# Read a scan

> The Signals idea board. Ideas ranked by a PXL score, grouped into campaigns, badged Test ready or Validation required, and triaged New, Approve, or Dismiss. Add your own ideas and search the board.

<Note>
  **Beta.** The idea board is part of the Signals Beta. See the [Signals
  overview](/signals/overview).
</Note>

A scan lands on the **idea board**: a ranked list of hypotheses, each
one a proposed test with the reasoning behind it. The board is where
you decide what is worth running.

## Ranked by a PXL score

Each idea carries a **PXL score**, a prioritization score that weighs
the potential impact of a change against how easy it is to build.
Higher scores rise to the top, so the ideas with the most leverage for
the least effort are the ones you see first. You do not have to read
the whole list to find the good ones. Start at the top.

## Test ready or Validation required

Every idea wears one of two badges. This is the honesty framing from
the [overview](/signals/overview), shown per idea:

| Badge                   | What it means                                                                                                                                                                                   |
| ----------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Test ready**          | A second independent signal confirms what the structure suggests. A strong candidate to run. Still not a guaranteed winner, only the experiment settles that.                                   |
| **Validation required** | An honest finding from the structure that no second signal has confirmed yet. Worth checking. [Connect GA4](/signals/connect-google-analytics) to give more ideas a chance to reach Test ready. |

A Test ready badge is a reason to build the test, not a claim that it
wins. When the data to back an idea is not there, the idea says so
rather than inventing a number.

## Grouped into campaigns

Related ideas are grouped into **campaigns**, so a set of changes aimed
at the same page or the same goal reads as one theme rather than a flat
list. A campaign is a useful unit to plan around: approve the ones you
believe in, dismiss the rest, and you have a quarter of testing roughed
out in a few minutes.

## Triage: New, Approve, Dismiss

Every idea sits in one of three states. Triage is how you turn a raw
scan into a plan.

<Steps>
  <Step title="New">
    Fresh from the scan and not yet triaged. Your inbox of ideas to
    look at.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Approve">
    You want to run this. Approving marks it as a keeper and sets it up
    for [Build this](/signals/build-a-test).
  </Step>

  <Step title="Dismiss">
    Not for you right now. Dismissing clears it off your active board
    so the list stays focused on what you intend to run.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Add your own ideas

You are not limited to what the scan found. **Add your own idea by
hand**, with your own hypothesis, and it lives on the same board,
carries the same badges and states, and flows through the same [Build
this](/signals/build-a-test) button. The AI does not have a monopoly on
good tests, and your own knowledge of the site belongs on the board
next to the machine's.

## Search the board

When a board gets long, especially after several scans and a few funnel
walks, **search** filters it by keyword so you can find the idea about
the checkout button, or every idea mentioning the pricing page,
without scrolling.
