Badge
Scored by Designesy
Embed your site's live score: the grade, the score and the date it was measured, linked to the full report.
An automated score from 45 deterministic checks against the published contract, on the date shown. It does not certify the site, attest to legal or accessibility compliance, or endorse the site or its products.
Live badge
One image per site, at /api/badge?url=. It shows the site, its grade and score, and the date of the run, and links to the site's report. A site that cannot be read shows "Not scored".

- The badge reads the score cache. It shows the score the cache holds for your site and the date that score was measured: the same run your /score report shows.
- A site with no score in the cache is scored once, by the same 45 checks the score page runs, and later views read that result. New scores started by badges are rate limited; at the limit the badge reads "Not scored" for a minute, then tries again.
- The badge names the site it scored, and its link opens that site's report.
- When the site cannot be read (blocked, unreachable, or an address the engine refuses), the badge reads "Not scored" and shows no grade.
Grade scale
Grades on the badge
The score is out of 100: a weighted average of the 45 checks, adjusted by an anti-slop deduction, an originality lift and two caps. The methodology shows the arithmetic, and the contract lists every check.
Static images
Three fixed images read "Scored by Designesy" and carry no grade, for places that cannot load a per-site image. Use one only on a site Designesy has scored, linked to that site's score: replace YOURSITE.com with your domain.
