LeakAudit and HubSpot Website Grader solve different jobs. HubSpot Website Grader is a free, rule-based tool that scores your site across 4 generic hygiene dimensions — performance, SEO, mobile, and security — and outputs a number out of 100. It's built as a top-of-funnel lead magnet for HubSpot's CRM and marketing automation platform, and every report is HubSpot-branded.
LeakAudit is a conversion diagnostic. It uses GPT-4o Vision and Claude to analyze 8 categories — first impression, copywriting, UX, SEO, trust, performance, mobile, and conversion architecture — and attaches an estimated monthly dollar leak to each audit. It auto-detects Shopify stores and swaps in 8 ecommerce-specific categories with benchmarks from published Shopify data (1.4% median CVR, ~70% cart abandonment, 18% Shop Pay lift). The core audit is free, the optional CPR Playbook is a one-time $8.99 unlock per audit, and the Agency Plan is $49/month for 20 white-labeled PDF reports.
Use Website Grader if you want a basic technical hygiene checklist. Use LeakAudit if you want to know why your website isn't converting — and how much it's costing you each month.

We're not going to pretend HubSpot built something useless. Website Grader has been around for over a decade and it does a few things genuinely well.
You drop a URL, give them an email, and you get a report. No credit card, no trial timer. HubSpot eats the cost because you become a CRM lead — that's a fair trade if you're fine with it.
Page speed, responsive design, SSL, meta tags, image compression. Nothing cutting-edge, but Grader will catch the obvious technical debt that you can forward straight to a developer.
HubSpot is a $20B+ public company. If you need to show a score to a non-technical stakeholder,"my HubSpot Grader score" carries weight in a way a scrappy indie tool might not. We get it.
If you're already planning to use HubSpot CRM, CMS, or marketing hub, Website Grader is a reasonable first touchpoint. The report pipes you directly into their product suite.
Website Grader tells you your meta description is missing. LeakAudit tells you your headline is killing your sales.
Grader gives you a score out of 100 and a checklist. LeakAudit takes your category gaps, maps them against industry CVR benchmarks, and outputs an estimated monthly revenue leak — so you know which fix is worth $200 and which is worth $20,000.
Grader scans your HTML for patterns. LeakAudit screenshots your page, feeds it to GPT-4o Vision, and judges your actual design choices — hero image, CTA hierarchy, trust signals, visual weight — the same way a human critic would, just faster.
Grader runs the same checks on every URL. LeakAudit auto-detects Shopify and switches to 8 ecommerce categories: product page, checkout, trust stack, mobile commerce, app bloat, Shopify SEO, retention, and sales copy. See the Shopify audit →
Grader reports are HubSpot-branded forever. LeakAudit's Agency Plan is $49/month for 20 fully branded PDFs — your logo, your colors, your name. Lead magnets, sales-call openers, paid deliverables. Agency Plan details →
Grader's output reads like a compliance report. LeakAudit lets you pick a tone — brutal, friend, or professional — and generates commentary specific to your page. People forward it. People act on it. That's the difference between a document and a decision.
$8.99 unlocks verbatim copy rewrites (before/after), a step-by-step fix plan, a 30-day content calendar, a quick-wins checklist, and a dev handoff email. Grader tells you what's broken. LeakAudit hands you the replacement text.
Two tools, two different jobs. Pick based on what you're actually trying to fix.
Five questions buyers ask before they switch.
