# Series are invisible

Open · medium severity · gap · newsroom.sgit.ai

## What we saw

The reading meter in five pieces, the homepage diagnosis and its rebuild, the agent team in three depths: nothing says "part 2 of 5" or offers the next part. The lab found eleven series.

## Why it matters

Readers land in the middle of a story without knowing there is a beginning.

## The fix

Series pages with part numbers, previous / next on each part, and the reader's progress.

## The record
