Looking for a Google Gemini alternative for auditing your website?
Gemini is the assistant most people already have. It is sitting in the corner of the inbox, it costs nothing to try, and it will give you a view on your homepage in seconds. The view is the product. There is no browser behind it timing your page, no scan checking whether a screen reader can get through your checkout, and no evidence at all that its opinion matches the opinion of anyone who has actually visited you.

When to choose Google Gemini
Choose Gemini when you want an instant, free reaction and you already live inside Google's tools. It is the cheapest paid tier of the assistants, it will happily go back and forth with you about a paragraph, and if all you need is a sanity check on wording before you publish, it is right there and it costs nothing. That is a real use and we would use it too.
When to choose you x you i
Choose us when a reaction is not enough. We open your site in a real browser, time it, render it at phone width, scan it for accessibility, and score your headline, buttons, prices and trust signals against what thousands of real people said about real pages. The report ranks what to fix. It is $5, once, with no subscription.

Google Gemini vs you x you i: common questions
Gemini is free. Why would I pay for an audit?
Because free advice you cannot check is worth what you paid for it. Gemini cannot load your page, so it cannot tell you it takes eleven seconds on a phone. It cannot scan your site, so it cannot tell you the contrast on your buy button fails WCAG. It gives you words about your words.
Does Gemini know how my site performs in Google Search?
No. It has no access to your Search Console, so it cannot see a single query you rank for. Connect yours to us and every audit is lined up against your real clicks, impressions and positions, including the queries where an AI summary is quietly eating your traffic.
Can it tell me why nobody is buying?
It will tell you something, immediately, and it will sound plausible. Whether it is true is not a question it can answer, because it has never seen a visitor arrive on your page and leave. Our conversion findings are grounded in eye-tracking research and in what real people told us about real pages.
What does an audit cost?
$5 for one, paid once. No subscription, no seats, no annual contract.
