Executive Summary

Product teams, SREs and performance engineers increasingly struggle to trust web performance reports because measurement is often entangled with probabilistic AI outputs that are neither reproducible nor auditable, making it hard to prove Core Web Vitals compliance, debug regressions, or satisfy SEO and executive audits. Organizations need deterministic, CI-integrated measurements they can trace, sign, and act upon without conflating raw measurement with AI inference. You could build a deterministic measurement platform that produces reproducible artifacts (traces, filmstrips, HARs, metric extracts) with tamper-evident signatures and CI-friendly APIs, paired with a separate AI analysis layer that consumes those immutable artifacts to generate explanations, remediation steps and risk scores. This separation preserves auditability and reproducibility while still letting teams use AI for triage and remediation suggestions. The market timing is strong: roughly 3 million commercial sites × $1.2K ACV implies a ~$3.6B addressable market driven by Core Web Vitals, SEO pressure, and adoption of CI-based performance budgets, and your estimate rates the opportunity 86/100 for market and 88/100 for revenue potential. Recurring monitoring plus AI-enabled analysis creates a predictable SaaS revenue path. The competitive edge is clear — cryptographically-verifiable, deterministic measurements plus a modular AI analysis tier address a trust gap current vendors rarely solve — but you’ll face medium competition from established monitoring vendors and the technical challenge of building a robust, cross-browser runner. Focus early on developer ergonomics, clear standards adoption, and CI integrations to win credibility and enterprise customers.

Market Opportunity

Separate deterministic web performance measurement from AI analysis targets a $3.6B = 3M commercial websites × $1.2K ACV (annual monitoring + analysis) total addressable market with medium saturation and a year-over-year growth rate of 10-12% CAGR — digital experience monitoring and APM adjacent markets have grown ~10-12% annually (sources: Gartner, Forrester summaries of APM/DXM market trends).

Key trends driving demand: Core Web Vitals and SEO-driven performance targets are forcing product teams to measure and remediate front-end issues more aggressively — this creates recurring demand for reliable measurement.; Organizations are adopting CI-driven performance checks and performance budgets, creating a market for deterministic, reproducible testing integrated into pipelines.; AI models accelerate analysis and remediation suggestion generation, but teams are worried about reproducibility and auditability — a separation of measurement vs AI-estimates fills this trust gap.; Shift-left performance testing (developers running tests in pre-merge CI) increases demand for deterministic, fast, and lightweight measurement agents..

Key competitors include WebPageTest, Google Lighthouse / PageSpeed Insights, SpeedCurve, Calibre.
