Speed
Render-blocking requests
1.1 s2 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.1 s.
Mobile performance score: 69
69/100Your mobile performance score is 69. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Reduce unused JavaScript
750 ms · 114 KiBAbout 114 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 750 ms faster on a phone.
Improve image delivery
450 ms · 131 KiB5 images could be 131 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 450 ms faster on a phone.
cloudfront.net adds 56 ms
56 mscloudfront.net costs a phone 56 ms of main-thread work and 315 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.
4 third-party services on the page
4 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, cloudfront.net and Google Fonts and others), adding 521 KiB and 198 ms of main-thread time.
3 long tasks on the main thread
3 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 97 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Reduce unused CSS
43 KiBAbout 43 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.
Legacy JavaScript
12 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 12 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.
Chained critical requests
Critical files load one after another instead of in parallel (3 chains). Preconnecting to key origins and preloading the hero image shortens the chain.

Main-thread work: 0.4 s
A phone's processor spends 0.4 s on main-thread work while loading, 155 ms of it running JavaScript. That is comfortably low.
Server response: 2 ms
2 msYour server sent the HTML in 2 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
Core Web Vitals
Largest Contentful Paint: 4.6 s
4.6 sYour largest element takes 4.6 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “Screenshot”.
Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.27
0.27The layout shifts by 0.27 while loading, so content jumps under the reader's thumb. Good is under 0.1.
Time to Interactive: 4.6 s
4.6 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 4.6 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
14 images without width and height
14 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.
First Contentful Paint: 1.8 s
1.8 sThe first text or image appears after 1.8 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
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
Speed Index: 2.6 s
2.6 sVisually, the page fills in at 2.6 s (Speed Index), inside the 3.4 s “good” threshold.
Total Blocking Time: 72 ms
72 msScripts block the page for only 72 ms while loading. Good is under 200 ms.
Images and page weight
1 image far larger than shown
82 KiB1 image is downloaded at several times the size a phone draws it, for example launchr-demo.webp at 2,320 px wide, shown at 366 px. Resized copies would save about 82 KiB.
About 0.1 g of CO₂ per visit
0.15 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.15 g of CO₂e: 17.5 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
3 checks passed
Page weight: 527 KiB in 33 requests
527 KiBYour homepage downloads 527 KiB in 33 requests on a phone: scripts 231 KiB (2), images 199 KiB (22) and stylesheets 47 KiB (2). 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.
Accessibility
2 text elements with low contrast
2 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (31 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 31 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
No main landmark
The page has no <main> landmark, so screen-reader users cannot jump straight to the content.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 22 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
30 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 33 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 30 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
No structured data
No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.
No canonical URL
No canonical URL, so duplicate versions of the homepage (with or without www, with tracking parameters) can split ranking signals.
No social preview image
No Open Graph image (also missing: og:title, og:description), so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.
No robots.txt
There is no robots.txt at getlaunchr.com/robots.txt, the first file search crawlers ask for.
No favicon declared
No favicon is declared in the HTML, so browser tabs and Google's mobile results may show a generic icon.
No X (Twitter) card tag
No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is incomplete here.
5 internal links, 4 external
The homepage links to 5 pages on getlaunchr.com and 4 external pages.
4 checks passed
Meta description: 82 characters
Your meta description is 82 characters: “Launchr is a highly specialized Open Source SaaS starter template based on Django.”.
One H1 headline
Your main headline reads: “Build fast, launch quickly.”.
Title: 44 characters
Your title is a healthy 44 characters: “Launchr - Django based SaaS starter template”.
XML sitemap found
Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://getlaunchr.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.
No llms.txt
There is no /llms.txt, a short Markdown guide to your key pages for AI tools (llmstxt.org). It is optional and few AI tools read it yet, so treat it as a cheap extra.
2 checks passed
AI answer engines may read the site
There is no robots.txt, so nothing stops the crawlers behind ChatGPT search, Claude and Perplexity from reading the site and cite it in answers.
Text is in the HTML
Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (344 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
Other pages
1 page without a meta description
/legal has no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
1 page with very little text
/legal has under 150 words in the HTML. Thin pages rarely rank; if the text loads with JavaScript, crawlers that don't run it see even less.
2 internal pages checked
We fetched 2 pages linked from your homepage and read each the way a search engine does.

Content and conversion
No social proof
No testimonials, customer logos, ratings or customer counts on the homepage: nothing tells a new visitor that others already trust you.
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.
About 321 words of copy
The homepage carries about 321 words of visible text.
5 checks passed
Clear next step on the first screen

4 calls to action
The homepage has 4 calls to action, for example “Demo”, “Get Started” and “Buy Now”.
1 short form
A short form (2 fields at most) is right on the homepage, asking for an email.
Analytics in place
Analytics detected: Google Analytics.
Direct contact links
Visitors can reach you directly: 0 phone links and 2 email links.
Privacy and tracking
2 trackers load before any consent
2Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager (measured from a US location before any click). No consent tool was detected. Visitors from the EU, UK and several US states must be asked first.
2 cookies set on arrival
2Opening the homepage sets 2 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).
No consent tool detected
No known cookie consent tool loads with the page. Some sites build their own banner, and some only show one to visitors from the EU.
5 other companies contacted
Loading the homepage contacts 5 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
Security, domain, email and software versions
The security, domain and email checks, software and plugin versions, and any app with a known security problem are visible only to people at getlaunchr.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
