How does ContentGrapher handle a technically mixed audience?

Describe the primary reader. If multiple audiences matter equally, separate Phase 2 runs give each audience its own guidance view.

Pick your primary reader

The survey has one audience slot. If your page serves multiple readers, describe the one you are most trying to reach with this specific URL. For a page where different audiences are genuinely equally important, separate Phase 2 analyses give each audience its own guidance view.

What happens when signals conflict

When the study tested contradictory signals, "beginner student" as the role combined with Expert as the level, the analysis produced statistically normal results with no errors. The pipeline leaned toward the Expert level signal when role and level diverged. Both the role and level inputs were processed; neither caused the analysis to fail.

This is observed behavior from the study, not a documented design specification. If your signals are in conflict, the analysis will produce a result. The level field carries more weight when signals diverge.

Running separate analyses for different audiences

Phase 2 can be re-run with a different audience input on the same Phase 1 output. Phase 1 does not need to re-run: the concept map and boundary classifications are reused. Each Phase 2 run uses one analysis credit.

Running separate Phase 2 analyses for different audiences gives you two independent writing briefs for the same page, one calibrated to each reader. This is useful when two audiences have substantially different needs from the same content and you want to understand the gap for each independently.
