An AI sales tool can attract free registrations and still produce no paid customers. That outcome is visible in the story; the signup count alone does not explain it.
An earlier version of this article presented a 220-person example and a 5% conversion comparison without a source for either number. It also treated free registration as a curiosity signal and supplied a test that mapped one answer to several business moves. Those details made the account sound more measured than the available material allowed, so they have been removed.
A free registration can mean that a promise was interesting enough to try. It can also come from someone who never returns, never changes a workflow, or never reaches the point where the free version is insufficient. None of those paths is visible in the total number of signups.
The old article then connected a missing paid moment to repositioning, narrowing, or stopping, and grouped several unrelated public examples under the same conclusion. That was a complete decision path built from thin public evidence. It has been removed.
What remains unknown is what happened after registration: whether anyone used the product repeatedly, changed a workflow, involved a teammate, or encountered a reason to pay. Without that sequence, free signups are an observation about initial interest, not a verdict on the offer or its conversion path.
