Information Density: Canidae – Signal Evidence & AI Readability

Canidae

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.

63% Reputation

Headings such as H2 Good for Pets and H2 Good for the Planet are pure fluff, offering zero specific data. However, substance is found in product-level H3s like NEW: Pure Protein Topper and body text specifying 2 key ingredients and wild-caught salmon. The ratio of generic ‘goodness’ branding to specific ingredient callouts is roughly balanced, preventing a higher BS penalty.

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.
