Key Findings: Cross-Industry A/B Tests

Across 141 cross-industry experiments, 2% resulted in a statistically significant win.

138 experiments were inconclusive, meaning the difference between control and variant was not statistically significant. Inconclusive results are still valuable — they tell you what doesn't move the needle, so you can focus testing effort elsewhere.

These results come from real A/B tests with sample sizes ranging from hundreds to millions of visitors. Use them to inform your own cross-industry testing strategy and avoid repeating experiments that have already been run.
