Signups or leads divided by visits to the page.

What your AI does

Find the signup or waitlist form. Count required fields and check validation, autocomplete attributes, input types, and the submit-button label. Propose cutting to the fields actually used downstream (usually email only), adding autocomplete and correct input types, and a clear error message per field.

Done when

  1. The form asks only for fields that get used
  2. Inputs have the right type and autofill
  3. Each field shows a clear error

The prompt

Paste this into any AI coding tool, or run it in MightyMouse and your AI works on your own project.

Shorten the signup form (Landing page)

Find the signup or waitlist form. Count required fields and check validation, autocomplete attributes, input types, and the submit-button label. Propose cutting to the fields actually used downstream (usually email only), adding autocomplete and correct input types, and a clear error message per field.

Done when:
- The form asks only for fields that get used
- Inputs have the right type and autofill
- Each field shows a clear error

Read the code first. If it already does this well, change nothing and say so. Otherwise make the smallest change that makes every line above true.

Work with what this project already uses. Do not add a paid tool or service unless I ask for one.
