About Lighthouse
Lighthouse is Google’s open-source auditing tool for measuring web page quality across performance, accessibility, SEO, and best practices. Originally built into Chrome DevTools, Lighthouse runs a series of automated tests against any URL and produces a scored report highlighting exactly where your site excels and where it falls short. For anyone responsible for a website’s technical health, it is an essential diagnostic tool.
Performance scores from Lighthouse directly relate to Core Web Vitals — the metrics Google uses as ranking signals. Slow load times, layout shifts, and poor interactivity all get flagged with specific recommendations for improvement. The tool also catches accessibility issues like missing alt text, poor colour contrast, and navigation problems that affect users with disabilities.
Where Lighthouse becomes especially useful is in automated monitoring. Rather than manually running audits, you can integrate Lighthouse into CI/CD pipelines to test every deployment, or schedule regular audits through automation platforms like n8n. Our system integration team builds these kinds of automated quality checks for clients who need to maintain performance standards across large sites. Combined with our business automation services, Lighthouse data can trigger alerts when scores drop below acceptable thresholds.
Whether you run Lighthouse from Chrome DevTools, the command line, or as a Node module in your build pipeline, it gives you actionable data about your website’s quality. For organisations serious about their web presence, regular Lighthouse audits — ideally automated — are a baseline practice. Our AI consulting team can help you build monitoring dashboards that track these metrics over time.

How it works
We work hand-in-hand with you to implement Lighthouse
As Lighthouse consultants we work with you hand in hand build more efficient and effective operations. Here’s how we will work with you to automate your business and integrate Lighthouse with integrate and automate 800+ tools.
Step 1
Run Your First Audit
Open Chrome DevTools, navigate to the Lighthouse tab, and run an audit on your most important pages. Review the scores and recommendations to understand your current baseline.
Step 2
Prioritise Issues by Impact
Focus on the recommendations that will have the biggest effect on your scores. Lighthouse colour-codes issues by severity — red items typically offer the largest improvements when fixed.
Step 3
Address Performance Problems
Tackle the most common performance issues first: optimise images, reduce unused JavaScript, implement lazy loading, and ensure your server responds quickly. These changes often produce the most noticeable score improvements.
Step 4
Fix Accessibility Gaps
Work through the accessibility audit findings. Add missing alt text, fix colour contrast issues, ensure proper heading hierarchy, and verify that all interactive elements are keyboard accessible.
Step 5
Set Up Automated Auditing
Install the Lighthouse CLI or Node module and integrate it into your deployment pipeline. Configure it to run against your key pages after each deployment and fail the build if scores drop below your defined thresholds.
Step 6
Track Scores Over Time
Store audit results in a database or monitoring tool so you can track performance trends. Set up alerts for score drops and review results regularly to catch regressions early.
