Show HN: How attractive is your website? Check using Visual Mind AI
- disillusioned 6y agoHeh. It scored the CloudFlare DDoS protection page that it hit before my site as 26, so I've got that going for me, which is nice.
- jsemrau 6y agoNice, I got a 26 for my test page as well. It's on the same level as google.com.
- refactor_master 6y agoIt assigns itself the same mediocre score of 60 as it does for Apple.com?
- Silhouette 6y agoInteresting idea, but it says the first site I tried doesn't exist, so apparently there are some problems at the moment. Edit: Actually, all of the small/personal sites I've tried are failing, though a couple of big names worked. Is this a spoof?
- zwarag 6y agoMine worked fine and it is a small personal website.
- myraahio 6y agoHi can u pls let me know which website you tried ?
- a_square_peg 6y agoMine doesn't work either - https://oikolab.com https://oikolab.com.
- myraahio 6y agoMust have something went wrong .. when i ran your site i got this: https://myraah.io/index.php/visualmind/report/aHR0cDovL29pa29sYWIuY29t https://myraah.io/index.php/visualmind/report/aHR0cDovL29pa2...
- a_square_peg 6y agoInteresting, it works now. Thanks for looking into it. Really interesting tool!
- forgot_user1234 6y agoit gave my website 80. ️
- Zealotux 6y agoMay I ask what's your website?
- Zealotux 6y agoI achieved 60 (72% of users will like it) with my side-project[1] which is mostly an artwork, I believe its colorfulness helped the score a lot. I'd love for the algorithm to give me clear indications on what it believes I should improve, e.g. make this button wider, make the image bigger.

- myraahio 6y agoMany thanks for your feedback. We will work on that. Very useful insight.
- deleted 6y ago[deleted]
- sillysaurusx 6y agoAmusingly, from the comments here, it seems like everyone wants some kind of "HotOrNot" service for websites. Crowdsource the ratings! Then you can drop the "A" from "AI" :)
- insickness 6y agoA HotOrNot service for websites is exactly what this AI is claiming to replicate. It's claiming to predict how users will like your website.
- bochoh 6y agoI achieved a 84 (96% of users will like it) with my side project [1]. [1]https://smallsms.app https://smallsms.app
- _def 6y ago"Your website is visually GOOD" Well thank you dear AI!
- JPLeRouzic 6y agoVisual Mind summary report for http://news.ycombinator.com http://news.ycombinator.com 56% of users are expected to like your site
- mellosouls 6y agoAlso: Overall your site has good layout and visuals. You can further improve your score by using more vibrant images.
- mstipetic 6y agoI'm getting visually stunning for https://msb.com https://msb.com but I'm confused does it look only above the fold or the whole site? The screenshots only seem to show the top of the website
- deleted 6y ago[deleted]
- amitheonlyone 6y agoI got score 42 and 60 on visual appearance. My site is just a black page with a content editable paragraph. With only two likes of text, which looks something like Notes -------------------------------- Wtire your notes here
- merelysounds 6y agoThe results under "Here are few websites with similar visual scores as yours" were especially amusing for my site. I've received a score of 26 and the similar websites were: - Generic unstyled XML Access Denied document. - Google account log in page. - Generic unstyled "Your request has been blocked" text. - "Please verify you're a human" HTML error message. - Random JSON error message. I entered my personal website, https://merely.xyz https://merely.xyz . That website is served with a single request; perhaps it's been classified as an error page because of that?
- gildas 6y agoI tested https://gildas-lormeau.github.io/ https://gildas-lormeau.github.io/ (score 56) which is also a single request website. Almost all the websites with similar visual scores are okay for me.
- kome 6y agoi absolutely love your website.
- furyofantares 6y agoI also got a 26 for a site I entered. It was a bit confusing because 26 happens to be a fixed point, the site gives you a score (26% of users will like your site) and also ranks you among all the sites people have entered (you scored higher than 26% of all sites entered).
- atxbcp 6y agoDoesn't work on my website: "The URL provided is not correct"
- heikkilevanto 6y agoMy default Apache 404 page got a 38% of users will like it, 26 points for visually average, 20 for visual and 30 for clarity. After a few different URLs, my fail2ban kicked in, and the site complained about the URL being invalid. Fair enough.
- kn100 6y agoHilariously my blog (kn100.me) also got 38 percent and the site provides screenshots of other sites with similar scores, which were all 404/500 error pages... I thought my blog looked nice :(
- CapriciousCptl 6y agoUsing my somewhat powerful but also flawed neuro net trained on over 20 years of intensive web usage gives your blog design a thumbs up. One suggestion is adding padding-top: 1em to the "Posts" heading to make it more clearly separated from the quick summary above it and more clearly related to the content below it.
- pawnednow 6y agomy site https://hackerspad.net https://hackerspad.net scored a 26 while the tool itself scored a 60. Furthermore, for both scores it says and I quote You can further improve it by using better images and considering little denser layout. So as far as I think, we all have been had by this well designed funnel.
- lionkor 6y agoits definitely just a handful of scores and a handful of comments that get picked rather randomly. Just count the amount of "72%" posts in the comments here
- eruci 6y ago68% of users are expected to like https://geocode.xyz https://geocode.xyz Here are few websites with similar visual scores as yours Facebook.com Vogue.com Microsoft.com ... I think I'm in good company. While my personal blog https://eruci.com https://eruci.com is really ugly: "38% of users are expected to like your site" Same as "Google.com"

