First-party sessions vs aggregated public data
Auditzy™ monitors captured sessions and page views from visitors on your site. PSI’s CrUX section summarizes eligible Chrome-user data without exposing your individual first-party visits.
First-Party RUM vs Lighthouse and Public CrUX
Auditzy™ vs PageSpeed Insights
Auditzy™ monitors real-user experiences on your site for captured sessions and page views, with context such as device, network speed, device memory (RAM), operating system, browser, location, page, and configured journey. PageSpeed Insights reports a Lighthouse lab test and aggregated Chrome UX Report data when the tested URL or origin is eligible.
Short Answer
PageSpeed Insights Reports Aggregated Data; Auditzy™ Monitors Your Site’s Real Users
PageSpeed Insights combines one controlled Lighthouse audit with available CrUX data aggregated from eligible Chrome users over a rolling reporting window. It does not expose your individual first-party sessions or page views. Auditzy™ captures real-user experience data directly from your site, reveals variation across user and page segments, and connects website-speed differences with configured conversion funnels.

| Reporting window | Collected as captured real-user sessions and page views occur | Lighthouse reflects the current test; CrUX summarizes a rolling public reporting window |
| Segmentation | Page, device, network speed, device memory (RAM), operating system, browser, location, and configured journey context | Public URL or origin data with limited dimensions; no first-party session-level segmentation |
| Conversion insights | Shows how website-speed differences relate to configured conversion funnels and journey outcomes | Does not collect your first-party conversion-funnel or business-outcome data |
| Diagnostics | Identifies affected production pages, page views, user segments, and performance trends | Provides Lighthouse audits and available CrUX metric distributions for the requested URL or origin |

Key Differences
What Changes Between Auditzy™ and PageSpeed Insights
Granular segments vs limited dimensions
Auditzy™ breaks down experience by page, device, network speed, memory, operating system, browser, location, and configured journey. PSI provides broader URL- or origin-level reporting.
Conversion funnels vs performance reports
Auditzy™ relates real-user website speed to configured conversion funnels. PageSpeed Insights reports lab diagnostics and public Core Web Vitals data, not your conversion outcomes.
Ongoing site monitoring vs requested reports
Auditzy™ collects data as captured sessions and page views occur. PSI produces a report when requested and pairs that test with its available rolling CrUX dataset.

Questions, Answered
Auditzy™ vs PageSpeed Insights FAQ
Does PageSpeed Insights include real-user data?
PageSpeed Insights displays aggregated Chrome UX Report data when a URL or origin has enough eligible Chrome-user data. This is public field data, not your first-party session or page-view dataset.
Does PageSpeed Insights show individual user sessions?
No. PSI does not expose individual sessions or page views. Its CrUX data is aggregated, while its Lighthouse section comes from one controlled lab test.
What does Auditzy™ measure that PageSpeed Insights does not?
Auditzy™ monitors captured sessions and page views from visitors on your site with context including page, device, network speed, device memory, operating system, browser, location, and configured journey. It also relates website speed to configured conversion funnels.
Can PageSpeed Insights show how speed affects conversions?
No. PageSpeed Insights does not collect your first-party conversion-funnel or business-outcome data. It provides Lighthouse diagnostics and available aggregated CrUX performance data.
Why might Auditzy™ and PageSpeed Insights show different results?
They use different datasets and reporting windows. Auditzy™ measures captured visits to your site. PSI combines a current controlled Lighthouse test with aggregated CrUX data from eligible Chrome users over a rolling window.
Why does PageSpeed Insights sometimes show no field data?
CrUX data is shown only when the requested URL or origin meets Chrome UX Report eligibility and data-density requirements. Auditzy™ uses first-party data captured from your own monitored site rather than relying on public CrUX eligibility.
