Free Link Safety Checker

Inspect a public URL and its redirects without opening the page or executing scripts.

Checks performed

HTTPS, response status, redirect behavior, destination changes, hostname structure, Punycode, IP-based links, and encoded control characters.

Privacy and safety

Only headers are requested. Private networks are blocked at every hop, and page scripts are never executed.

Check a link before opening it

Review redirects, HTTPS, destination changes, hostname signals, and response status without executing the destination’s scripts.

Best practices and limitations

  • Treat the result as a risk indicator, not a guarantee.
  • Private networks and unsafe redirect targets are blocked.

Frequently asked questions

Does a low-risk result guarantee safety?

No. Websites can change, and automated checks cannot detect every threat.

Do you store the submitted URL in analytics?

No sensitive submitted URL is included in tool usage or CTA analytics events.

Tool usage analytics record only the tool name and action—not the URL or text you submit.
