| STANDARD vs NEWHORYZON |
Standard Dashboard | NEWHORYZON's Decision-Ready Dashboard |
| Structure | Lacks a logical flow, forcing to hunt for information. This increases cognitive load, making it difficult to form an accurate awareness of the situation. | Uses a clear visual hierarchy. The structure follows natural reading patterns and reduces the mental effort needed to find what's important. |
| Readability | Dense and displays confusing "chart junk". This creates visual noise that makes it harder to process information and taxes working memory. | Employs high contrast, clean fonts, and significant white space. This high signal-to-noise ratio makes information easy to process quickly and accurately. |
| Elements | Displays isolated numbers without context. This can trigger the "what you see is all there is" bias, leading to overconfidence based on incomplete information. | Presents data with context, such as trends over time or comparisons to a benchmark. This helps prevent misinterpretation and counteracts biases like the narrative fallacy by showing the bigger picture. |
| Bias | Bias Amplification: Often includes design choices that prey on cognitive biases, such as using a decoy option to make another option look better or using a large, irrelevant number as an anchor. | Bias Mitigation: Intentionally designed to prevent cognitive biases. For example, it avoids default options that could act as anchors and presents data neutrally to avoid framing effects. |
| Information vs Action Focus |
Is filled with any and all available data, regardless of its usefulness. This can lead to analysis paralysis and makes it difficult to focus on what truly matters for making a decision. | Curates decision-critical information with precision filtering. Focuses on actionable insights rather than data overload, enabling faster and more confident decision-making in time-sensitive scenarios. |
