What is the Digit Drop Lab?
The Digit Drop Lab is a one-screen attention surface for PrismManifest — Insight ITS’s zero-trust tool-argument gate. Cold visitors from LinkedIn, X, or Show HN open this page to feel the loss in under ten seconds: a fixed Form 1040 shows Line 11 AGI $450,000.00; bad AI (or OCR) drops a zero and proposes $45,000; without a gate a deterministic tax calculator would still run correct math on the wrong input; with PrismManifest the engine is blocked before that wrong estimate runs.
Belief: A sure calculator + bad AI dollars = a sure wrong answer. This lab is tax-only on fixed fixtures. It does not replace the deeper interactive demo (prismmanifest-demo.html) which keeps tabs, custom dollar proposals, and how-to depth. Product story and install live on prismmanifest.html.
First-viewport proof
Document evidence: Form 1040 · tax year 2024 · Line 11 AGI $450,000.00.
Primary action: Drop a digit — AI proposes $45,000.
Secondary action: Correct extract — AI proposes $450,000.
On digit-drop the outcome badge is Blocked — engine does not run. Without a gate the engine would use $45,000 → estimate $6,750. With PrismManifest the document $450,000 is held and the wrong estimate never runs. Punch line: Wrong by $60,750 vs document math. Why (plain English): Document amount does not match AI proposal ($45,000 vs $450,000) — engine blocked.
On correct extract the badge is Allowed — engine may run, then the lab prompts you to try Drop a digit so the difference is obvious.
What this page deliberately omits
No underwriting, claims, or accounts-payable tabs on this attention surface. No custom dollar textbox (that lives on the full demo). No long how-to tutorial above the fold. No Calendly — soft CTA is email MANIFEST. Homepage Website Hub AI chat is untouched and unrelated. The live API is the same isolated demo route used by the full demo page — there is no second backend.
Honesty
Fixed sample pack · not your documents. Production claim needs your files through the same gate.

API (reuse)
Digit-drop: POST /api/agents/prismmanifest-demo/run with JSON { "use_case": "tax", "scenario": "digit_drop" }. Correct: { "use_case": "tax", "scenario": "correct" }. REJECT maps to Blocked — engine does not run; ACCEPT maps to Allowed — engine may run. Not the homepage /api/agents/website/chat assistant.

Frequently asked questions
What is the Digit Drop Lab?
A one-screen PrismManifest attention page: Form 1040 AGI $450,000 vs AI $45,000. One click shows Blocked — engine does not run and Wrong by $60,750 vs document math. Landing: https://www.insightits.com/products/digit-drop-lab.html
How is this different from the full PrismManifest demo?
The lab is the 10-second punch for cold clicks. The full demo at /products/prismmanifest-demo.html keeps tabs, custom dollar proposals, needs-human, and how-to depth.
Is this my real tax data?
No. Fixed sample pack only — not your documents. Production claim needs your files through the same gate.
What API does the lab use?
POST /api/agents/prismmanifest-demo/run with { "use_case": "tax", "scenario": "digit_drop" | "correct" }. Same isolated demo API as the full demo — not the homepage Website Hub chat.
How do I follow up?
Soft CTA: email info@insightits.com with subject MANIFEST. Install: pip install "prismmanifest==0.3.4". No Calendly.
