A/B TESTING at the speed of light

Test anything. Slow nothing.

Uniform runs experimentation at the edge on your CDN: no third-party scripts, no flicker, no Core Web Vitals penalty. Test a headline, a component, or an entire experience composed from any source, and read the results with significance built in.

THE TESTING GAP

Continuous testing made possible

Testing tools have been affordable and widely available for a decade, yet most teams run only a handful of tests annually.

01

Flicker

The variant swap every visitor sees: the default paints, the script fires, and the page rewrites itself while they are looking at it.

02

Core Web Vitals

The clumsy script tag your SEO team warned against: a third-party request loading on every page of the site.

03

Variant production

Opportunities wilt waiting for the B to be built. The hypothesis is there; production is the bottleneck.

04

Tool churn

Standalone testing tools get pulled from their users, and the program fades with the contract.

05

Data silos

With results in one tool and revenue in another, the test for worked never quite ends.

06

What do we test first

Without a solid plan, the backlog fills with changes where nothing will be learned.

Six things stop testing programs: visible flicker, the script tag that damages Core Web Vitals, variant production, tool churn, split data, and not knowing what to test first. Uniform answers four of them directly and removes two outright.

HOW IT WORKS

Turn one component into two

Pick the component, set the goal, and add a variant. When the needle moves, you know exactly which change moved it, as each variant reports its own effect on the goal you chose.

A demo EcoQuest travel site with an A/B test running on its hero component. Variant A is a classic hero and variant B is an experience-first hero. A testing checklist shows the hero component marked as different, while featured destinations and page layout are marked as the same. A results panel reports each variant's rate against the goal of starting a tour search, with variant B ahead. The figures shown are sample data.

One component tested, two variants, everything else held the same.

  • the test toggle on the component itself, running
  • the checklist: hero different, everything else held the same
  • a rate per variant against the goal you set

One component on one page is put into a test. The hero is the only thing that differs between variant A and variant B; the featured destinations and the page layout are identical in both, which is what makes the result readable. Each variant then reports its own rate against a single chosen goal, so the winner is a measurement rather than an opinion.

PERFORMANCE NOT COMPROMISED

The test happens before the page paints

Variant assignment resolves on the CDN you run, serving the visitor a complete page rather than one that corrects itself in front of them.

01

Nothing swaps

Variant assignment resolves at the edge, giving every visitor a complete, final page. Nothing swaps, nothing flickers, nothing blocks render.

02

Any CDN

The same edges that run your personalization run your experiments, in your existing delivery pipeline.

03

SEO-safe by design

No client-side rewrites and no cloaking patterns, so testing never puts rankings or Core Web Vitals at risk.

Uniform assigns the variant at the edge. The script-tag path paints a default page, waits for a script, then swaps the content in view, which causes the flicker.

THE UNIT OF EXPERIMENTATION

Beyond button colors: test the experience itself

Uniform tests at the composition layer, empowering you to experiment with anything the platform composes, from any source.

Test a component.

Two heroes, three CTAs, alternative product cards: classic A/B, configured visually on the component, no code.

Test a composition.

Different page structures, section orders, or layouts against each other: the tests that move numbers most and that script-tag tools cannot express.

Test across sources.

Because Uniform composes content, commerce, and data, you can test a CMS-authored hero against a commerce-driven product list, or one recommendation logic against another. If it can be composed, it can be tested.

One slot in one composition renders either variant A or variant B, and both variants draw on the same composed sources: content from a CMS and products from commerce. The traffic split above the slot decides which visitor sees which.

From multivariate to simple A/B test, every variant remains a managed, reusable entity.

ONE PLATFORM, ONE LOOP

Test to learn. Personalize to apply. Repeat.

In most stacks, testing and personalization are separate tools with separate data, breaking the loop between them. In Uniform, they run on the same components, audiences, and insights: test broadly to learn what wins, personalize the winner to the segments it wins for, then test again inside those segments. Each cycle compounds the previous learnings, and nothing is rebuilt between steps as the variant, the audience, and the experience live in one platform.

TESTbroadly, to find what wins
LEARNsessions, uplift, significance
PERSONALIZEthe winner, to the segment it won with
and again, inside those segments

Three steps on a circle: test broadly to learn what wins, read the result in insights, then personalize the winner to the segments it wins for. The next test starts inside those segments, so the loop closes rather than ending.

MEASUREMENT

Significance is not a vibe

Uniform ships insights with the platform, so every test reports its own sessions, uplift, and significance, and the decision to keep a variant or replace it is made on evidence.

The Uniform Insights dashboard: sessions, conversion rate and optimized conversion as KPI cards with trend lines, top pages and top visitor segments, an audience profile radar, and tables of active tests and active personalizations showing sessions, uplift and significance, alongside cards for component uplift, audience insight, and export to analytics tools.

The losing test is still on screen. That is what testing is for.

