adaptive.build website review

Your mobile performance score is 83. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Facebook and reddit and others), adding 1.1 MB and 741 ms of main-thread time.

17 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (481 KiB).

About 349 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.

Google Tag Manager costs a phone 295 ms of main-thread work and 366 KiB of downloads while your page loads. Loading it after the page is usable, or only on the pages that need it, takes that off the critical path.

7 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 204 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

9 images could be 192 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

Polyfills for old browsers add 37 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.

Critical files load one after another instead of in parallel (3 chains). Preconnecting to key origins and preloading the hero image shortens the chain.

Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.

Real Chrome users on phones do not pass Google's Core Web Vitals on this page (28-day field data from the Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab)). Google uses this in ranking.

The page becomes fully interactive after 11.9 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

Visually, the page fills in at 6.2 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 104 ms to 131 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Real visitors wait 861 ms for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

The first text or image appears after 2.6 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

Scripts block taps and scrolling for 237 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

Your largest element takes 2.6 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “Adaptive’s AI agents keep job costing, AP, billing, WIP, an…”. Most of its time is element render delay (2.4 s).

Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 1.3 s to 1.4 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

1 image is downloaded at several times the size a phone draws it, for example 9fbea278-slurp-soc2-badge.d7qmgp8l.png at 471 px wide, shown at 58 px. Resized copies would save about 50 KiB.

2 images (98 KiB) are JPEG, PNG or GIF. The same pictures as WebP or AVIF are usually much smaller at the same quality, and every current browser shows them.

2 images further down the page (98 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.

By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.45 g of CO₂e: 53.6 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

The homepage links to 41 pages on adaptive.build and 11 external pages.

robots.txt blocks GPTBot, ClaudeBot, Google-Extended, Applebot-Extended and CCBot, which collect pages to train models. That's a legitimate choice and doesn't by itself stop the site appearing in AI answers, which the crawlers above handle.

/accounting-partner-directory and /success-stories use the same meta description. A description written for each page earns more clicks.

We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 25 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

1 image failed to load on a phone, for example https://bat.bing.com/action/0?ti=97275830&Ver=2&mid=b362a1fc-79fa-4260-b987-39df02ecef8e&bo=1&sid=ddd81a20d6e011f18d956551ae46e240&vid=ddd84b00d6e011f187b8bde04faf726b&vids=1&msclkid=N&pi=918639831&lg.

No Strict-Transport-Security header, so browsers may still try plain http first on a return visit.

No Content-Security-Policy header, the main browser-side defence against injected scripts.

No Permissions-Policy header to switch off camera, microphone and location for embedded content.

X-XSS-Protection is set to “1; mode=block”; the header is deprecated and can introduce bugs. Use 0 or remove it.

There is no /.well-known/security.txt telling researchers how to report a security problem to you.

adaptive.build has no CAA record, so any certificate authority may issue a certificate for it. A CAA record naming your provider (for example letsencrypt.org) closes that door.

adaptive.build's DNS answers are not signed. DNSSEC stops attackers forging them to send visitors or email elsewhere; most registrars switch it on in a click, though most sites still run without it.

There is no form on the homepage, so every lead has to click through to another page first.

No guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card) is mentioned, which is often what tips a hesitant visitor.

The homepage carries about 1,068 words of visible text.

DMARC is set to p=none, so mail pretending to be adaptive.build is still delivered. Add a report address, check the reports, then move to quarantine.

Email authentication: SPF record 25 points, plus 15 when it ends in -all (10 for ~all); DMARC record 25, plus 25 for a reject policy (15 for quarantine); a DKIM key on a common selector 10.

Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Hotjar and HubSpot and 4 mores (measured from a US location before any click). A consent tool (HubSpot cookie banner) is installed; check it blocks these until visitors agree where the law requires it.

Opening the homepage sets 19 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).

Loading the homepage contacts 35 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
