How this executive brief is measured

Concentration compares this view's share of source-linked deployments for a use-case type with that type's share across the full catalog. Momentum is a peer-relative 0-100 score based on recent deployment volume, acceleration, recent evidence share, and evidence depth. Quantified outcome medians appear only when at least 4 reported metrics support them; smaller supported samples are marked early evidence.

Relative leverage

Which use-case types show the strongest leverage?

2 of 7 scored types sit in the higher-leverage area — Personalized learning shows the strongest observed impact-for-effort balance; Student support assistant (2 cases) is the largest high-impact investment signal.

ⓘ How to read this chart

Each dot is one Education Marketing use-case type, sitting at the mean build effort and business impact of its scored cases, positioned relative to the other scored types shown. The dashed crosshair is the peer median, so the split compares leverage within this view.

The dashed indigo zone marks higher leverage: above-median impact for at-or-below-median effort. Dot size reflects scored cases; impact and effort figures in the list are the true 1–5 averages.
