**Technical SEO Auditor** is an Optimizely Agent Platform agent that audits a webpage's technical search engine optimization (SEO) against Google's ranking factors. The agent delivers a prioritized report with developer-ready fix guidance.

- **Challenge** – Google PageSpeed Insights reports are technical. Marketers struggle to tell which issues affect search visibility most, and developers need specific fixes instead of scores.
- **Agent outcome** – The agent analyzes a page with Google PageSpeed Insights data and evaluates it against Google's ranking factors, including Core Web Vitals, crawlability, meta tags, and accessibility. It delivers an audit report that explains each issue, why it matters, and how to fix it, with an effort estimate.
- **Value** – Marketers get issues ranked by their impact on search visibility. Effort estimates separate quick wins from larger technical projects. Developer-ready fixes speed up hand-offs.
