Conversion fix for the checkout drop-off (54 sessions reached an /order/ page
over 3 days, 0 advanced to payment). Root cause was friction, not a bug: every
order page dropped a cold email-click straight into a 28-field intake Wizard
before showing any payment option.
- New ExpressCheckout.astro: payment-first entry. Shows price + the minimal
fields the API needs (prefilled from public records: ?dot= FMCSA census for
trucking, ?npi= NPPES lookup for healthcare) + Continue to payment. Creates a
single-service batch-of-one (POST /compliance-orders/batch, which does NOT
gate Stripe on intake_data_validated) then create-session -> Stripe. Full
intake is collected AFTER payment via the per-service 'Complete Your Intake
Form' email the webhook already sends (links to /order/<slug>?order=CO-xxx,
which re-enters the Wizard in paid-intake mode).
- New OrderFlow.astro: single source of truth replacing ~50 near-identical thin
Wizard wrappers. Trucking + healthcare default to payment-first (express on
top, marketing hero moved BELOW the CTA). Telecom + corporate keep Wizard-first
(rich pre-payment FCC/499 intake, no public-records prefill). Paid-intake
re-entry (?order=/?token=) always renders the full Wizard.
- Rewrote all 50 /order/*.astro pages to use OrderFlow (foreign-qualification
keeps its multi-state toggle via slotted content).
- Fixed the dead Tawk.to live-chat widget site-wide: the snippet set an invalid
crossorigin='*' attribute, forcing the browser into anonymous CORS mode and
blocking the script (0 chat requests fired anywhere). Removed it to match
Tawk's official snippet (footer partial + 73 static public/*.html files).
Verified: build clean; express on top with hero below; ?dot=/?npi= prefill;
paid-intake re-entry swaps to Wizard; telecom stays wizard-first; batch-of-one
-> live Stripe URL; both POST endpoints allow the prod origin via CORS.