- doomlaser 6y ago> Your site is visually VERY GOOD > Your website is better than 72% of millions+ websites analysed by Visual MIND AI for: http://doomlaser.com http://doomlaser.com What's it actually doing under the hood? Just taking a screen grab of the first few hundred vertical pixels x the full width? What's the actual resolution that it's grabbing, and how does the algorithm work and come up with scores? Is the system backed by some sort of data from a representative group of users?
- myraahio 6y agoIndividual metrics 60/60 means u have fine balance...Algo keeps on refining as it processes more data..scores are just indicative not to taken as absolute basis. Thanks for trying.

- JohnStrangeII 6y agoI'm not very convinced of this AI. I got 96% for http://peppermind.com http://peppermind.com and only 68% for https://talumriel.de https://talumriel.de - I'm almost certain that most users would prefer talumriel, and both scores them seem overrated to me. I mean, I really have no clue about design...
- myraahio 6y agoThanks for this really. I looked it and trust me AI has got this completely wrong ..we will include this as exception when we train again.. thanks for trying..
- coddle-hark 6y agoWait, how do you know it got it completely wrong?
- KaoruAoiShiho 6y agotalumriel is unreadable for me because of overlong text width. Dunno maybe it's a factor, but overall it does look cleaner.
- hutattedonmyarm 6y agoMine is supposed to be good looking (score 90), but too complex (score 20). It’s a simple content in the middle + sidebar layouts. Indeed, very complex.

- can16358p 6y agoAll I'm getting a generic info page without scores, and when I click the button to show my score, it shows "Error posting feed", taking me to the initial page. Is the app broken, or am I missing a catch?
- myraahio 6y agoPls try again. Sometimes when the model is not able to predict within certain time it gives that error. Appreciate for highlighting this. We are fixing it.
- saagarjha 6y agoSadly the URL field didn’t turn off corrections, so typing my own domain (my name, lowercase, concatenated) was a bit of a challenge on my iPad…
- myraahio 6y agoThanks for the feedback. Will improve.
- godmode2019 6y agoHigh scores for my companies website https://thewolf.co.nz https://thewolf.co.nz Do I wonder how accurate this could be and what the training data is.
- LordAtlas 6y agoSorry, this seems like just a random number generator to me.
- hijklmno 6y agoWell Google got only 38% and they are widely successful. So I guess this is all vanity.
- myraahio 6y agoThis algo only rates sites on how good visuals are not on utility. Google is a site where you go primarily for utility but ALGo says if you make your site like google only 38% of people are expected to like it.
- MichaelZuo 6y agoThe categorization might need some calibration. I got “ Your website is better than 72% of millions+ websites analysed by Visual MIND AI” which implies above average. Though it also spits out “your site is VERY GOOD”. Doesn’t quite gel with a 72th percentile score.
- myraahio 6y agoyes u are right and thanks for the feedback. It's hard to say if you score is 72 out of 100 is it good very good or excellent.. we are just following what happens in the exam so 70% is good enough..not to be taken literally...moral of the story if score is above 60% the site is good...not to be taken as negative...
- social_quotient 6y agoI guess this sort of depends on the sample set. If it was fed all webby award winners and sites from dribbble then scoring a 51 would be somewhat amazing. An exam has an absolute range given an absolute understood input. I suppose the weird thing here is that we don’t know the inputs. If mainly HN and UX conscious forms have been using the system then 51 is also good. I don’t have an answer here but it got me thinking. Thanks for this demo! My company site scored a 72 and I might be happy about that.

