daml.com does not allow embedding, so this is Google's rendering of the page.
Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
1.1 s · 296 KiBAbout 296 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.1 s faster on a phone.
Mobile performance score: 73
73/100Your mobile performance score is 73. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
4 third-party services on the page
4 third-party services load with your homepage (Osano CMP, Google Tag Manager and mintcdn.com and others), adding 235 KiB and 152 ms of main-thread time.
2 long tasks on the main thread
2 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 123 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Improve image delivery
12 KiB2 images could be 12 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
Reduce unused CSS
11 KiBAbout 11 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.

Main-thread work: 1.1 s
A phone's processor spends 1.1 s on main-thread work while loading, 586 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.
Server response: 5 ms
5 msYour server sent the HTML in 5 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals
Largest Contentful Paint: 5.5 s
5.5 sYour largest element takes 5.5 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “DA%20Registry”.
Largest content (LCP) got 22% slower for real visitors
+22%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-11-07, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 1.3 s to 1.8 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).
Speed Index: 5.2 s
5.2 sVisually, the page fills in at 5.2 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
Time to Interactive: 5.6 s
5.6 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 5.6 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
First Contentful Paint: 2.3 s
2.3 sThe first text or image appears after 2.3 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
5 images without width and height
5 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.
Tap response (INP) held steady for real visitors
-8%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-11-07, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 92 ms to 81 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).
Not enough real-visitor data yet
Chrome's UX Report (opens in a new tab) has too little real-visitor traffic for this site, so the figures here are lab measurements from Google's test phone on a throttled 4G connection.
2 checks passed
Total Blocking Time: 100 ms
100 msScripts block the page for only 100 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.
Cumulative Layout Shift: 0
0The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).
Images and page weight
About 0.2 g of CO₂ per visit
0.23 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.23 g of CO₂e: 28.0 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
4 checks passed
Page weight: 844 KiB in 43 requests
844 KiBYour homepage downloads 844 KiB in 43 requests on a phone: scripts 708 KiB (24), stylesheets 48 KiB (2) and images 39 KiB (10). That is a lean page.
Images use modern formats
Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.
Images load when needed
Images below the first screen wait until the visitor scrolls to them.
Images are sized for phones
No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.
Accessibility
15 text elements with low contrast
15 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
Zoom is disabled
The viewport tag blocks pinch-zoom, which low-vision visitors rely on.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (1 element)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
1 form field without a label
1 form field has no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names.
Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names. (3 elements).
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 7 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
42 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 45 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 42 passed and 3 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
Title is short (17 characters)
Your title is only 17 characters: “DA Apps - DA Apps”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.
No structured data
No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.
37 internal links, 24 external
The homepage links to 37 pages on daml.com and 24 external pages.
6 checks passed
Meta description: 96 characters
Your meta description is 96 characters: “A portfolio of institutional-grade Apps & APIs brought to you by the creators of Canton Network.”.
One H1 headline
Your main headline reads: “DA Apps”.
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://docs.digitalasset.com/.
Open Graph tags complete
Open Graph tags are complete, so shared links show a title, description and image.
robots.txt in place
robots.txt is in place and points crawlers to your sitemap.
XML sitemap found
Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://docs.digitalasset.com/sitemap.xml.
AI search readiness
No Organization structured data
There is no Organization (or LocalBusiness) JSON-LD, so search engines and AI assistants have no machine-readable facts about who runs the site: its name, logo, profiles and contact details.
3 checks passed
AI answer engines may read the site
Your robots.txt lets the crawlers behind ChatGPT search, Claude and Perplexity read the site and cite it in answers.
Text is in the HTML
Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (248 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
llms.txt published
The site publishes /llms.txt (21 KiB, 113 links), a plain-text guide to the site for AI tools.
Other pages
5 pages without a meta description
/registry/apis/token-standard, /registry/guides/provider-configuration, /registry/guides/registrar-onboarding, /registry/guides/mint and /registry/guides/burn have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

2 checks passed
No console errors
No JavaScript errors were logged while the page loaded on a phone.
Mobile viewport set
The page declares a mobile viewport.
Security and trust
1 broken external link
1 link to other sites is dead, for example https://archived.docs.digitalasset.com/utilities/releases/index.html (404).
No X-Content-Type-Options
X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff is missing, so browsers may guess file types.
No Referrer-Policy
No Referrer-Policy header, so full URLs can leak to the sites you link to.
No Permissions-Policy
No Permissions-Policy header to switch off camera, microphone and location for embedded content.
No security.txt
There is no /.well-known/security.txt telling researchers how to report a security problem to you.
7 checks passed
Served over HTTPS
The homepage is served over HTTPS (docs.digitalasset.com).
Valid certificate (32 days left)
The certificate from Google Trust Services · WE1 verifies for daml.com and is valid for another 32 days.
Protected from clickjacking
X-Frame-Options or a frame-ancestors policy stops other sites framing yours.
Content-Security-Policy set
A Content-Security-Policy is set, the main browser-side defence against injected scripts.
HSTS enabled
Strict-Transport-Security is set, so browsers always use https.
http:// redirects to https
http://daml.com redirects to the secure version.
HTTP/2 and HTTP/3
The server speaks HTTP/2 and advertises HTTP/3, so browsers load many files over one connection.
Domain and trust
DNSSEC is off
digitalasset.com'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.
3 checks passed
Domain is 22 years old
22 yearsdigitalasset.com was registered in Sep 2004 through GoDaddy.com, LLC. An established domain carries more trust with email providers and search engines.
Certificate issuers are restricted
CAA records allow only amazonaws.com, amazontrust.com, awstrust.com and digicert.com to issue certificates for digitalasset.com, so a mis-issued certificate from anyone else is refused.
Registered until Sep 2027
digitalasset.com is registered until Sep 2027.
Content and conversion
No call to action on the first screen
On a phone, there is no call to action on the first screen: visitors have to scroll to find out what to do next.
Thin social proof
Social proof on the homepage: 1 testimonial or review block. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.
No direct contact details
No phone number or email link on the homepage, so ready-to-buy visitors have one fewer way to reach you.
Only about 173 words
The homepage has only about 173 words of visible text; thin pages give Google and first-time buyers little to go on.
No form on the homepage
There is no form on the homepage, so every lead has to click through to another page first.
No risk reducer
No guarantee or risk reducer (money-back, free trial, no credit card) is mentioned, which is often what tips a hesitant visitor.
2 checks passed
3 calls to action
The homepage has 3 calls to action, for example “Contact us” and “Contact & Support”.
Analytics in place
Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager.
Email authentication
SPF does not block other senders (no all)
Your SPF record doesn't end in -all or ~all, so it doesn't stop other servers sending as you: “v=spf1 redirect=93ye3v9p._spf._d.mim.ec”.
Email authentication score: 85/100
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.
2 checks passed
DMARC policy: reject
DMARC tells receivers to reject mail that fails authentication, and sends you reports.
DKIM signing found
A DKIM key is published (selector “google” and “hs1”), so receivers can verify mail really came from you.
Privacy and tracking
3 other companies contacted
Loading the homepage contacts 3 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
2 checks passed
Consent tool: Osano
A consent management tool (Osano) loads with the page.
No known trackers before consent
No known advertising or analytics trackers load before a visitor clicks anything (measured from a US location before any click).
