Thanks for the feedback. My initial target is small/medium web app developers and not so much the big guys (yet). At this stage, some A/B & design saavy is required and not fully eliminated. There's a lot of demo possibilities (one that comes up very often - eat your own dogfood much?) which I think will improve conversions.
since I'm assuming they're eating their own dogfood isn't it just a matter of time before the page morphs into a version that addresses all your points? The big call-to-action that goes nowhere will be tested out... maybe the pricing page you get that doesn't fit on one screen is just one version that will get phased out :)
Maybe I'll check back in a few weeks, and if the site has morphed into the best sales page ever then it means the tech works

This is a perfect example of building a technology, not a product. This is Optimizely without the amazing user interface that allows marketers to do this work.
is that good or bad?
I don't get your site. There's a BIG green button at the top and when I click it nothing happens.. Then there's an empty crystal ball and below that two other buttons that actually do something.. I have to click again to at least get a very basic idea on what you do.
Besides that the project actually sounds quite interesting!

I really should make that link go to a page that says "See what I mean?"
With this multivariate testing, how many visits does it take to get statistically significant data?
Calculating the number of tests needed to reach statistical certainty is not straightforward at all. The equation for simple A/B tests relies on the change of conversion rate from a control. More info here: https://developer.amazon.com/sdk/ab-testing/reference/ab-mat...
That's for simple A/B tests - this is not simple A/B tests, instead it is setting up a search space of possible variations of a page and comparing many to many to find which is best.
Splitting the data based on visitor referral, country, and more make the sample size needed even larger.
TLDR: This solution needs a decent amount of traffic to have reasonable results. The exact numbers are not definite.

that does look interesting.
are you using this to optimize your own site? if yes, do an open case study to show its power
if not, why not?

Came here to ask this. Your call to actions, etc are kind of lack-luster (although I have been waiting for a product like this for quite some time).
Are you optimizing your own funnel(s) with this? Please tell!

down :(
I think business intelligence should be part of any company's core competences, but there is a market for this kind of automation too.
Some more general feedback:
On a separate note, I think the notion of an "interactive" sales pitch that is custom generated for the user is interesting in its own right. Check out the link to my book on my hn profile page --- I have little conversation-like bubbles which add a bit of interactivity. This concept could go so much further though... Think "webpage as a conversation."
Good job on the coding. Now go open the right .css file and make your site look pretty ;)
