Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
1.2 s · 352 KiBAbout 352 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.
Render-blocking requests
1.2 s4 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.2 s.
Mobile performance score: 37
37/100Your mobile performance score is 37 (desktop: 97). Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
Improve image delivery
17.6 MB7 images could be 17.6 MB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Hubspot and Cloudflare CDN and others), adding 935 KiB and 861 ms of main-thread time.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
700 ms · 155 KiB13 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (155 KiB).
Google Tag Manager adds 568 ms
568 msGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 568 ms of main-thread work and 677 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: 2.1 s
A phone's processor spends 2.1 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.2 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
9 long tasks on the main thread
9 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 212 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Legacy JavaScript
150 ms · 24 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 24 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
Reduce unused CSS
65 KiBAbout 65 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.
Phones get a much slower page than desktops
Desktop scores 97 but mobile only 37. 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.

Server response: 3 ms
3 msYour server sent the HTML in 3 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.
Largest Contentful Paint: 12.2 s
12.2 sYour largest element takes 12.2 s to render on a phone. Google's threshold for “good” is 2.5 s. The largest element is the image “Tekscan Pressure Mapping Technology”.
Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.783
0.783The layout shifts by 0.783 while loading, so content jumps under the reader's thumb. Good is under 0.1.
Time to Interactive: 14.4 s
14.4 sThe page becomes fully interactive after 14.4 s. Good is under 3.8 s.
First Contentful Paint: 3.9 s
3.9 sThe first text or image appears after 3.9 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.
Real-user TTFB: 859 ms
859 msReal visitors wait 859 ms for your server to start answering (75th percentile). Good is under 800 ms.
Speed Index: 5.1 s
5.1 sVisually, the page fills in at 5.1 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.
2 images without width and height
2 images have no width and height attributes, so the layout jumps as each one loads.
Tap response (INP) held steady for real visitors
+3%Over the last 25 four-week periods to 2026-10-17, real Chrome visitors' tap response (inp) went from 123 ms to 129 ms at the 75th percentile (Chrome UX Report (opens in a new tab) history).

Images and page weight
Page weight: 19.1 MB in 97 requests
19.1 MBYour homepage downloads 19.1 MB in 97 requests on a phone: images 17.9 MB (32), scripts 988 KiB (26) and fonts 95 KiB (4). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
2 images over 500 KB
2 images weigh 1.8 MB together. On a phone connection a single image that size takes seconds.
4 images far larger than shown
1.3 MB4 images are downloaded at several times the size a phone draws them, for example Tekscan-IScan-System-software-hires.png at 1,818 px wide, shown at 350 px. Resized copies would save about 1.3 MB.
5 images in older formats
5 images (2.4 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.
An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded
hero-bg_0.jpg is on the first screen but marked loading="lazy", so the browser waits before fetching it and the page looks finished later. Load it eagerly (and give it fetchpriority="high" if it is the main image).
1 image below the first screen load straight away
1 image further down the page (758 KiB) download before anyone scrolls to it. Adding loading="lazy" lets the first screen load first.
About 5.4 g of CO₂ per visit
5.40 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 5.40 g of CO₂e: 648.4 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
Accessibility
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.
2 tap targets too small
2 tap targets are too small or too close together to hit reliably with a finger.
1 form field without a label
1 form field has no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
1 link without text
1 visible link has no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where it goes.
Alternative text of images should not be repeated as text (1 element)
Alternative text of images should not be repeated as text: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated minor by axe-core.
Headings skip levels
Headings skip levels (h2 → h6 and h2 → h6), which makes the page harder to scan with a screen reader.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 26 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
48 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 53 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 48 passed and 5 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.
2 H1 headlines
There are 2 <h1> headlines (“Home” and “Impactful Insightsfrom Surface Sensing”). One clear main headline is easier for people and search engines.
Meta description is long (220 characters)
Your meta description is 220 characters; Google truncates after about 160, so the end of your pitch is cut.
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.
5 links with vague text
5 links use generic text like “click here” or “learn more”, which tells Google nothing about the page behind them.
1 link crawlers can't follow
1 link has no real href, so search engines can't follow it.
No X (Twitter) card tag
No twitter:card tag. X falls back to Open Graph, which is incomplete here.
180 internal links, 4 external
The homepage links to 180 pages on tekscan.com and 4 external pages.
4 checks passed
Title: 64 characters
Your title is a healthy 64 characters: “Pressure Mapping, Force Measurement, & Tactile Sensors | Tekscan”.
Canonical URL set
The canonical URL is https://www.tekscan.com/.
robots.txt in place
robots.txt is in place.
XML sitemap found
Your XML sitemap is reachable at https://www.tekscan.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 https://www.tekscan.com/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
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
Your server sends the page's text in the HTML (896 words), so crawlers that don't run JavaScript still read it.
Other pages
2 pages without a meta description
https://www.tekscan.com/products-solutions/pressure-mapping-technology and https://www.tekscan.com/industry/biomechanics have no meta description, so Google writes the search snippet from whatever text it finds.
15 internal pages checked

No console errors
No JavaScript errors were logged while the page loaded on a phone.
Tap targets are thumb-sized
13 of 15 tappable elements near the top are at least 24 px.
Mobile viewport set
The page declares a mobile viewport.
Content and conversion
No call to action on the first screen
On a phone, there is no call to action on the first screen: visitors have to scroll to find out what to do next.
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.
Thin social proof
Social proof on the homepage: 3 customer or partner logos. Pairing it with named testimonials or customer logos makes it far more convincing.
No opening hours
The homepage shows no opening hours. If customers visit or call, show when.
Phone number is not tap-to-call
Your phone number appears as text but isn't a tel: link, so phone visitors can't tap to call.
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 720 words of copy
The homepage carries about 720 words of visible text.
4 checks passed
13 calls to action
The homepage has 13 calls to action, for example “Buy Products Online”, “Contact Us” and “Learn more →”.
1 short form
A short form (1 field at most) is right on the homepage.
Analytics in place
Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager and Cloudflare Web Analytics.
Phone number on the homepage
Your phone number is on the homepage.
Privacy and tracking
6 trackers load before any consent
6Before 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 (HubSpot cookie banner) is installed; check it blocks these until visitors agree where the law requires it.
11 cookies set on arrival
11Opening the homepage sets 11 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).
31 other companies contacted
Loading the homepage contacts 31 hosts run by other companies (fonts, scripts, analytics, ads), each of which sees the visitor's IP address.
1 checks passed
Consent tool: HubSpot cookie banner
A consent management tool (HubSpot cookie banner) 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 tekscan.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
