Y1PX Intelligence Hub

Methodology

The PX Intelligence Index evaluates European B2C brands based on their customer-facing digital product experience — exclusively through publicly visible touchpoints.

Three Core Principles

Outside-in Assessment

Only publicly visible digital touchpoints are evaluated — owned channels, retail partners and after-sales. No assumptions about internal processes.

Deterministic Scoring

Each indicator receives an objective rating based on clearly defined criteria. No room for interpretation, maximum consistency.

Reproducibility

Identical scans yield comparable results, enabling reliable competitive benchmarking and trend analysis over time.

Maturity Scale

Benchmark
4.5 – 5.0

Best-in-class product experience — market reference point

Leader
4.0 – 4.5

Above-average product experience with clear differentiation

Advanced
3.5 – 4.0

Consciously managed product experience with consistent execution

Developing
3.0 – 3.5

Defined base logic exists but not yet consistently implemented

Basic
2.5 – 3.0

Individual approaches visible, no systematic control

Nascent
< 2.5

No recognizable product experience strategy

Six Dimensions

The framework assesses the product experience across six dimensions — from strategic alignment to technical maturity.

D1

Strategy & Governance

Product strategy visibility: category logic, terminology consistency, product systematics and cross-touchpoint governance.

D2

Customer Value & GTM

How clearly does the brand communicate customer value? Feature-to-benefit translation, value logic consistency and audience differentiation.

D3

Channel & Retail

Product presentation at retail partners: content completeness, minimum standard compliance, channel adaptation and content variance.

D4

Product Data

Structured data quality: attribute sets, product comparability, owned→retail consistency and data completeness.

D5

Content & Assets

Systematic content deployment: modules on owned, channel adaptation, visual & claim consistency and content quality.

D6

Digital Maturity

Technical maturity: structured data (Schema.org), page performance, content freshness, A/B testing and tech stack signals.

How Is It Measured?

Evidence Indicators (EIs)

Each dimension contains 4–6 Evidence Indicators rated on a 0–3 scale.

3
AdvancedFully implemented and consistent across channels
2
IntermediateImplemented on owned channels, partially on retail
1
BasicApproaches visible but inconsistent
0

Evidence Sources

Assessment is based on analysis of the following publicly accessible sources:

Owned Channels (Website, Shop, App)
Min. 3 retail partners per brand
After-sales touchpoints
At least 3 products per brand
