## Deep-dive shortlist for next run (landing/funnel/packaging)

Priority for manual firecrawl_scrape deep analysis on these 5 (to be done in separate run, not here):
1. Level4.es — the Kit Consulting "Plan IA" lander
2. Axolot Agencia — "Tu asistente virtual pagado por Europa"
3. Creamos IA (Bilbao) — fresh agency framing
4. AI Consortivm / aikit.es — bundle play
5. Ringr.ai — voice-agent packaging as a service

**What to capture per site:**
hero one-liner · reason-why cluster · package structure · price anchors · lead-magnet (audit / calculator / ROI tool) · video/demo format · proof / cases / logos · CTA / pricing call · footer partnerships / kit-digital badges.

_To populate on the next run._