  • sessions, uplift and significance, per active test
  • per-test results, winners and losers side by side
  • export to the analytics your business already reports in

The insights dashboard reports sessions, conversion rate, and optimized conversion as KPI cards, and lists every active test and personalization in one table.

Every test carries its own math.

Every test reports sessions, uplift, and statistical significance individually, so decisions wait for evidence, not opinions.

Losing tests are results too.

Retiring an under-performer is the cheapest optimization you will make all quarter, and the dashboard shows the losers as plainly as the winners.

Your analytics stays your analytics.

Every event also streams to Google Analytics, Adobe Analytics, or your analytics of choice, so experiment results live where the business reports.

One table for the whole program.

Every active test sits in one place without stitching reports together to get results.

NEWTHE OPTIMIZATION AGENT

From a tool to a program

The gap between owning a testing tool and running a testing program is labor: someone must source the hypotheses, build the variants, watch the numbers, and act on them. Scout is that someone.

Scout, Uniform's agent, drawn as a fox in layered paper craft wearing dark sunglasses and a red scarf.
01

Proposes the tests.

Hypotheses drawn from your audiences, pages, and insights, prioritized by expected impact.

02

Builds the variants.

The B, C, and D versions generated within your brand standards.

03

Watches the math.

Significance and uplift monitored continuously, ending tests when the evidence is in.

04

Acts on results.

Winners proposed for promotion and follow-up tests suggested, in autonomous or review mode, with humans approving what ships.

The four steps run as a loop: Scout proposes the tests, builds the variants, watches significance and uplift, then acts on the result and feeds what it learned into the next hypothesis.

Hypotheses, variants, significance, and the decision: one agent, your approval.

FOR DEVELOPERS

A tool that will win over your developers

Testing tools are often how script-tag arguments begin. Uniform ends it: no third-party JavaScript, variant assignment at the edge you already deploy to, and experiments that ship through the same review process as everything else.

YOUR FRAMEWORK
  • React
  • Next.js
  • Svelte
  • Vue
  • Astro
  • Angular
Uniform variant assignment
YOUR EDGE
  • Akamai
  • Cloudflare
  • Vercel
  • Netlify

Your framework renders the experience and your edge serves it; variant assignment runs inside that existing pipeline rather than adding a vendor to the request path.

Your framework, untouched.

React, Next.js, Svelte, Vue, Astro, Angular: tests render through the components you wrote, using SDKs that fit the framework you run.

Your edge, not ours.

Akamai, Cloudflare, Vercel, Netlify: assignment runs on the CDN and hosting you deploy to, with no new infrastructure and no second vendor in the request path.

Nothing to apologize for in the audit.

No third-party script in the visitor's browser and no client-side rewrite, keeping Core Web Vitals exactly where your team fought to get them. Experiments ship through the same CI/CD and review process as everything else you deploy.

The stack remains.  Only the experiments change.

WHERE TO START

Five tests to run this quarter

These run on pages you already have. Pick which matches your next campaign, ship it, and let the result choose the next one.

Hero test on your highest-traffic landing page

Two headlines and two supporting images on the page that already has the traffic, so the result arrives in days rather than quarters.

Low effort

CTA copy and placement on the money pages

The wording and the position of the primary action on the pages that carry revenue, changed one variable at a time so the answer is readable.

Low effort

Section order on a key journey page

A composition test: the same content in a different structure, to find out whether proof before pricing beats pricing before proof.

Medium effort

Product-list logic: curated versus data-driven

An editor's picks against a data-driven list in the same slot, which is the test a script-tag tool cannot express.

Medium effort

Campaign page variants per inbound channel

One landing page with one variant per channel, ensuring paid, social, and email visitors get the experience they were promised.

Medium effort

FAQ

What to know before the first test

Five questions that can help you decide what's best for your team.

Not with edge-side testing. Uniform assigns variants at the CDN edge before the page renders, so there is no third-party script, no client-side swap, and no flicker: Core Web Vitals stay intact and no cloaking patterns are involved. Performance damage was a script-tag problem, not a testing problem.

Yes. Uniform tests at the composition layer, so anything it composes can be tested: content from your CMS, products from your commerce platform, and data from any source, at component, composition, or whole-experience level, without moving the content anywhere.

Testing finds what works for everyone; personalization applies what works for someone. Start by testing broadly to learn, personalize the winners to the segments they win for, then test again within segments. Uniform runs both on the same components, audiences, and insights, so the loop never breaks.

Uniform reports sessions, uplift, and significance per test in its built-in insights, so a test ends when the evidence supports a decision. Scout can monitor significance continuously and propose promoting winners or retiring losers, with your team approving the outcome.

Scout, Uniform's agent, proposes test hypotheses from your audience data, generates the variants, monitors significance, and recommends promotions and follow-ups, in autonomous or review mode with humans approving what ships. It removes the labor gap between owning a testing tool and running a testing program.
