Limits and method

22

Limitations and open questions

Known constraints and missing evidence from the collected pages.

The collected pages do not mention specific competitors. Evidence gaps include: no detailed pricing for Business plan, no customer counts, no independent review content beyond G2 rating, and no uptime or performance metrics. Open questions: how relationship scores are calculated beyond email metadata, and what 'unlimited' means for API usage on Professional.

23

Sources, method, and limitations

Evidence inventory, collection method, provider use, and constraints.

This report is based on 15 collected pages from ctd.ai, including the homepage, about, pricing, integrations, and educational pages. The evidence catalog includes 180 items from static and rendered pages. External proof search was performed but no verification requests were made. Limitations: some pages may have been missed, and claims from search snippets were not used unless verified.
