Information Density: Delavan – Signal Evidence & AI Readability

Information Density — The Lens

Classify each sentence as substantive or hollow. Grounding markers — numbers, currencies, dates, technical units, named entities — outweigh marketing adjectives. When fluff sits right next to hard evidence, the fluff is forgiven.

Info Density Power-words vs. Substance ratio.

The site exhibits high substance in its product descriptions, particularly on the SDX V page, which details 8-part construction, specific materials like 316 Stainless Steel and Tungsten Carbide, and precision increments of 0.001 inches. Headings are generally noun-heavy (e.g., ‘SDX V Assembly Procedure’), though the H1 on the homepage uses generic power words like ‘Technical Expertise.’ Body text maintains a high ratio of technical protocols over marketing fluff.

Information Density is read straight from the body copy: how much of the text carries grounded, checkable substance versus hollow filler. Below is the clean text the engine analyzed, then the industry’s known generic-claim patterns to weigh it against.
