Commodity Fingerprint — The Lens

The value proposition ’empower artists to manage their music and revenue’ is a quintessential industry cliché that could be applied to any distributor or streaming service. Template fingerprints like ‘Learn more’ and ‘Get started’ are the only calls to action, lacking any unique positioning or specific offer. The ‘Oops, you’re way out there’ 404 page is a standard boilerplate that reinforces the lack of unique, substantive content on the secondary pages.

Commodity Fingerprint is read from the page structure first: templated copy tends to repeat the same heading patterns and shapes seen across an industry. Below is the heading hierarchy captured, then the known cliché patterns for this industry to weigh it against.
