semperis.com does not allow embedding, so this is Google's rendering of the page.
Speed
Improve image delivery
9.6 s · 1.8 MB3 images could be 1.8 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen. Google estimates it would make the page about 9.6 s faster on a phone.
Reduce unused JavaScript
5.3 s · 802 KiBAbout 802 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 5.3 s faster on a phone.
Render-blocking requests
1.9 s4 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.9 s.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
1.6 s · 218 KiB17 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (218 KiB).
Mobile performance score: 45
45/100Your mobile performance score is 45. Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google CDN, Google Tag Manager and Accessibe Accessibility Overlay and others), adding 1.6 MB and 875 ms of main-thread time.
Legacy JavaScript
450 ms · 35 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 35 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 450 ms faster on a phone.
Reduce unused CSS
300 ms · 105 KiBAbout 105 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.
Google CDN adds 284 ms
284 msGoogle CDN costs a phone 284 ms of main-thread work and 736 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.
Google Tag Manager adds 270 ms
270 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 270 ms of main-thread work and 370 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.
Main-thread work: 2.6 s
A phone's processor spends 2.6 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.6 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
1,604 HTML elements
The page has 1,604 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
9 long tasks on the main thread
9 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 197 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
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.

Server response: 5 ms
5 msYour server sent the HTML in 5 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.
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.

9.1 sThe first text or image appears after 9.1 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
Largest Contentful Paint: 34.8 s
34.8 sYour largest element takes 34.8 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image.
Time to Interactive: 34.8 s

Speed Index: 10.2 s

Real-user TTFB: 1.3 s

Total Blocking Time: 419 ms
419 msScripts block taps and scrolling for 419 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.
16 images without width and height
16 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.
Largest content (LCP) held steady for real visitors

Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.047
0.047The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.047, good is under 0.1).
Images and page weight
Page weight: 6.3 MB in 136 requests
6.3 MBYour homepage downloads 6.3 MB in 136 requests on a phone: images 3.7 MB (45), scripts 1.8 MB (35) and other files 426 KiB (43). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
2 images over 500 KB
2 images weigh 3.5 MB together. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.
1 image far larger than shown
1.0 MB1 image is downloaded at several times the size a phone draws it, for example image-background-lightning-stirke-1920x1169.png at 1,920 px wide, shown at 390 px. Resized copies would save about 1.0 MB.
2 images in older formats
2 images (3.5 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.
1 image below the first screen load straight away
1 image further down the page (1.6 MB) download before anyone scrolls to it. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
About 1.8 g of CO₂ per visit
1.78 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 1.78 g of CO₂e: 213.9 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
Accessibility
9 buttons without a name
9 buttons have no accessible name, so screen readers announce just “button”.
2 images without alt text
2 images have no alt text, which hurts accessibility and image search.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (2 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 2 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
9 links without text
9 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
2 form fields without a label
2 form fields have no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h1 → h3 and h2 → h4), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names.
Elements with visible text labels do not have matching accessible names. (1 element).
1 checks passed
49 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 54 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 49 passed and 5 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
SEO
3 links with vague text
3 links use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind them.
172 internal links, 10 external
The homepage links to 172 pages on semperis.com and 10 external pages.

AI search readiness

Your robots.txt lets the crawlers behind ChatGPT search, Claude and Perplexity read the site and cite it in answers.
Organization data: 4 of 6 facts
Your Organization JSON-LD gives name, url, logo and sameAs (social profiles); description and contact details would complete it.
Text is in the HTML
Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (1,389 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
Other pages

Your homepage links to 2 pages by a URL that isn't their canonical one, for example /resources/introducing-ai-agents-to-your-identity-fabric, whose canonical is /resources/white-papers/introducing-ai-agents-to-your-identity-fabric.