- jcims 6y agoGood ol' metadata strikes again. I wish AWS would make a virtual block device for accessing this content instead of network (at least as an option). Much easier to protect at the OS level. The v2 service helps with this but it doesn't beat awareness of the issue.

- mikro2nd 6y agoComplete nonsense in the absence of any sense of why a site is designed the way it is. Is it a product brochure? Is it something functional (e.g. a search engine)? Does it target the general public? Or (say) highbrow art appreciators? Or tech geeks? In each case the aesthetic might be deliberately designed to attract/repel according to target audience. There is/can be no generic "attractive".
- myraahio 6y agoHi Thanks for trying. yes context is very important and we will incorporate in the next version.
- donatj 6y agoI think this thing is just trained to like large hero images. Tried some of the most beautiful sites I know and got scores in the 10s and 20s, presumably from the presence of text. Then I tried a number of sites with worthless huge hero images and got scores in the 80s. I mean like all ai, take this with a grain of salt, but I think there is an obvious bias in this to the 'giant hero image that goes all the way to the fold' design that a lot of low effort start-up websites use.
- myraahio 6y agoHi, Thanks for your feedback you are right. Currently algo evaluate how a user will feel...when they look at your site above the fold...it's like tinder you just look at the pic and decide to swap right or left.. this is based on : Users make lasting judgments about a website’s appeal within a split second. This first impression is influential enough to later affect their opinions of a site’s usability and trustworthiness...of course lot of areas we can improve...hope u enjoyed..
- Aeolun 6y agoBut do users really enjoy full size hero images?
- myraahio 6y agoThat's the reason why program says it's good..
- KaoruAoiShiho 6y agoIs it an actual AI though, trained through objective data or some kind of human programmed analysis?
- myraahio 6y agoIt's a deep learning model..hence sometimes illogical as well :). Thanks for trying...it will learn and improve over time...
- andersco 6y agoBeauty is in the eye of the beholder as they say. One big missing piece here is context. Attractive to whom? And in what context? My site is all about minimalism - https://www.anders.co/ https://www.anders.co/ - it got an average score. And I guess that is fair. It was also compared to google.com, which I would say is anything but average.

- loph 6y ago"The URL provided is not correct" -- funny, it seems to work in a web browser.
- forgotmypw17 6y agoI gave my website without the login credentials and got 38% for the 401 page. Then I added the credentials and got the same exact percentage. I know the creds worked, because the screenshot changed. I'm not going to say this assessment site is completely useless, because the colorized screenshots at the bottom are pretty cool and give me more theme ideas, but other than that... And I can't even save the images, because they are just all the same screenshot, base64-embedded in the HTML and then altered with JavaScript-based filters! What is that!?
- myraahio 6y agoScore is really base don the screenshot generated. If something is hidden behind the login system can't read it so will get error. We may in future have a functionality to upload ur own screenshot instead of taking it by machine. Thanks for the feedback.

