Summary
Loopline's core loop works once a user is past onboarding, but the checklist bug in F-01 is actively costing activated signups, and the pricing-page 404 in F-02 is costing paid conversions outright. Neither requires a rebuild — both are fixable within a day of focused work. The bigger structural gap is operational readiness: there is no visible error tracking, so the team likely does not know how often F-01 and F-03 are happening in production right now.
Findings
F-01VERIFIEDCRITICALEFFORT MNOW
Signup completes but onboarding checklist never marks steps done
Reproduced on Chrome desktop and Safari iOS: completing step 2 of onboarding (connect a workspace) does not update the checklist state. Users we simulated as first-time signups re-attempted the step three times before abandoning.
F-02VERIFIEDHIGHEFFORT SNOW
Primary CTA on pricing page links to a 404
"Start free trial" on /pricing points to /signup-trial, which returns a 404. The correct route is /signup?plan=trial.
F-03OBSERVEDHIGHEFFORT MNEXT
Dashboard takes 6.2s to first meaningful paint on throttled 4G
Measured with Chrome DevTools network throttling (Fast 3G / 4x CPU slowdown). The delay is dominated by a client-side data fetch waterfall — three sequential requests before any dashboard content renders.
F-04INFERREDMEDIUMEFFORT MNEXT
Free-tier usage limit appears to be enforced inconsistently
Two test accounts hit different behavior at the same usage threshold — one was blocked, one was not. This points to a backend limit check that isn't applied uniformly, but confirming the cause needs backend access.
F-05NEEDS ACCESSMEDIUMEFFORT SLATER
No visible error tracking on failed API calls
We forced three API failures (offline toggle, malformed request) and saw no user-facing error state and no evidence of server-side capture. Confirming this needs read access to the error-tracking dashboard, if one exists.
F-06VERIFIEDLOWEFFORT SLATER
Inconsistent button corner radius between marketing site and app shell
Marketing site buttons use 8px radius; in-app buttons use 4px. Minor, but it reads as two different products stitched together.
