Recommendations first
The product is designed to surface a small number of issues that deserve attention, not a wall of metrics. A useful cue should explain the finding, why it may matter, the suggested action, and the evidence behind it.
Public signals, clearly labeled
Potential observations include public website content, local listings, reviews, local search visibility, and meaningful changes in nearby competitors. StudioCues does not infer retention, revenue, attendance, or other internal operating performance from these signals.
Confidence and limitations
Public information can be incomplete or delayed. Recommendations should preserve source provenance, collection timing, confidence, and known limitations. Higher-impact recommendations should be supported by more than one current signal where possible.
Relevant change, not constant noise
Monitoring should focus on meaningful changes that can support a practical action. Frequency may vary by signal and will be stated when monitoring capabilities are released.
