Why we did this

The Teams page repeated the cost table, made team membership a free-text box, and had no way to match observed people to the real organization.

What happened

Eight page versions and nine studies of the team summary strip, ending at a ship candidate. The review never happened; its best ideas fed later landing and Teams work.

Before (c61): idea 1, one risk story per person — Before → afterPeople ranked by risk, with how many are mapped to teams, which use personal keys, and a slim spend view.

After: the ship candidate, with a mapped share, an identity column and a consumer-key warning — Before → afterPeople ranked by risk, with how many are mapped to teams, which use personal keys, and a slim spend view.

Also in this cycle

The team summary strip got a different small chart for each question, picked by side-by-side tests. New in this cycle
The review never ran; the strip ideas became candidates for the Team landing page instead. In words

How we got here

Each change, traced back to the conversation it came from. A solid mark means the record names the source; a dashed one was matched by the draft and waits for review.

Set the four product rules and steered the strip studies

Ruled where spend, team membership and credentials live, and that mocks come before code; called the course correction after the overshoot study, added Tokens as a sixth lens, and later folded the ideas into the landing pages.
