It crawls millions of URLs with JavaScript rendering, ingests server logs to show how Googlebot, Bingbot and AI bots visit the site, and cross-references both with Search Console, analytics and backlink data. Guided reports called Lenses cover AI search citations and content quality. Plans are sold after a demo and come with a monthly crawl quota. - **Category:** Technical SEO & Site Audits - **Made by:** Oncrawl - **Website:** https://www.oncrawl.com - **Runs on:** Web - **Who should skip it:** Not for you if you want a price before a demo, as none is published. - **Facts last checked:** Oct 23, 2026 ## Pricing Oncrawl's current pricing could not be confirmed from its own site. ## Key features - **Crawler:** Crawls millions of URLs with JavaScript rendering, custom extraction, scheduled crawls, crawl-over-crawl comparison and alerts on regressions. - **Log Analyzer:** Ingests server logs from Cloudflare, AWS, Google Cloud, Azure or uploaded files, unsampled, to show how search and AI bots crawl each page. - **AI Search Lens:** Uses log data to count visits from the AI user bots of ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, Mistral and Gemini, and links them to depth, speed and other crawl metrics. - **Content Lens:** Uses AI to assess the quality and SEO readiness of content across a whole site, with prioritized recommendations. - **Ranking and traffic data:** Connects Search Console, GA4, Adobe Analytics, Piano and Majestic, and keeps Search Console history beyond Google's own retention limit. - **API, OQL and MCP:** A REST API and the Oncrawl Query Language export data and trigger crawls; an MCP server lets ChatGPT, Claude or Cursor query it. ## Good for - SEO teams on e-commerce, media and listing sites with millions of pages - Teams that want crawl data and server logs analyzed together - Agencies running technical audits on large client sites ## Worth knowing - No prices are published; plans are sold after a demo, and no free trial is offered on the site. - Each plan has a monthly crawl quota in tokens: 1 per URL crawled, 3 with JavaScript rendering, 5 with Core Web Vitals or accessibility audits. - URLs fetched still use tokens even if the crawl is deleted afterwards. - Advanced crawl settings need the domain to be verified as yours. ## ToolGPA grades **GPA: 2.0 out of 4**, graded Oct 23, 2026. Oncrawl crawls millions of URLs with JavaScript rendering and reads your server logs, so you see how Googlebot and AI bots move through a large site next to your Search Console data. There's no price on the site and no free trial. Every plan runs on a monthly token quota, and JavaScript rendering costs 3 tokens a URL. - **Value for money: C.** No price is published. Plans are sold after a demo, so you only learn the cost on a sales call. Each plan carries a monthly crawl quota in tokens, and fetched URLs still use tokens even if you delete the crawl. - **Free plan and trial: F.** Nothing free on record: no free plan, and the site offers no free trial. You start with a demo. - **Features: B.** A JavaScript crawler with custom extraction and crawl comparison, unsampled log analysis from Cloudflare, AWS, Google Cloud or Azure, AI Search and Content Lenses, and Search Console, GA4 and Majestic data side by side. The listing shows no gap in the core job. - **Ease of use: C.** No rating on record. There are logs to connect, tokens to budget (1 per URL, 3 with JavaScript, 5 with Core Web Vitals) and a domain to verify before the advanced crawl settings open up. - **Platforms and integrations: B.** Web only. It connects to Search Console, Google Analytics, Adobe Analytics, Piano, Majestic, Cloudflare, Looker Studio and Dataiku, with a REST API, its own query language and an MCP server.

The category's chart of price against score: https://toolgpa.com/charts/technical-seo ## Keep it, or make your own? **Keep it.** The plain part of Oncrawl you could make: internal linking. What surrounds it you could not. The 6 things listed below take a company, not a weekend. That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 64 of the 83 other technical SEO tools grade higher. - You could make: Internal linking: an app builder makes this well. - You could not: A crawler that checks every page of a site. - You could not: Millions of server log lines read to see what search bots crawl. - You could not: The same prompts asked of ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini and Google's AI answers every day, and the answers kept. - You could not: Connections that pull numbers from dozens of other services. - You could not: It plugs into other products, Google Search Console, Google Analytics and Adobe Analytics among them, and has an API. - You could not: The depth: we grade its features B, which means it covers the whole job.
