Every hop, not just where it ends.
No curl loops and no header parsing. Each request follows the chain and returns every step as JSON.
The full chain
Every URL the request passes through, in order, from the one you send to the final destination.
data[].urlStatus at each hop
See whether each step is a 301, 302, 307 or 308, so you can spot temporary redirects that should be permanent.
data[].statusHeaders at each hop
Location, cache and security headers for every step, for debugging exactly how a redirect is set up.
data[].headersChains and loops
Long chains waste crawl budget and slow users down. Up to 10 redirects are traced, so loops and long chains show up.
up to 10 hopsHTTP to HTTPS checks
Confirm that http and www variants all land on the one canonical HTTPS URL you intend.
url: http://…From any country
Trace the chain through a proxy in another country to check geo-redirects send visitors to the right local site.
proxyCountry: aeCheck where each country gets sent.
Many sites redirect visitors to a local version by country. Add a country code and the trace runs through a proxy there, so you can confirm each market lands on the right site.

What people do with the Redirect Checker API.
Check redirects after a site migration
Run your old URLs through the checker after a migration to confirm each one lands on the right new page with a single 301.
- Final destination for every URL
- 301 vs 302 at each hop
- Spot chains to flatten
POST /redirectcheck
{
"url": "http://google.com"
}Your first redirect check, in a few lines.
# pip install geekflare-api
from geekflare_api.client import GeekflareClient
from geekflare_api.models import RedirectCheckDto
with GeekflareClient(api_key="<api-key>") as client:
result = client.redirect_check(
RedirectCheckDto(
url="https://example.com"
)
)
print(result)One API. Every stack.
The same key works from an agent, a workflow builder, an SDK or your own service. Pick the lane you already live in.
MCP server
One remote endpoint exposes Geekflare's tools to any MCP client. Your agent discovers them itself: no glue code, no per-tool wiring.

LLM-ready Markdown straight into a retrieval pipeline, with the boilerplate stripped so you spend context on content, not navigation.
Workflow builders
Run any endpoint as a step in a visual scenario. Useful when the person who needs the data does not write code.
SDKs & REST
First-party typed SDKs for Python and Node. Everything else talks plain REST, from any language.
