See what search bots see without JavaScript

Many crawlers, including AI crawlers, read only the HTML your server sends. Compare it with the page your visitors see.

    Run the comparison

    Go to Explore → SEO, open What search bots see without JavaScript and click Compare with and without JavaScript. EPIC fetches the page's raw HTML and compares it with the page after scripts run.

    Read the result

    You get the title, description, robots, canonical, headings, text, links and structured data side by side, each marked Same or different. Anything that only appears after JavaScript runs may be missed by crawlers that don't run it.

Good to know
  • The fetch uses your browser without your cookies, like a signed-out visitor.
