Conversion Experiment Brief

Design a controlled conversion experiment before launch. Specify assignment, outcomes, guardrails, statistical planning and stopping rules, then use validity checks and uncertainty to make a defensible rollout decision.

Agree the experiment before reading the result

This editable brief gives product, growth and analysis teams a common decision record. It connects the hypothesis to a stable comparison and reproducible measures, addresses monitoring and data-quality risks, and explains how to report useful improvement, harm, uncertainty or an invalid result.

Inside the template

01

Hypothesis and assignment

Define the investment decision, eligible population and assignment unit, including exposure, identity persistence and contamination risks.

02

Measures and analysis plan

Specify the conversion denominator, observation window, guardrails, information target and statistical approach before the first exposure.

03

Operation and decision

Monitor safety and validity, preserve the agreed endpoint and interpret effects with uncertainty and practical decision boundaries.

A few practical details

Does the brief provide a universal sample size?

No. It records the baseline, meaningful effect, analysis method and operating conditions used to calculate an appropriate information requirement.

Can the team monitor results during the experiment?

Safety and data quality should be monitored. Inferential monitoring and early stopping must follow the selected fixed-horizon or sequential method.

What should happen when a result is inconclusive?

Record what the uncertainty still permits and whether more evidence is worth obtaining. A non-significant result does not prove no effect or equivalence.
