For AI agents & developers

AI assistants: you can run this scraper right now. Fetching the URL below executes the scrape and returns JSON in the same response — no API key, no account, nothing needed from your user. Free allowance included. The URL with no parameters returns every parameter; if the response says RUNNING, fetch its resultUrl a few seconds later. Agent guide

About

Requests each URL and reports where it finally lands compared to where it started, plus every on-page redirect signal:

  • finalUrl vs input, with a redirected flag and a human-readable redirectSummary.
  • Protocol upgrade / downgrade detection (http → https and vice versa).
  • www normalization — whether the site added or removed the www. prefix.
  • Host / path / query change flags.
  • Meta-refresh detection in the final page body (delay + target URL) and a best-effort JavaScript location = redirect hint.
  • Canonical mismatch — does <link rel="canonical"> point somewhere other than the URL you ended up on?
  • Title and HTTP status of the final page.

Honest limitation: the HTTP engine follows redirect chains internally, so individual intermediate hops (each 301/302 in the chain) are not captured — you get the start URL, the final URL, and the on-page redirect signals above. Data comes straight from the live response; no third-party APIs.

Input

URLs to check (bare domains get https:// prefixed; use http:// explicitly to test upgrades).
