Speed

8 to fix77
  • Render-blocking requests

    1.5 s

    7 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 1.5 s.

  • 8 third-party services on the page

    8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Facebook and Hubspot and others), adding 2.3 MB and 1.6 s of main-thread time.

  • Use efficient cache lifetimes

    300 ms · 728 KiB

    40 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (728 KiB).

  • Google Tag Manager adds 891 ms

    891 ms

    Google Tag Manager costs a phone 891 ms of main-thread work and 1.2 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.

  • Mobile performance score: 77

    77/100

    Your mobile performance score is 77 (desktop: 67). Pages that score under 90 lose visitors before the first paint.

  • Reduce unused JavaScript

    999 KiB

    About 999 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page.

  • Main-thread work: 3.1 s

    A phone's processor spends 3.1 s on main-thread work while loading, 1.7 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.

  • Hubspot adds 155 ms

    155 ms

    Hubspot costs a phone 155 ms of main-thread work and 348 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

    150 ms · 51 KiB

    About 51 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.

  • 20 long tasks on the main thread

    20 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 192 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.

  • Font display

    50 ms

    Web fonts hide text while they load. Setting font-display: swap shows text immediately (about 50 ms).

  • Minify JavaScript

    49 KiB

    49 KiB could be saved by minifying JavaScript.

  • Legacy JavaScript

    44 KiB

    Polyfills for old browsers add 44 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need.

  • Duplicated JavaScript

    25 KiB

    25 KiB JavaScript is shipped twice across bundles.

  • Minify CSS

    11 KiB

    11 KiB could be saved by minifying CSS.

  • 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: 2 ms

    2 ms

    Your server sent the HTML in 2 ms, well inside Google's 600 ms guideline.

Core Web Vitals

5 to fix79
  • Time to Interactive: 22.6 s

    22.6 s

    The page becomes fully interactive after 22.6 s. Good is under 3.8 s.

  • Total Blocking Time: 688 ms

    688 ms

    Scripts block taps and scrolling for 688 ms in total while the page loads. Good is under 200 ms.

  • First Contentful Paint: 2.3 s

    2.3 s

    The first text or image appears after 2.3 s on a phone. Good is under 1.8 s.

  • Speed Index: 3.7 s

    3.7 s

    Visually, the page fills in at 3.7 s (Speed Index). Good is under 3.4 s.

  • 1 image without width and height

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

  • Not enough real-visitor data yet

    Chrome's UX Report (opens in a new tab) has too little real-visitor traffic for this site, so the figures here are lab measurements from Google's test phone on a throttled 4G connection.

2 checks passed
  • Largest Contentful Paint: 2.3 s

    2.3 s

    Your largest element renders in 2.3 s on a phone, inside Google's 2.5 s “good” threshold. The largest element is the text “This is not a mere change of logo, email address, or legal …”.

  • Cumulative Layout Shift: 0.018

    0.018

    The layout barely moves while loading (CLS 0.018, good is under 0.1).

Images and page weight

2 to fix81
  • Page weight: 2.8 MB in 144 requests

    2.8 MB

    Your homepage downloads 2.8 MB in 144 requests on a phone: scripts 2.3 MB (57), fonts 395 KiB (15) and stylesheets 56 KiB (2). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.

  • An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded

    65945950522859f9c74f8988_Launch logo-white.svg 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).

  • About 0.8 g of CO₂ per visit

    0.79 g

    By the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.79 g of CO₂e: 94.5 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.

2 checks passed
  • Images use modern formats

    Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.

  • 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 8687
  • Delayed refresh under 20 hours must not be used (1 element)

    Delayed refresh under 20 hours must not be used: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated critical by axe-core.

  • No main landmark

    The page has no <main> landmark, so screen-reader users cannot jump straight to the content.

  • Page should contain a level-one heading (1 element)

    Page should contain a level-one heading: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

  • All page content should be contained by landmarks (1 element)

    All page content should be contained by landmarks: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.

2 checks passed
  • Every image has alt text

    All 1 image in the HTML carry an alt attribute.

  • 14 automated accessibility rules passed

    axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 18 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 14 passed and 4 failed. 1 more need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.

SEO

7 to fixGoogle 9260
  • No meta description

    No meta description, so Google writes its own snippet from whatever text it finds.

  • No H1 headline

    There is no <h1>, so neither visitors nor Google get a clear main headline.

  • Title is short (17 characters)

    Your title is only 17 characters: “We are now Launch”. Between 30 and 65 characters leaves room to say what you do and for whom.

  • No structured data

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

  • No canonical URL

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

  • No social preview image

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

  • Only 0 internal links

    The homepage links to only 0 pages on your own site, so visitors and crawlers find few routes into the rest of it.

  • No X (Twitter) card tag

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

2 checks passed
  • 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.vectorform.com/sitemap.xml.

AI search readiness

1 to fix83
  • 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.vectorform.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.

1 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.

Best practices

2 to fixGoogle 7389
  • 3 third-party cookies

    3 third-party cookies are set on load; browsers are restricting these, so whatever relies on them breaks.

  • 4 JavaScript errors while loading

    4 errors were logged to the browser console while the page loaded, for example “MetaRouter snippet included twice.”.

  • Browser-reported issues

    Chrome logged issues while loading the page (“Cookie”).

1 checks passed
  • Mobile viewport set

    The page declares a mobile viewport.

Content and conversion

5 to fix33
  • 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.

  • No calls to action

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

  • No social proof

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

  • No direct contact details

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

  • Only about 56 words

    The homepage has only about 56 words of visible text; thin pages give Google and first-time buyers little to go on.

  • No form on the homepage

    There is no form on the homepage, so every lead has to click through to another page first.

  • 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.

1 checks passed
  • Analytics in place

    Analytics detected: Google Tag Manager, Google Analytics, HubSpot, Segment and LinkedIn Insight.

Privacy and tracking

  • 11 trackers load before any consent

    11

    Before a visitor clicks anything, the page loads Google Ads, Google Analytics, Google Tag Manager, Hotjar and HubSpot and 6 mores (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.

  • 17 cookies set on arrival

    17

    Opening the homepage sets 17 cookies (measured from a US location before any click).

  • 49 other companies contacted

    Loading the homepage contacts 49 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 vectorform.com, because details like these could help someone attack a site. Every review keeps them private, whatever they found.