- anmolparashar 6y ago> Visual Mind summary report for http://usecastup.com http://usecastup.com - 72% of users are expected to like your site. Your site is visually awesome. You can further improve it by using better images and considering little denser layout. Well, although I'm happy with the comment, that "72%" seems made up entirely.
- modinfo 6y agoMost of the page contains punctuation errors, even in the title. Remove the space before the question mark. In English, it is always an error. There should be no space between a sentence and its ending punctuation, whether that's a period, a question mark, or an exclamation mark. There should also be no space before a colon, semicolon, or comma.
- myraahio 6y agoThanks for the input..will change..
- nf__85 6y ago“You can improve visual score by using better images and improving site layout to make it little more denser.” These suggestions need to be improved if they are going to be the output of this tool. Better images? Define better. It doesn’t ask what the images or site are trying to achieve. Maybe for their intended purpose these images are the best. And making it more dense? Again, why? If you’re going to give design feedback it might be valuable to consider what valuable design feedback looks like. There are books on this.
- myraahio 6y agoAgree that recco are not that upto the mark at the moment as it is just the first version...hence we called it tips. I appreaciate your feedback and thanks for trying ..
- jjeaff 6y agoIf it's like a lot of trained AI, there may be no way of knowing why some images are better than others. Usually, you just know that I'm the training data, more sites with images like yours were more or less popular.

- jcims 6y agoGetting lots of good feedback, I think it's a fun idea and maybe with some effort it will turn into a winner for you. Good luck!
- bArray 6y ago@myraahio Given how quickly your site runs, I'm not entirely sure it runs a neural network - seems more like some weighted analysis based on some defined measures on simple algorithms? I'll take a wild stab and guess that you're doing some analysis, some manual labeling and k-means clustering? I would really consider running a light weight network over a small image (down-scaled to something like 320x200), if you're only binning classes then you should be able to get it to <1ms on a low-power CPU. Given how much web pages vary, you'll likely need upwards of 10k training images. Consider having some feature on your site to allow users to help rate pages (with moderation oversight). It's a good start anyway! I look forward to seeing this in the future! Edit: Also consider some expansion opportunities - rating screenshots of software interfaces, mobile phone apps, etc, etc.
- myraahio 6y ago@bArray really appreciate your feedback. Especially expansion opportunity. DL model is trained on the GPU - heavy AWS instance..end point rests on smaller instance. Sometimes it gives faster results when you run a URL which it has already processed. It will happen in case of famous sites. For new sites it need to process the info so it takes about 10 seconds to create report.
- lionkor 6y agoI dont want to sound like a hater here, but why is it that so many people in this thread claim a 72% score? This whole thing seems to me like it isn't any AI by the common understanding, but just a few hardcoded scores and criteria. Now, thats probably wrong, and the AI is super neat, but I think it doesn't look very good when it does that. I dont think the chances are high that so many different websites all score exactly 72%. Not 71, not 73, 72. Its weird. Now the whole site looks nice and all, I saw the papers referenced, too. But again, when I read that it's "97% accurate", I wonder how that is even measured? I understand that there are measures of how easy to use a site is, etc. So I wonder what cases those 3% were, where your AI was "wrong"? Did you hand-review them, or what?
- micael_dias 6y agoI also got 72 for mine. 90/60 in the numbers below. Edit: 84% for percentage of people who'd like the website
- condercet 6y agoAnother 72% here.
- fallat 6y ago38% as well.
- myraahio 6y agoThanks for trying out. yes you are right. Tips are not upto the mark. Our algo tries to put a site in 8 buckets -b,..+A and provides tips. So it's not that accurate when evaluating 50% versus 53% but mostly accurate with difference of over 10%.. so 50% won't be same as 60% for example.. of course it is based on limited amount of data we had to guess it..point taken.. we really appreciate your feedback and will incorporate.. cool.
- narrationbox 6y agoIt is actually not too bad: https://myraah.io/index.php/visualmind/report/aHR0cDovL05hcnJhdGlvbmJveC5jb20= https://myraah.io/index.php/visualmind/report/aHR0cDovL05hcn...

