Site Canvas Path

Field note · Kuching

Tuesday sitting: the room went quiet after the 9 p.m. ping

A food-group host in Kuching kept a paper tally of muted alerts for three evenings. By Thursday the 9 p.m. ping had emptied the evening thread, while the lunchtime photo still drew replies from the same twelve people.

Site Canvas Path is a small social app analytics practice. We sit with hosts, product caretakers, and community leads, then write a readout they can take back to the room — not a wall of charts for a board pack.

What we sit with

Site Canvas Path reads social apps the way a careful neighbour reads a group chat: who stays after the welcome screen, which alerts get muted before breakfast, and where a comment room turns brittle.

The flagship work is a written social app audit. Supporting sittings cover a campaign week, a standing monthly review, or a side-by-side look at two rooms inside the same product family.

Audits you can request

Social app audit

A two-week written audit of one social app: first-week silence, muted alerts, comment climate, and the paths people actually take after install.

Standing monthly review

A recurring ninety-minute sitting to read the last month of returns, mutes, and comment weather with the same hosts.

Campaign week readout

A five-day reading of one campaign inside a social app: invites, reply bursts, and the hangover the morning after.

All sittings and audits

They asked our hosts to keep a paper log of muted alerts for three evenings. The readout named the 9:40 p.m. blast that emptied the room, which our own weekly summary had buried under a single “engagement” line.
