Why use this over CLI

Same engine, better experience

Running Lighthouse locally means installing Node, configuring Chrome flags, and interpreting raw JSON. PageSpeed Insights gives you a score but hides the useful details. DebugUtils gives you the full picture with zero setup.

Lighthouse CLI

  • Requires Node.js setup
  • Local machine affects results
  • No shareable reports

PageSpeed Insights

  • ~ Scores only, limited detail
  • No waterfall or filmstrip
  • No video recording

DebugUtils

  • Paste URL and go
  • Full waterfall + filmstrip + video
  • Shareable report URLs

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What is a Lighthouse audit?

Lighthouse is an open-source tool by Google that audits web pages for performance, accessibility, best practices, and SEO. It runs in a real browser, simulates a mobile device, and produces scores from 0-100 for each category along with specific, actionable recommendations.

What's a good Lighthouse performance score?

A score of 90-100 is considered good (green), 50-89 needs improvement (orange), and below 50 is poor (red). Most production sites score between 40-70. DebugUtils shows you exactly which audits are dragging your score down and how much each fix is worth.

How is this different from Chrome DevTools Lighthouse?

DebugUtils runs Lighthouse on dedicated infrastructure — your local machine's CPU, memory, and network don't affect results. You also get a request waterfall, filmstrip, video recording, and a shareable report URL that DevTools doesn't provide.

How is this different from PageSpeed Insights?

PageSpeed Insights shows scores and basic recommendations but lacks a request waterfall, visual filmstrip, video recording, and LCP element screenshot. DebugUtils gives you the complete diagnostic picture in one report, and every report has a shareable URL.

Do I need to install anything?

No. DebugUtils runs Lighthouse v12 on our servers using a real Chrome browser. Just paste your URL and get a full report in under 2 minutes — no CLI setup, no Node.js, no browser extensions.
