# UX audit

> Audit a product's experience with captured evidence and AI-assisted analysis.

A UX audit should be backed by what users actually see, not memory or a stale PDF. BenchCanvas captures the full experience and helps you analyze and report on it.

## Workflow

<Steps>
  <Step title="Capture the product">
    [Capture](/capture/url-capture) the full flow, from landing to core features. Use [Deep exploration](/capture/options) for thorough coverage.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Map the journey">
    Review the connected flow on the [canvas](/canvas/overview). Spot dead ends, loops, and unnecessary steps in the [connections](/canvas/connections).
  </Step>

  <Step title="Run heuristic and accessibility checks">
    Generate [AI reports](/ai/insight-reports) such as the Nielsen heuristic evaluation and accessibility quick audit on key screens.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Annotate and report">
    Flag friction with [comments](/collaborate/comments), then [share a link](/share/share-links) or [export](/share/export) the audit.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Tips

* Use full-page [screenshots](/canvas/screenshots) so reports can evaluate content below the fold.
* Save AI reports as comments on screens so findings stay attached to the evidence.
* Audit your product next to a best-in-class competitor to show stakeholders what "good" looks like.
* After fixes ship, recapture and compare to verify your recommendations landed.
