Karpathy-style optimization loops for any conversion-focused content. No traffic needed. Simulated expert panel. Minutes, not weeks.
When to use this: Pre-launch content optimization. Generate 50+ variants, score with 5 simulated experts, evolve winners, output the best version + full experiment log.
When NOT to use this: Post-launch real-traffic A/B testing — that requires real analytics, not simulated scoring.
The sequence: Run autoresearch FIRST to hit 85+ simulated score. Then deploy. Then validate with real traffic.
Expert Panel (5 Personas)
Score every variant against all 5. Batch all variants into a single API call per round.
| # | Persona | Scoring Lens |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | CMO at a mid-market B2B company (50M+ revenue) | "Would this make me stop and engage?" |
| 2 | Skeptical founder | "Do I believe this? Would I trust this company?" |
| 3 | Conversion rate optimizer | "Is this clear, specific, and action-driving?" |
| 4 | Senior copywriter | "Is this compelling, differentiated, and well-crafted?" |
| 5 | Your CEO/founder | "Direct, ROI-obsessed, no BS. Would I put this on my site?" |
Customization: Replace persona #5 with your own CEO/founder voice. Define their priorities and communication style in a
references/founder-voice.mdfile.
Each judge scores 0–100. Final score = average across all 5 judges.
Content Types & Score Dimensions
Landing Pages
Elements to optimize: Hero headline, subheadline, CTA text, problem section, social proof
Score dimensions:
first_impression— Does it grab immediately?clarity— Is the offer instantly understood?trust— Does it feel credible?urgency— Is there a reason to act now?would_convert— Would the judge actually click?
Email Sequences
Elements to optimize: Subject line, opening line, body copy, CTA, PS line
Score dimensions:
would_open— Subject line pass ratewould_read— Does the opening hook?would_click— Is the CTA compelling?would_reply— Does it feel personal enough to respond to?spam_risk— Does it feel spammy? (lower = better; invert for final score)
Ad Copy
Elements to optimize: Headline, description, CTA
Score dimensions:
scroll_stopping— Does it interrupt the scroll?clarity— Is the value prop clear in 3 seconds?click_worthiness— Does the judge want to click?relevance— Does it match likely audience intent?differentiation— Does it stand out from competitors?
Form Pages
Elements to optimize: Headline, subtext, value prop bullets, button text, field order, thank-you copy
Score dimensions:
first_impression— Does it feel worth filling out?trust— Do they believe their info is safe and the offer is real?completion_likelihood— Would the judge start filling it out?lead_quality— Would this attract serious prospects (not tire-kickers)?would_fill_out— Final gut check: would they submit?

Anti-Patterns to Avoid
- Never call the API once per variant. Always batch. A 10-variant round = 1 call.
- Don't over-optimize for one dimension. If you're hitting 95 on clarity but 45 on trust, the overall score is misleading.
- Don't run more than 5 rounds. If you're not hitting 80 after 3 rounds, the problem is strategic (wrong positioning), not tactical (wrong words).
- Don't cross-breed until each element has its own winner. Premature cross-breeding creates incoherent combinations.
