Free tools built for
the modern web.
A growing toolkit of browser-based SEO, developer, and AI search tools. No account needed. No data sold. Every tool is free.
Why we built this
Most SEO platforms charge £100–£500 per month for access to data that is already in your own Google Search Console account. We built Searchlight to surface that data directly: no third-party database, no estimated traffic, no sampling.
The standalone tools grew from the same frustration: common developer and productivity tasks require either a paid SaaS subscription or uploading sensitive data to an unknown server. We build these tools to run entirely in your browser so your files never leave your device.
Built on four commitments
These are not policies subject to revision. They are the constraints we built around from day one.
Browser-first by design
Most tools run entirely in your browser using Web APIs and WebAssembly. Your images, PDFs, and data never leave your device: no server processing, no file retention.
Read-only Google OAuth
GSC tools request read-only access via OAuth 2.0. We can read your performance data, not write to it. Raw query data is never stored beyond your current session.
No data reselling, ever
We do not sell, share, or monetise user data in any form. Searchlight is funded by users who find it valuable enough to support directly, not by advertising or data brokerage.
No dark patterns
No infinite free trials that become paid. No confusing pricing. No email harvesting. Every tool is genuinely free: no paywalls, no feature gating, no tricks.
How the GSC tools work
The GSC-connected tools connect to Google Search Console via read-only OAuth 2.0. We request the minimum scope needed and never store raw query-level data.
Built by
Over a decade of experience in technical SEO, content strategy, and developer tooling. Built Searchlight to give SEO professionals and developers direct access to their own data, without paying for expensive platforms that only surface information Google already gives you for free.
