Core Web Vitals
inside WP admin.
Track LCP, INP, CLS, FCP, and TTFB without leaving WordPress. Scheduled scans, trend charts, alerts. Powered by the official Google PageSpeed API.
Manual checks miss regressions.
PageSpeed Insights is the measurement engine. But running it manually means you only catch problems after users complain. Performance decays between your checks.
- One URL at a time
- No history, no alerts, no trends
- Forgotten deploys break Vitals silently
Monitored, not just measured.
Cirv Pulse runs PageSpeed on a schedule, tracks every metric over time, emails you when thresholds break. Inside WP admin — no third-party dashboard.
- Per-page scheduled scans
- 30/60/90-day trend charts
- Email alerts on regression

Frequently asked.
What metrics does Cirv Pulse track?
LCP, INP, CLS, FCP, and TTFB — the Core Web Vitals plus First Contentful Paint and Time to First Byte. Measured via the official Google PageSpeed Insights API.
Does this replace PageSpeed Insights?
No — it uses the same API. Cirv Pulse adds scheduling, history, per-page tracking, and email alerts so you catch regressions as they happen instead of remembering to check manually.
Will it make my site faster?
Cirv Pulse monitors. It doesn't cache, minify, or rewrite assets. Pair it with WP Rocket, Perfmatters, or server-level optimization to actually fix what Pulse flags.
How often does it scan?
Free: on-demand only. Pro: scheduled daily or weekly across every page you configure, with email alerts when thresholds break.
