Why it works

The case study earns its Breakthrough tag by leading with a concrete upward number: mobile CTRs doubled. The competitive switch from Mixpanel and Redash is named explicitly, giving the before-state credibility. The efficiency gains, load time cut from 12 to 5 seconds and answers in 5 seconds instead of weeks, are strong but positioned as supporting evidence rather than the headline claim.

Steal this

The direct quote from the engineering manager contrasting 'come back in a week' with 'I can have that in five seconds' makes the speed gain visceral and memorable without requiring a formal metric.
