Competitor PageSpeed Analysis agent
Competitor PageSpeed Analysis is an Optimizely Opal agent that runs a Google Lighthouse audit for your page and a competitor's, then delivers a side-by-side gap analysis with prioritized recommendations.
- Challenge – Teams rarely have a clear, side-by-side view of how their page performance stacks up against competitors. Without a benchmark, knowing whether slow load times and poor Core Web Vitals are a critical disadvantage is difficult. Knowing where to focus first is equally difficult.
- Agent outcome – The agent runs a Google Lighthouse audit on both pages simultaneously and presents the results as a prioritized gap analysis.
- Value – Teams stop guessing and start acting with precision. Benchmark performance directly against competition to prioritize the technical improvements with the most impact. Acting on these insights turns page speed from a liability into a competitive advantage.
