Render gap

In short

The content difference between a page's raw HTML and how it looks in the browser after JavaScript runs.

Example

A product description loaded only by JavaScript, so the page the bot sees has no product information.

Where you'll see it in AILens

The raw HTML versus render control (TEC-004) and the render gap section of the PDF report.

Many AI bots do not run JavaScript. If key information only appears after rendering, the page can look empty to them.
