17 Marks in this vertical
Every Mark a string player touches directly. Teacher, Judge, Oracle, Compass, Utilities, Spell, and the rest of the kingdom you actually use.
The Anvil
First Judge audition: upload a take, get a score. The product hypothesis.
The Throne
/dashboard with practice streak, recent takes, plan summary.
The Forge
Practice Forge — guided log + reflection prompts. The retention hook.
The Arena
Audition Simulator with timed takes + judge panel persona.
The Welcome
Onboarding wizard: instrument + level + DOB.
The Library
Repertoire library — search + per-piece audition prep pages.
The Prism
Per-take dimension breakdown: tempo / intonation / rhythm / tone / musicality.
The Compass
Dashboard Oracle widget with day-completion checkboxes + plan archive.
The Teacher
Conversational AI music teacher. Voice + camera + sheet music.
The Tuning
Adaptive level awareness. Teacher tailors language to middle-school vs college.
The Ear
Client-side spectral analysis. Real tone + dynamics measurement, not proxies.
The Utilities
In-app tuner + metronome + drone + pitch meter. Studio in the browser.
The Welcome
Post-onboarding first-action picker. Closes the empty-dashboard problem.
The Spell
Cmd+K command palette. Fuzzy-search every page and quick action from anywhere in the kingdom.
The Magisterium
Tier 2B research upgrade — 7 dialog patterns in Teacher prompt (diagnostic listening, constraint redirection, proprioceptive bridging, response tags) + 6 pedagogy patterns in Oracle (Galamian three-phase, interleaving, sleep-spacing, slow practice, audition prep mode, error isolation).
The Salute
Milestone Badges. Lazy-computed first-cross trophies derived from existing judge_reports — intonation clean, rhythm locked, tempo stable, tone centered, musical phrasing, advance verdict, 10/50/100 takes, first week complete. Dashboard trophy shelf with pulse-gold ring on <24h-old badges. BJ Fogg celebration psychology, zero migration.
The Roadmap
Audition Roadmap. Six-stage journey (welcomed → first take → foundation → rising → polish → audition ready) keyed off existing judge_reports + user_settings.audition_date. Dashboard chord with cleared/current/locked nodes. Pairs with Mark LXXVIII to deliver the Duolingo path-and-trophy retention combo (4.2x D14 vs streak-only per research).
