Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab): real Chrome visitors over rolling 28-day periods.
One score from every part of this review. How it works
Speed
Render-blocking requests
1.3 s14 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.3 s.
Main-thread work: 6.2 s
A phone's processor spends 6.2 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.3 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
800 ms · 378 KiB11 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (378 KiB).
Reduce unused JavaScript
750 ms · 330 KiBAbout 330 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.
Mobile performance score: 62
62/100Your mobile performance score is 62. Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.
Improve image delivery
888 KiB9 images could be 888 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
6 third-party services on the page
6 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, secureprivacy.ai and Cloudflare CDN and others), adding 1.1 MB and 584 ms of main-thread time.
Google Tag Manager adds 397 ms
397 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 397 ms of main-thread work and 543 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.
Reduce unused CSS
300 ms · 28 KiBAbout 28 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 300 ms faster on a phone.
secureprivacy.ai adds 145 ms
145 mssecureprivacy.ai costs a phone 145 ms of main-thread work and 480 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.
Legacy JavaScript
150 ms · 19 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 19 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
6 long tasks on the main thread
6 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 155 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Font display
50 msWeb fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).
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.
Forced reflow
Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.
Minify JavaScript
4 KiB4 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

Core Web Vitals
Fails Core Web Vitals for real visitors
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.
Real-user LCP: 4.5 s
4.5 sReal visitors wait 4.5 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.
Largest Contentful Paint: 11.6 s
11.6 sYour largest element takes 11.6 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s.
Time to Interactive: 12.2 s
12.2 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 12.2 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
Real-user FCP: 2.6 s
2.6 sReal visitors see the first content after 2.6 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.
Real-user TTFB: 1.5 s
1.5 sReal visitors wait 1.5 s for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.
Speed Index: 5.3 s
5.3 sVisually, the page fills in at 5.3 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
38 images without width and height
38 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.
Total Blocking Time: 293 ms
293 msScripts block taps and scrolling for 293 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.
First Contentful Paint: 2.1 s
2.1 sThe first text or image appears after 2.1 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
Tap response (INP) held steady for real visitors
+9%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-31, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 129 ms to 149 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Images and page weight
Page weight: 4.3 MB in 120 requests
4.3 MBYour homepage downloads 4.3 MB in 120 requests on a phone: images 2.3 MB (62), fonts 1.0 MB (9) and scripts 888 KiB (23). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
1 image over 500 KB
new-circle-scaled.png weighs 830 KiB. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.
1 image far larger than shown
689 KiB1 image is downloaded at several times the size a phone draws it, for example new-circle-scaled.png at 2,560 px wide, shown at 351 px. Resized copies would save about 689 KiB.
8 images in older formats
8 images (1.6 MB) 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.
8 images below the first screen load straight away
8 images further down the page (1.2 MB) download before anyone scrolls to them. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
About 1.2 g of CO₂ per visit
1.23 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.23 g of CO₂e: 147.7 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
Accessibility
Orphan list items
Some list items are not inside a list.
3 text elements with low contrast
3 text elements don't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
Malformed lists
Some lists contain elements other than list items, which screen readers announce wrongly.
Elements must only use permitted ARIA attributes (1 element)
Elements must only use permitted ARIA attributes: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.
Inline text spacing must be adjustable with custom stylesheets (1 element)
Inline text spacing must be adjustable with custom stylesheets: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated serious by axe-core.
1 tap target too small
1 tap target is too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.
16 images without alt text
16 images have no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (7 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 7 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
23 links without text
23 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
1 form field without a label
1 form field has no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
Headings should not be empty (1 element)
Headings should not be empty: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated minor by axe-core.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h1 → h3 and h2 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
1 checks passed
45 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 56 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 45 passed and 11 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
2 H1 headlines
There are 2 <h1> headlines (“NetSPI & Synack Are Now One” and “Why NetSPI?”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.
2 links with vague text
2 links use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind them.
202 internal links, 9 external
The homepage links to 202 pages on netspi.com and 9 external pages.
7 checks passed

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

7 cookies set on arrival
7Opening the homepage sets 7 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).

Security, domain, email and software versions
