Intra-page (< 100 ms)

Decisioning happens entirely inside the browser/app context with no network round-trip; data is already local (IndexedDB, OPFS, WASM, in-memory).

Intra-page (< 100 ms)

Example. A user clicks a Banner asking for a Mortgage within the site, and page elements immediately re-render based on this expressed intent.

Technical approach. No internet interaction — the data used is already present in the browser context (IndexedDB, OPFS, Dexie JS, IDB, WASM).

Implications.

Cost relative to next tier up. Moving an Intra-page experience to the Inter-page tier typically incurs an order-of-magnitude increase in delivery cost; conversely, pulling an Inter-page experience down into Intra-page also imposes a similar order-of-magnitude jump in client complexity (source.real-time-clarity-md).
