Lighthouse CI

free From $0/mo · Founded 2019 · self-hosted

Google's open-source Lighthouse audits in CI — track Core Web Vitals on every deploy.

What it does well

  • Integrates directly into CI pipelines to block performance regressions before deployment.
  • Completely free and open-source, maintained by the Google Chrome team.
  • Tracks performance budgets and historical trends for key metrics like Core Web Vitals.

Where it falls short

  • Self-hosted only, requiring engineering resources to set up and maintain the server.
  • Lacks a dedicated graphical user interface; relies on CI logs and a basic dashboard.
  • Only provides synthetic lab data, not real user monitoring (RUM) or uptime checks.
