Speed

10 to fix35
  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    2.1 s · 7.2 MB

    24 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (7.2 MB).

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    2.9 s · 586 KiB

    About 586 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 2.9 s faster on a phone.

  • Render-blocking requests

    3.3 s

    11 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 3.3 s.

  • Mobile performance score: 35

    35/100

    Your mobile performance score is 35 (desktop: 91). Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.

  • Main-thread work: 5.4 s

    A phone's processor spends 5.4 s on main-thread work while loading, 2.9 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • 8 third-party services on the page

    8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, website-files.com and Cookiebot and others), adding 2.3 MB and 1.4 s of main-thread time.

  • Google Tag Manager adds 452 ms

    452 ms

    Google Tag Manager costs a phone 452 ms of main-thread work and 511 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.

  • 20 long tasks on the main thread

    20 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 393 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • website-files.com adds 253 ms

    253 ms

    website-files.com costs a phone 253 ms of main-thread work and 1.3 MB 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.

  • 2,012 HTML elements

    The page has 2,012 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.

  • Reduce unused CSS

    150 ms · 41 KiB

    About 41 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.

  • Improve image delivery

    37 KiB

    1 image could be 37 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    31 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 31 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.

  • Phones get a much slower page than desktops

    Desktop scores 91 but mobile only 35. A gap that wide usually means heavy scripts and images that hit phones hardest.

  • 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.

1 checks passed
  • Server response: 3 ms

    3 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 3 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

8 to fix100
  • 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.

  • Largest Contentful Paint: 13.3 s

    13.3 s

    Your largest element takes 13.3 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the element shown below.

  • First Contentful Paint: 6.1 s

    6.1 s

    The first text or image appears after 6.1 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Time to Interactive: 15.9 s

    15.9 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 15.9 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Total Blocking Time: 1.1 s

    1.1 s

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 1.1 s in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • Speed Index: 7.4 s

    7.4 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 7.4 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • Largest content (LCP) got 29% slower for real visitors

    +29%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-10, real Chrome visitors' largest content (lcp) went from 1.8 s to 2.1 s at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Real-user FCP: 2.2 s

    2.2 s

    Real visitors see the first content after 2.2 s (75th percentile). Good is under 1.8 s.

6 checks passed
  • Real-user LCP: 2.4 s

    2.4 s

    Real visitors wait 2.4 s for the largest content to appear (75th percentile). Good is under 2.5 s.

  • Real-user INP: 107 ms

    107 ms

    Real visitors wait 107 ms for the page to respond to a tap (75th percentile). Good is under 200 ms.

  • Real-user CLS: 0.04

    0.04

    For real visitors the layout shifts by 0.04 (75th percentile). Good is under 0.1.

  • Real-user TTFB: 664 ms

    664 ms

    Real visitors wait 664 ms for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.

  • Tap response (INP) got 25% faster for real visitors

    -25%

    Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-10, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 134 ms to 106 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0

    0

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0, good is under 0.1).

Images and page weight

1 to fix70
  • Page weight: 9.4 MB in 129 requests

    9.4 MB

    Your homepage downloads 9.4 MB in 129 requests on a phone: media 6.7 MB (1), scripts 1.5 MB (39) and images 961 KiB (51). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • About 2.7 g of CO₂ per visit

    2.67 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 2.67 g of CO₂e: 320.6 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

3 checks passed
  • 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

4 to fixGoogle 8794
  • Certain ARIA roles must contain particular children (2 elements)

    Certain ARIA roles must contain particular children: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated critical by axe-core.

  • 8 text elements with low contrast

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

  • 18 links without text

    18 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.

  • 6 form fields without a label

    6 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.

  • Headings skip levels

    Headings skip levels (h2 → h6, h3 → h5 and h3 → h5), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 91 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 46 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 50 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 46 passed and 4 failed. 3 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

1 to fixGoogle 10096
  • No canonical URL

    No canonical URL, so duplicate versions of the homepage (with or without www, with tracking parameters) can split ranking signals.

  • 51 internal links, 7 external

    The homepage links to 51 pages on oakslab.com and 7 external pages.

7 checks passed
  • Meta description: 147 characters

    Your meta description is 147 characters: “Product, engineering and AI partner for high-growth companies. 65+ products built, top 0.3% talent, AI-native delivery,…”.

  • One H1 headline

    Your main headline reads: “Product, engineering and AI partner for high-growth companies building for scale”.

  • Title: 45 characters

    Your title is a healthy 45 characters: “OAK'S LAB | Product, Engineering & AI Partner”.

  • Structured data in place

    Structured data found: Organization and WebSite.

  • 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://www.oakslab.com/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

100
  • 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.

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.

  • Organization data: 5 of 6 facts

    Your Organization JSON-LD gives name, url, sameAs (social profiles), description and contact details; logo would complete it.

  • Text is in the HTML

    Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (1,828 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.

Other pages

1 to fix95
  • 1 page without a meta description

    /industries/education has no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • 15 internal pages checked

    We fetched 15 pages linked from your homepage (of 37 found) and read each the way a search engine does.

6 checks passed
  • Linked pages load

    All 15 pages we checked loaded without an error.

  • Canonical URLs point to themselves

    No page we checked hands its ranking to a different URL.

  • Titles are unique

    Every page we checked has its own title.

  • Every page has an H1

    Each page we checked has a main headline.

  • No linked page is hidden from search

    None of the pages we checked carries a noindex tag.

  • Every page has a title

    All 15 pages that loaded have a <title>.

Best practices

1 to fixGoogle 10093
  • 1 JavaScript error while loading

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

  • Missing source maps

    Large scripts ship without source maps.

2 checks passed
  • Tap targets are thumb-sized

    6 of 7 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.

  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

2 to fix88
  • Local business without LocalBusiness data

    Your homepage shows a street address but no LocalBusiness JSON-LD, so Google and AI assistants have to guess your address, hours and phone from the page text.

  • No phone number on the homepage

    A local customer looking to call finds no phone number on the homepage. Add one, ideally as a tap-to-call link.

  • No opening hours

    The homepage shows no opening hours. If customers visit or call, show when.

  • No map or directions link

    There is no link to Google or Apple Maps. A directions link is one tap for a phone visitor.

  • 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 1,502 words of copy

    The homepage carries about 1,502 words of visible text.

6 checks passed
  • Clear next step on the first screen

    On a phone, the first screen shows a clear next step: “Schedule a call”.

  • 6 calls to action

    The homepage has 6 calls to action, for example “Get in touch”, “Schedule a call” and “Book a strategy call”.

  • 1 short form

    A short form (6 fields at most) is right on the homepage, asking for an email.

  • Social proof on the page

    Social proof on the homepage: 1 testimonial or review block, 44 customer or partner logos, a star rating and 1 trust badge.

  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager, Google Analytics, Hotjar and HubSpot.

  • Direct contact links

    Visitors can reach you directly: 0 phone links and 2 email links.

Privacy and tracking

  • 6 trackers load before any consent

    6

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, HubSpot and LinkedIn Insight and 1 more (measured from a US location before any click). A consent tool (Cookiebot) is installed; check it blocks these until visitors agree where the law requires it.

  • 14 cookies set on arrival

    14

    Opening the homepage sets 14 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).

  • 38 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 38 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.

1 checks passed
  • Consent tool: Cookiebot

    A consent management tool (Cookiebot) loads with the page.

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 oakslab.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
