Productized
Website Launch Audit
Know whether the site is ready to launch — and get a prioritized punch list with concrete fixes — before soft-404s, broken forms, weak headers, or missing legal basics become public problems.
Who it’s for
- Founders and operators before go-live or a redesign cutover
- Agencies handing a build to a client
- Teams that already ran Lighthouse and still need cross-discipline triage
Who it’s not for
- Buyers needing a VPAT, pen-test certification, or ranking guarantees
- Sites that need implementation inside the audit fee
What we evaluate
Links and routing · typography · color/contrast · layout · responsiveness · HTML semantics · front-end hygiene · accessibility (WCAG 2.1 AA sampling) · content/trust · forms and email · SEO foundations · performance · browser/device · legal-page presence · security hygiene · DNS/deploy readiness · analytics · day-of-launch ritual.
Assurance modules: Content · Commerce · App/SaaS · Membership.

FAQ
What do I get?
A written audit with a launch verdict, prioritized findings, and concrete fixes.
Is remediation included?
No. Fixes are a separate quote.
Launch Audit vs Launch Assurance?
Audit ($749): core, ≤10 pages, 5 business days. Assurance ($1,295): +1 scenario module, ≤25 pages, 30-min walkthrough, one retest within 14 days.
Is this an accessibility certification?
No. We sample against WCAG 2.1 AA. A deeper accessibility pass is an add-on and still not a VPAT.
Do you guarantee rankings or security?
No. This is a diagnostic quality gate, not SEO placement or a penetration test.
