grover.com website review

64 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (1.1 MB).

About 360 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.2 s faster on a phone.

Your mobile performance score is 59. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

A phone's processor spends 3.6 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.9 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

5 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 300 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

ctfassets.net costs a phone 0 ms of main-thread work and 628 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.

Polyfills for old browsers add 54 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.

8 third-party services load with your homepage (Segment, Braze and Cloudflare and others), adding 953 KiB and 88 ms of main-thread time.

1 file blocks the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining it could save about 150 ms.

41 KiB JavaScript is shipped twice across bundles.

2 images could be 32 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

About 11 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.

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

Your largest element takes 10.5 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the text “Wir verwenden Cookies und ähnliche Technologien, um unsere …”.

The page becomes fully interactive after 10.5 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

Visually, the page fills in at 5.8 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

Scripts block taps and scrolling for 428 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

5 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.

Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 225 ms to 265 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Your homepage downloads 2.9 MB in 130 requests on a phone: scripts 1.3 MB (64), other files 634 KiB (31) and media 628 KiB (1). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

1 image (35 KiB) is 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.

By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.82 g of CO₂e: 98.6 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

15 tap targets are too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.

11 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.

Elements with role="dialog" or role="alertdialog" do not have accessible names. (1 element).

Headings skip levels (h1 → h3), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

SVG elements with an img role do not have an accessible text alternative (2 elements).

Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names. (1 element).

<td> elements in a large <table> do not have table headers. (1 element).

No structured data (JSON-LD), so Google can't show rich results such as your logo, ratings or FAQs.

Your meta description is 164 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.

No Open Graph image (also missing: og:title, og:description), so links shared on LinkedIn, Slack or Facebook show no preview picture.

No favicon is declared in the HTML, so browser tabs and Google's mobile results may show a generic icon.

No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is incomplete here.

The homepage links to 208 pages on grover.com and 13 external pages.

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.

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.

/business-de/for-business is marked noindex but linked from your homepage. If it is meant to be found, remove the noindex.

/de-de/review has no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

/business-de/for-business has no <h1> headline, so visitors and search engines get no clear main topic.

We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 100 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

1 error was logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “Failed to load resource: net::ERR_FAILED”.

Large scripts ship without source maps.

Opening https://grover.com goes through 3 redirects before the homepage loads.

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.

grover.com 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.

grover.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.

On a phone, there is no call to action on the first screen: visitors have to scroll to find out what to do next.

We found no call-to-action buttons or links (such as “Book a demo” or “Get a quote”) anywhere on the homepage.

No testimonials, customer logos, ratings or customer counts on the homepage: nothing tells a new visitor that others already trust you.

No phone number or email link on the homepage, so ready-to-buy visitors have one fewer way to reach you.

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 732 words of visible text.

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 Tag Manager and Segment (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.

Opening the homepage sets 9 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).

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.

Loading the homepage contacts 10 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
