Everything you need from a URL

One endpoint returns all metadata. No scraping, no browser, no headless Chrome.

🏷️ Open Graph

Title, description, image, type, site name, URL, and locale. The standard for link previews on Facebook, LinkedIn, Slack, and Discord.

🐦 Twitter Cards

Card type, title, description, image, site handle, and creator. Everything needed for Twitter/X link previews.

🎨 Favicons & Icons

All link icons including favicon, apple-touch-icon, and SVG icons with sizes and MIME types. Resolved to absolute URLs.

🛡️ SSRF Protected

Private IPs, localhost, and internal networks are blocked. Safe to use with user-submitted URLs in production.

🤖 MCP Ready

Ships with a Model Context Protocol server so AI agents (Claude, Cursor, Windsurf) can inspect URLs natively.

↩️ Follows Redirects

Automatically follows HTTP redirects and returns the final URL. 10-second timeout, reads only the first 100KB for speed.
