  • Treo

    A web dashboard for tracking Core Web Vitals across sites using Chrome UX Report and Lighthouse data.

    FreemiumProprietaryWeb

    Treo tracks Core Web Vitals from Chrome UX Report and Lighthouse data without installing a script, so field data is limited to what CrUX covers.

    WebPageTest provides freemium on-demand tests with waterfalls, filmstrips and throttling from multiple locations, rather than continuous real user monitoring.

    FreeProprietaryWeb
