Information Density: Asendia – Signal Evidence & AI Readability

Asendia

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.
23 Impact Weight: 30 / 100
77% Reputation

The site exhibits a mixed ratio of power words and substance. H2 headings like Grow, Improve, and Save are pure marketing fluff, but they are countered by high-density H4 headings such as 2,000+ experts, 17 countries, 200+ destinations. The body text provides concrete details about the joint venture between La Poste and Swiss Post, which adds significant substance compared to generic competitors.

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.
