How this was measured

Measured by Roentgen 1.27.0 on 2026-09-21. A capture is read once and its measurements freeze there, so the stamp says which ruleset read this one.

This is detection coverage, not a verdict — it counts the conversion tactics we could prove are present, out of the 11 that apply to a saas funnel. A low count means we did not detect those patterns, not that the funnel is weak.

Against all 1,781 multi-step funnels, more conversion tactics than 10% of them.

Walk 5 links on the entry page, 3 walkable. 1 matched a funnel step; we captured 2 pages in all, this one included.

Absence is a measurement, not a recommendation: we do not know why a tactic is missing, whether it belongs here, or whether adding it would change anything. Where a walk stopped early, a tactic living deeper would also read as not detected.

contrast, mobile, typography, accessibility, weight — each with what would fix it

measuredextracted directly from the live page. a fact, not an opinion

6 of 14 measured checks need work1 could not be measured — not counted either way

Text contrast (WCAG AA)

contrast:text-contrast-wcag-aa

80% of measurable text passes WCAG AA. 4+ runs fail.

worst: “Start reading” at 1.07:1 (13px, #fdfbf7 on #f5f3ee). needs 4.5:1

FixRaise text/background contrast to ≥4.5:1 (≥3:1 for large text), especially on CTAs and body copy.

Body text size

type:body-text-size

Smallest sampled text is 8px, below the 13px floor this check uses.

FixKeep body copy ≥15-16px; reserve sub-13px for fine print only.

Named controls

a11y:named-controls

2 buttons/links have no accessible name (icon-only, no aria-label).

FixAdd aria-label to icon-only buttons and links.

Render-blocking resources

weight:render-blocking-resources

8 stylesheets/scripts in <head> block first paint.

FixDefer non-critical JS (defer/async) and inline only critical CSS.

Landmark regions

structure:landmark-regions

No <main> or <header> or <footer> landmark. screen-reader users cannot jump between regions.

FixWrap the page in <header>, <main> and <footer> (or matching ARIA roles).

Tap-target size (mobile)

mobile:tap-target-size-mobile

14 of 17 interactive targets are under 44×44px on mobile.

smallest: “(unnamed)” at 24×20px

FixGive tappable controls a ≥44×44px hit area. the touch minimum.

Worth knowing5

Line length

1 paragraph runs past ~95 characters per line.

FixCap measure at ~60-75ch for comfortable reading.

type:line-length
Form labels

3 form fields rely on placeholder text as the only label.

FixBack placeholders with a real <label>. placeholder text vanishes on input.

a11y:form-labels
Label in name

1 control has an aria-label that does not contain its visible text, so voice-control users cannot activate it by saying what they see.

FixMake the accessible name start with the visible label text.

a11y:label-in-name
Autocomplete hints

No autocomplete attributes across 3 fields. browsers cannot autofill.

FixAdd autocomplete="email"/"tel"/"name" to identity fields.

Playbook match — which funnel play this page runs — measured, evidence-quoted

We ran this pass on the pages we captured and found nothing to show. That is a measurement of this funnel, not a recommendation — and it is a different statement from a layer we never ran, which does not appear here at all.
