I do not have logos yet. What should the proof be?
Quoting myself feels worse than an empty page. I have three kind emails and no permission to name the companies. The page currently has no proof at all.

I have been adjacent to this. The sentence I would not skip is "Quoting myself feels worse than an empty page". Finding who it is for mattered more than adding another feature.
If you measured "The page currently has no proof at all", would the unit be a person, a session, or a reply?
I am not convinced "I have three kind emails and no permission to name the companies" is the constraint yet. The people who saw it may have been the wrong room.
I would stay with "Quoting myself feels worse than an empty page" for the week already named. A quieter result is still a result.
I used 'used by teams at' only after I had permission. Before that I described the job, not the crowd. Empty was better than implied logos.
A specific before-and-after, with the number and without the logo, read as more honest than a gray logo row. Ask the email authors if you can quote the sentence.

Nobody praised it. Two people repeated it back correctly. That is the test I said I would use, so I am using it, even though the sharper line is still in a draft.

- Looking for feedback on my landing page before launch
I have been working on a small analytics tool for about four months. The landing page is finally up, but I keep explaining the product the way I would explain it to another founder. If you have five minutes, I would like to know where the value gets fuzzy.

- I added a short 'this is not' section
It lists two products people confuse us with. A tester said it was the first moment they understood us. I was afraid it would sound defensive. It sounded like a boundary.

- I changed the headline and lost the only clear sentence
The old headline was plain and a little dull. The new one sounds sharper and two people asked what the product actually does. I think I optimized for taste.
