Launch-readiness checklist
The 52 checks that decide whether your app is ready
Shipping an app is the easy part now. Whether it’s secure, gets found, loads fast and can be shared is the part nobody surfaces to you. This is the whole checklist Actuant runs on any deployed URL — in a real browser, scored 0–100, the same every time.
Paste your URL — free to start. Or read the checklist below.
Delivery & speed
Whether the site loads at all — quickly, and over a secure, modern connection. Nothing else matters if the page never arrives.
- Reachability & speed
- HTTPS enforced
- Compression
- Modern HTTP

Security
The headers and hygiene that decide how hard your deployed app is to attack from the outside. The half a repo scanner can't see.

- Permissions-Policy
- No version leak
- security.txt

- Single H1
- Heading order

The machine-readable schema that helps search engines and AI answers understand what your app is.

How heavy the page is and what's blocking it from painting quickly — measured in a real browser, not a synthetic score.

Conversion
