## Boosting workflows with custom guidelines

Once created, these guidelines can be used while evaluating websites, ensuring they meet the specific standards set out by the guidelines.

* Also, custom guidelines enable new or less experienced colleagues to:
  * evaluate websites effectively,
  * finding bugs,
  * misalignments, and other issues.
* This feature is especially useful for companies with **specific guidelines** for how their corporate websites should look and function.
* A team can create **their own evaluation system or company-wide principles.** This helps ensure **thorough adherence to organizational standards**, avoiding bugs, misalignments, and other issues.
