IndieRedirect, a redirect-chain x-ray

A free, private utility that follows a public URL's HTTP redirects and shows each hop, status code, and final destination.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-04 issue.

Field notes

The tool sends a real GET request for a public URL and exposes the route one response at a time, including status codes, hosts, protocol changes, and the final destination. It limits a trace to five redirects and warns after the third. The page cites RFC 9110 for its status explanations and says checks are not added to public inventory or retained as lookup history.
