Audit my UXFAQ
A free usability diagnostic. Submit your site with product context and get a 0–100 score across 15 dimensions — plus a friction map, quick wins and prioritised fixes.
Your homepage is fetched and measured — headings, navigation, forms, CTAs, images, metadata — then scored by explicit rules. Anything needing interaction or manual review is labelled, never guessed.
No. It finds structural friction fast — what expert review catches in an hour. Real-user testing still answers why people hesitate.
Yes — audit, full diagnosis and shareable result. No account, no email wall. URLs are fetched once and never published.
A 5-second test, journey with friction levels, friction map, CTA and form checks, accessibility split, quick wins and an effort matrix.
When to use it

Map friction and quick wins so the redesign fixes measured problems, not imagined ones.

Triangulate where the journey breaks — forms, clarity, trust — before changing everything.
03
Turn vague UX complaints into a ranked effort/impact list the whole team can act on.
That's a design problem with a research process behind it. Audit it free in 3 minutes — or we map the journey, fix the structure, and hand back a system your team can keep shipping against.
