See your site next to your competitors’.
Put in your website and up to four others — the ones you keep losing work to, or the ones you wish yours looked like. Each one gets a real audit and a score out of 100, and you see the findings that stand out on every one of them.
A score on its own is a number. A score next to three competitors is a decision.

An illustration of the layout, not anybody’s real numbers. What comes back will be your sites and their own scores.
What the score is made of
Fifteen categories, weighted — speed, search and security count for more than code style, because that is roughly the order in which they cost you work. Every finding is tied to the page it was found on.

- Security
- Accessibility
- Functional
- Responsive
- Content
- UX

What you get, and what you do not
Now, free
Each site’s score out of 100 and the findings that stand out, on a page you can keep and send to whoever needs to see it. A real audit result, not a teaser assembled from your homepage.
The full report
Every finding, what each one is costing you, and the fix — plus a person reading it before you do. That is what we charge for, and it is the part a scanner cannot do.
One page each, not the whole site. We fetch and render the address you give us the way a visitor’s browser would. Crawling every page is a bigger job and a separate one — ask and we will do that instead.
We knock politely. Each site is fetched once, and requests are spaced rather than fired at somebody’s server all at once. A site already checked in the last few hours returns that result instead of being fetched again.
Only what a visitor can see. This looks at what any browser loading the page would get. There is nothing here you could not have found yourself given enough time, which is also why it is fair to run it on a competitor.
Your email. Attached to these results so they can be found again. Not sold, not subscribed to anything, and deleted on request.
