing

Privacy-first dashboards are great for reporting. But most teams still need a system that turns PDP data into a prioritized fix list—and a safe ship loop that protects conversion KPIs after every change.

Analytics shows numbers, not what to change on PDPs
Hard to prioritize fixes without element-level correlation to conversions
No built-in workflow from insight → ship → verification
No KPI guardrails and instant rollback when changes regress conversion
