This product was not featured by Product Hunt yet. It will not be visible on their landing page and won't be ranked (cannot win product of the day regardless of upvotes).
I built Carbonless because I could not tell how much of any website carbon number was measurement and how much was assumption.
So this one measures. A real browser loads your page twice: once cold, once with a warm cache, recording every request on the wire. Repeat-visit weight comes from the actual reload, not a constant. Findings name the specific files worth fixing and what each change saves. When a site serves the crawler a bot wall, the scan fails with that reason. No rating gets published for a page nobody actually sees.
For teams there is a JSON API and a GitHub Action that fails your PR when the preview deployment crosses a carbon or page-weight budget.
The measurement approach started as a peer-reviewed IEEE conference paper (https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/10223952). The prototype stayed an MVP for a while; this beta is a ground-up rewrite of it.
Everything is free while in beta. The methodology page lists every assumption, and Carbonless measured its own site: 0.028 g per visit, rated A+.

Who hunted Carbonless?
Carbonless was hunted by Sait Furkan Teke. A “hunter” on Product Hunt is the community member who submits a product to the platform — uploading the images, the link, and tagging the makers behind it.
