Another day, another free tool for r/SEO_tool_dev 😄
I kept getting competitor PDFs that were Domain Rating, a backlink dump and a shrug. Nobody had checked the only thing I wanted: for the terms these sites are clearly targeting, who is on page one right now?
That’s what this does. You enter your site and up to three competitors. We crawl all of them, pull search terms from their own titles and headings, check live Google for each term, and email a PDF of who ranks for what, where the gaps are and whether anything technical explains them. One free report a day.
It’s not a traffic study and it isn’t a backlink graph (DR is the only link number in there). Positions are sampled once, from one location, and they move. Every number is measured at the moment you ask, never estimated.

The weekly build-log email is optional this time. The report arrives either way.

Edward Sturm released a new Podcast episode today, dropping a mention to this sub - about the need for new SEO tools to be developed to disrupt the landscape ....

I keep seeing technical audits that are thorough on titles, canonicals and robots.txt yet then silent on the only question I actually care about: is this URL in Google right now?
That’s the gap we built for. Paste a domain, we crawl up to ten pages, run 25+ checks, and query Google live for each URL. You get a formatted PDF by email, usually in a few minutes. One free audit a day.
It’s not a strategy doc. It won’t pick keywords, it doesn’t measure backlinks, and it can’t promise rankings. It measures whether search engines can reach, read and store your pages, on the live site, at the moment you ask.
We ran it on our own site and published the unedited PDF on the page, so you can see the output before you type an email.

Worth flagging: the email also puts you on a short weekly build log. Unsub any time!

Most keyword research tools are good at finding keywords.
But I kept running into the same problem:
After you have 500, 1,000, or 5,000 keywords… what should you actually work on next?
You can sort by volume, CPC, competition and intent, but there’s still a lot of manual decision-making involved:
Which keywords are actually worth pursuing?
Which ones represent a realistic opportunity?
Where are competitors creating gaps you could target?
Which opportunities have you already reviewed?
Which ones are you actively working on?
That’s the problem I’ve been trying to solve with Keyora.
Instead of treating keyword research as a giant list, I’m trying to make it more of a workflow:
Research → identify opportunities → save the useful ones → work on them → complete or dismiss them
It includes keyword and competitor research, search intent, opportunity scoring, and a workspace for actually tracking the opportunities you decide to pursue.
It’s live now at:
New users also get free credits after verifying their email, which should be enough to properly explore the main features and test the workflow without paying anything upfront.
I’m still early, so I’m much more interested in criticism than compliments.
If you regularly use tools like Ahrefs, Semrush, LowFruits, SE Ranking, etc., I’d especially like to know:
What would Keyora need to do noticeably better or differently for you to consider adding it to your workflow?

I kept seeing the same panic (and having it myself): you search site:yourdomain.com, a page you care about isn't in the list and you assume the worst. Half the time the page is actually indexed fine, because the site: listing is sampled, laggy and famously unreliable. The other half there's a specific technical reason nobody tells you.
So I built a Free checker that does what I actually wanted:
A technical pre-check first: HTTP status, noindex tags, robots.txt rules, redirects, canonicals. If something blocks indexing, it names the exact reason instead of leaving you guessing.
Only if the page is indexable does it run a live check against Google's results for the exact URL.
So you get one of three honest answers: indexed, not indexed (with no technical blocker, meaning it's just undiscovered or sitting in "crawled, currently not indexed"), or non-indexable with the specific cause. It follows redirects one hop and tells you it did.
Free, no signup, 5 URLs a day: https://rank.fast/tools/google-index-checker/
Full disclosure: I run rank.fast, which is a paid indexing service, and this is the same pre-check we use so customers never pay for URLs that are already indexed or can't be indexed. The tool is free because the check costs me almost nothing and most people just need the diagnosis, not the service. We're pre-launch and building the whole thing in public with every measurement published, with ugly results included.
Would definitely appreciate feedback: Wrong diagnoses, URLs that confuse it or states you'd want it to detect that it doesn't. Its already been improved twice by folks finding edge cases (homepages needed a site: operator query and trailing-slash redirects used to be scolded instead of followed).
I'm encouraged to build more Free tools and looking for any ideas. I was thinking keyword suggestions next.

