Lighthouse Audit

ChatGPT audits third-party script performance and presents the findings as a cost-benefit analysis. For each script, it shows the performance impact alongside its business purpose, helping your team decide which scripts to keep, defer, or remove. This business-aware framing makes it easier to get stakeholder buy-in for script cleanup.
