Why it works

The 'zero queries' detail is unusually concrete and damning as a before-state, making the scale of the turnaround legible without any editorializing. The story leads with a growth number going up (queries, users), which makes Breakthrough the right primary tag, but the reversal from a broken system is strong enough to flag as a secondary Turnaround. The two-semi-dedicated-team-members efficiency point lands as a sharp supporting proof point rather than the headline claim.

Steal this

Use a literal zero as the before-state metric. 'Zero queries on some days for six months' is more arresting than any qualitative description of poor adoption and sets up the growth arc with no additional context needed.