I usually visit page performance sites to get some tips on things to improve on the performance, I think that this is a great idea to have a score on the appearance as well. I got "You can further improve it by using better images and considering little denser layout." as a tip to improve, it would be great if there could be more details on the feedback.
- myraahio 6y agoAppreciate u tried. Will get there..
- condercet 6y agoIt seems like for this to be successful you'd want access to engagement/conversion data to train your model on. Google / Facebook would be positioned to execute on that, others less so.
- mtm7 6y agoTried it on my personal site, which I’ve received a lot of compliments on. Input: https://mtm.dev https://mtm.dev Output: 38% of users are expected to like your site
- mimixco 6y agoMine[0] scored 96%, so I'm pretty stoked, but I do have a background in visual design so maybe their AI looks at some of those standard conventions. [0]http://mimix.io http://mimix.io
- bobbydreamer 6y agowww.bobbydreamer.com is 38%
- systematical 6y agohttps://www.spacejam.com/ https://www.spacejam.com/ scores 72% of users liking that site. Okay. I guess it takes nastolgia into account... I wonder how my geocities page from elementary school ranks?
- techbio 6y agoThe score to aim for appears to be 38%. https://techbio.org https://techbio.org is reasonably close, with 44%
- amelius 6y agoSince this is ML-based, I'm getting the feeling that the real question this answers is: how average is your website?
- olivierduval 6y agoWhy do people forget that AI is just a buzzword for some kind of pattern matching ? So it's obviously NOT able to evaluate "creative" capabilites because... well... creativity is about being DIFFERENT and not the same. Moreover, a site like Facebook is attractive NOT because of its design (mainly) but because of the service it provides. So a Facebook designed clone will have no interest, even if it looks like Facebook. To me, it looks like it's just the wrong tool for the problem to be solved
- myraahio 6y agoWhen u meet someone all the time u start liking it. Our tool helps u get an average output that if u see someone for the very first time how much attractive u will find them. of course AI is not absolute but gives u some data points to u to decide. Thanks for your feedback.
- olivierduval 6y agoActually, it will give some feedback... but will it give any VALUABLE feedback ? I mean: how is it better than any website scoring by Google, Yahoo and so ? How is "AI" better than some UI/UX human research and thinking ? It looks like everybody is more or more tired of all the websites looking the same because of the "bootstrap"/"material" design. Your tool will only score any website against the tiring majority, so in fact I'm really not sure that it's such a good idea. I think that a better - but really far more difficult - task would be to different and usable. But you can't achieve this only with "AI" on website: you need to add also some kind of graphic art knowledge and UX principles. Example: instead of considering a color scheme against what is used all over the place (hint: default bootstrap or default material), you should check color scheme against paintings or photographies, and score better what is "beautiful" AND original. Maybe you could add for example some link to kulers and that kind or color scheme design tool. THAT would make it a VALUABLE tool, because it would help the website to stand out and be usable... Just my 2 cents
- hansvm 6y ago> So it's obviously NOT able to evaluate "creative" capabilites because... well... creativity is about being DIFFERENT and not the same. Neural nets can approximate any function as accurately as you'd like. Blindly shoving whole sites prelabled by their creativity into a convnet seems likely to end poorly, but that doesn't mean a better training method can't be applied which more faithfully represents the problem domain (no clue what the inside of this particular tool looks like, just commenting on the general infeasibility claim). > So a Facebook designed clone will have no interest, even if it looks like Facebook. Doesn't this site just claim that appearances also matter, not that a polished turd will be successful?

- different_sort 6y agoThis is neat, thank you for sharing. I'm using the publii default theme on my website and it ranks quite high. It said to get an even higher ranking I should consider denser content, which makes sense given I just moved to publii and it's a bit light right now.
- tpetry 6y agoHow do you calculate the clarity score?
- quickthrower2 6y agoI love the idea but it is of limited use to me right now: How do I know this metric is any good? What does “attractiveness” mean and what desired outcomes does it correlate to? For example HN is ugly (sorry for the candor!) but it’s a plus - it’s a statement about what you write being most important and also by not changing the ui it’s lovely to use. Now compare that to Reddit which might come though as a prettier site at first glance but bitching about the Reddit ui and then someone mentioning old.reddit and friends is a trope: lots of people hate the Reddit ui. So on some metric that matters to me HN wins. Finally - if I score X how do I actually improve the score?
- wraptile 6y agoVery cool idea but it just does not seem to work just yet. My blog got 26 which I think looks quite nice (http://granitosaurus.rocks http://granitosaurus.rocks) but some random color rainbow websites score double that (like already pointed out: http://dokimos.org/ajff http://dokimos.org/ajff) Are there any visual design scoring systems that somewhat work?
