How this was measured

Measured by Roentgen 1.27.0 on 2026-09-14. 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.

Walk 55 links on the entry page, 35 walkable. 2 matched a funnel step; we captured 3 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

91% of measurable text passes WCAG AA. 4+ runs fail.

worst: “Foundation” at 2.19:1 (12px, #a6b0be on #ffffff). 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 11px, below the 13px floor this check uses.

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

Form labels

a11y:form-labels

4 of 9 form fields have no label (+1 rely on placeholder only).

FixGive every input a <label> or aria-label; placeholders are not labels.

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.

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

39 of 72 interactive targets are under 44×44px on mobile.

smallest: “Show password” at 26×26px

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

Worth knowing3

3 images are shipped at more than 2x the width shown.

FixServe responsive sizes (srcset/sizes) matching the rendered width.

weight:oversized-images
Keyboard reachability

104 elements look clickable but cannot be reached by keyboard.

FixUse <button>/<a>, or add role + tabindex="0" and a key handler.

Elements — the atomic pieces — price anchors, ratings, guarantees — with their verbatim on-page text

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

We ran these passes 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.