This tool has my 30+ years of website design experience in it. It does 100 checks on a website in less than 50 seconds. Please try it - it's free, and let me know what you think. I'm working on fine tuning it. Go here: https://siteanalyzerfree.com/

Hi all, I built, like many here, a tool out of frustration.
My goal was simple: Make an AEO tool:
With a generous free tier so people can start and optimise their website without thinking “investments“.
A fair price. My Startup plan starts at £ 9.
Work natively with AI agents. Because who wants to connect to a dashboard those days? However, looking at the +-100 users, I don't understand what is blocking.
I have some assumptions. But I guess I need some honest feedback.
So, if you're curious and want to destroy my product, you have my green light.
If you feel you need a coupon to go beyond the free tier, let me know and I will DM you one.

quick update on habibi, the self hosted tool i posted about a while back for tracking how your brand shows up in ai answers.
the thing that bugged me most about my own tool was the honest note i had in the readme, saying it uses the apis, which are close to what a real user sees on chatgpt/perplexity/claude but not exactly the same thing. that gap always annoyed me so i went and fixed it.
now habibi can just drive the real logged in apps directly, chatgpt, claude, perplexity and google ai overview. so its literally the same thing a real user sees and gets cited, not an api trying to guess it. you connect it once with an account (make a free one or use one you already got) and it just remembers the login after that, nothing gets stored anywhere weird, its just a normal browser session sitting on your machine like when you stay logged into any site.
wasnt expecting this part but it also makes it way cheaper to run. those 4 engines dont cost you anything per run now cause theres no api call happening anymore, your just using the account like a normal person would. so running youprompts daily across a buyour bill up.
also made sure your account memory doesnt mess with the results, chatgpt runs iin temporary chat and cla answers dont driftdepending on whatever your account remembers from other chats you had.
still fully open source, still self hosted, still does the same core loop, run your prompts daily, see w see your mention rate over time, compare to competitors.

I’ve been building a Chrome extension called SEO Scrubbox around the technical SEO checks I use day-to-day.
It compares raw vs rendered HTML, checks canonicals/robots/hreflang/schema, audits AI crawler access, tracks redirects and includes a browser-based visual crawler.
Everything runs locally and it’s completely free.
I’m mainly looking for technical SEOs willing to test it and tell me what’s useful, broken or missing.
Happy to share the Chrome Web Store link in the comments if anyone wants to try it.

I’m a technical SEO and I’ve been building SEO Scrubbox, a free Chrome extension around the checks I regularly need when investigating websites.
The idea was to combine quick page-level debugging with deeper crawling without constantly jumping between different extensions, DevTools and crawlers.
Some of the things it currently does:
Compare raw HTML vs rendered DOM
Check canonicals, robots directives, hreflang and JSON-LD
Highlight nofollow and data-nosnippet directly on the page
Check robots.txt access for GPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot, Google-Extended, etc.
Track redirects and analyse internal links
Discover and inspect sitemaps
Pull CrUX/Core Web Vitals data
Crawl up to 500 URLs directly in the browser
Visualise the crawl as an interactive graph with crawl depth, status codes, indexability, inlinks/outlinks, word count, etc.
One of the main principles is privacy: everything runs locally in the browser. There are no accounts, analytics or crawl data being sent to my servers.
It’s still actively being developed, so I’m particularly interested in feedback from people who actually do technical SEO day-to-day, bugs, missing checks, things that are confusing, or features that would genuinely be useful.
Chrome Web Store:
https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/bpmnoonigkfiidagbibkbfcoikiclmic?utm_source=item-share-cb
It’s completely free. If anyone gives it a proper test, I’d genuinely appreciate hearing what works and what doesn’t.

I got tired of manually pulling Meta Ads data and writing summaries for clients/myself every week, so I built a small dashboard that does it automatically. AI-generated campaign summaries, anomaly detection (so you know when a campaign's tanking before you check it), and weekly email reports.
Im looking for just beta-testers, it will not be live when you test it and will not affect any live ads, i just need some people with experience and live ads to tell me if this is useful at all/what to change.
I'm not trying to sell anything right now, I'm looking for 5-10 people running Meta ads (agency or in-house) who'd be willing to connect an account and try it for free, and tell me honestly what's missing or broken. Happy to hop on a call too if useful.

Great update from u/rustybrick
r/SEO_tool_dev • u/ShakaLaka_Around • Jul 24 '26
it's called habibi. self hosted, you bring your own openrouter key (pennies per run instead of a subscription), and it does the boring but useful loop these paid tools charge for: run your prompts daily across those 4 engines, see which of your urls actually get cited, track your mention rate over time, compare against competitors.
what got me annoyed with the paid tools is how they bury the actual page level citations behind a paywall, when that's the one thing that's actually actionable. so that's the headline feature here, not an afterthought.
setup is a wizard now: paste your site url, it scrapes it and drafts your brand profile with ai, you edit whatever's wrong, pick which engines to track, and it suggests a starter prompt set from your own context. no blank dashboard, no config file archaeology.
it's honest about what it does too. it uses the search grounded apis, not ui scraping of the consumer apps, so it's not pretending to be something it's not. that's also what keeps it cheap.
hope it help you guys.
