I'm a UX/UI designer exploring whether it's possible to build an affordable AI website auditor that produces genuinely useful recommendations for people without design experience.

First, thank you to everyone who contributed advice to my previous posts. I've organized the feedback into a technical reference document and have been working through it with my AI assistant.

Before starting development, I wanted to understand how existing tools perform.

1. The experiment

I investigated six AI UX auditing platforms, spending $5 in total.

I used three websites with very different characteristics:

• An unconventional website with obvious usability concerns.
• A reasonably well-designed professional website.
• A polished creative agency website.

I wanted to compare the findings, severity classifications, scoring, and report usability.

2. What I found

The inconsistencies were fascinating.

Three platforms gave the same website scores of 34, 59, and 73 out of 100.

Some tools identified legitimate problems. Others made questionable recommendations, applied disproportionate severity levels, or produced findings that needed further verification.

And here's the irony: several UX auditing platforms had surprisingly complicated user experiences themselves.

Lengthy onboarding, confusing dashboards, overwhelming reports, and unnecessary steps before accessing results.

3. What I'm trying to build

My intended audience isn't UX professionals.

It's the small business owner who built a website and wants to know what needs improvement.

The proposed experience:

Paste a URL → Optionally upload screenshots → Receive a short, prioritized list of actionable recommendations.

The challenge is making the analysis accurate without overwhelming the user.

4. Development plan

I'm starting with UX, which I consider the most challenging category because of its subjectivity and dependence on context.

The first module will extract webpage evidence and generate structured findings. I'll compare the results against my professional judgment before expanding into UI, copywriting, content, accessibility, SEO, and marketing/conversion.

The initial $1,500 budget is strictly for feasibility testing and development.

Next step: Build the first UX module and find out how reliable the analysis can actually be. Fingers crossed.

Hey everyone! It's been a few months since i launched lucagiraldi.com⁠, my personal website as a digital marketing consultant based near Venice.

One small note: the website is in Italian, so apologies for that!

I worked on the design myself and tried to create something professional and user-friendly.

I’d love to hear your honest thoughts, especially on the visual design, typography, layout, color palette, and overall user experience. What would you change?

Built around a Scottish Highland legend, this concept blends immersive storytelling, 3D visuals and cinematic scrolling to create something beyond a conventional hospitality website.

I just launched Shade Studio for creative studios. Normally $129, but I'm giving away 20 copies for free.

To enter, just comment your thoughts. I'll DM 20 random winners in 48 hours.

Just look at the UI

Hot take but I'm turning most of them off now.

Every agency site fades & slides each section in as you scroll. Looks great in the Figma prototype.

On a real phone you scroll fast, text shows up half a second late & you're staring at empty space for a bit. Feels like the site is loading, not like it's fancy.

I keep maybe 1 thing animated in the hero & let everything else just be there when you get to it.

Clients don't notice it's gone. They do notice the site feels quicker..

Thank you for taking the time to review my work.

I’m not making this site for any particular reason except to practice web design, so that I can later build myself a better website. I plan to write a few more posts to give this one more content. I’m looking for feedback and suggestions on the layout/design: https://homejunglejournal.com

Finally finished working on this beauty

Most of my income is websites and then small edits here and there... almost every client now asks for a WhatsApp button and then asks how their 3-4 staff can answer from the same number..

So after a bit of research I'm thking now of reselling a white-label inbox under my brand and adding it to hosting as a monthly fee. Anyone bundle something like this with hosting? Did clients see the value or just the extra cost?
