Tech stack lookup

How to check what a website is built with.

Enter any domain in the search box at the top of this page to see its tech stack. It's free and you don't need an account.

Check a website's tech stack in three steps

Type a domain into the search box above and pick it from the list. The lookup reads our stored crawl first. If we haven't crawled that domain yet, a live scan renders the page in a browser while you wait.

  1. Type a domain such as stripe.com. A full URL works too; the path is ignored.
  2. Read the result. Each technology is listed with its category and the date we first detected it, main domain first, then any subdomains we've seen.
  3. Download the list as CSV, or open a technology to see which other companies use it.

What a tech stack checker detects

A tech stack checker finds the software a website runs on and the services it sends data to. We track 40,000+ technologies. These are the categories people look up most:

How website technology detection works

Most technologies leave a fingerprint in the page code, the HTTP response or the domain's DNS records. A checker matches those fingerprints against a library of known patterns.

Page code carries the most. WordPress sites load files from /wp-content/, Next.js apps from /_next/static/, and many site builders name themselves in a generator meta tag. Response headers show the server side: Cloudflare adds a cf-ray header to every response, and x-powered-by often names the framework or PHP version.

DNS records show what the page doesn't. MX records name the email provider (Microsoft 365 mail routes through mail.protection.outlook.com), and TXT records list services that verified the domain. A TXT record can outlive the subscription, so we treat it as a past sign-up, not a live install.

Certificate transparency logs, the public record of every TLS certificate issued, list a domain's subdomains. That's how we find a help center, status page or shop running on different software from the main site. The methodology page covers the rest.

Why a browser extension misses part of the stack

A browser extension only sees what loads in your browser on the page you have open. It can't read DNS records, and it doesn't know about subdomains you haven't visited.

We crawl 29.9M live business domains with a real browser and add DNS and certificate data on top. Some software stays invisible to every website checker, ours included: internal tools with no public footprint, such as an ERP or a data warehouse.

How to check a website's technology manually

You can spot the main platforms yourself with the page source and one terminal command.

  1. Open the page source (Ctrl+U on Windows, Cmd+Option+U on a Mac) and search it for wp-content, cdn.shopify.com, _next or generator.
  2. Open DevTools, reload with the Network tab open, click the first request and read the server and x-powered-by response headers.
  3. Run dig MX example.com (or nslookup -type=mx example.com on Windows) to see who handles the domain's email.

That works for one site at a time. To list every company that uses a technology, start from the technology directory. For thousands of domains, use bulk enrichment or the technographic data API.

“What I like most is how specific the targeting gets. For our sales team at UserGuiding, knowing exactly which tools a prospect is using really changes how we approach outreach. Coverage is wider than Wappalyzer, especially for backend tools like n8n, Airtable or databases that other tools can't see from the frontend. Big plus: verified contact emails come included in the Pro plan, where most alternatives charge 4-5x more to bundle them.”

“Technologychecker’s tech stack detection system is very precise, and it feels like it can capture signals earlier than other tech detection software. Before fully committing to TechnologyChecker, we ran a three-month test with several other tools in the same space, and it performed noticeably better in signal coverage and at identifying tech stack signals.”

Frequently
asked questions.

What is TechnologyChecker.io?

TechnologyChecker.io is a technology intelligence platform built for B2B sales, GTM, and market analysis teams. We provide real-time subscriber and churn signals, 20-year historical data for ICP analysis (recent years from our own crawls, prior years rebuilt from public web archives — see the methodology page), and verified decision-maker contacts across 40,000+ technologies and 29.9M live business domains — including backend and standalone platforms that frontend-only tools miss.

How does TechnologyChecker work?

Our platform uses multiple detection methods including HTTP header analysis, JavaScript fingerprinting, HTML parsing, and DNS lookups to accurately identify technologies used by any website.

Is the website technology checker free?

Yes. Looking up a domain in the search box on the homepage is free and doesn't need an account. The Free plan adds 100 credits a month with no credit card, for exports and API calls, and the Chrome extension is free to install. Paid plans start at $89 a month for 10,000 credits.

What makes TechnologyChecker different from Wappalyzer?

Seven key differences: (1) Full-stack detection — we detect backend tools like n8n, databases, and standalone platforms like Airtable that Wappalyzer can't see. (2) 40,000+ technologies vs ~8,000. (3) Real-time subscriber & churn signals — know the moment companies adopt or drop any technology. (4) Verified contacts included at $89/month — Wappalyzer requires their $450/month plan. (5) Company + contact data per technology with custom audience exports. (6) 20-year historical data for ICP analysis and churn prediction (recent years from our own crawls, prior years rebuilt year-by-year from public web archives like Common Crawl — methodology is published). (7) Enterprise API, bulk enrichment, and CRM automation — not just a browser extension.

How accurate is your technology detection?

We achieve high accuracy through multi-signal detection combining headless JavaScript rendering, HTTP header analysis, DNS/TLS fingerprinting, library signatures, and infrastructure probing. Our system detects 40,000+ technologies including backend tools and standalone SaaS products. Every detection includes a confidence score, and we continuously validate results across 29.9M live business domains.

What types of technologies can you detect?

We detect 40,000+ technologies including CMS platforms, ecommerce solutions, analytics tools, marketing automation, CDNs, payment processors, frameworks, programming languages, and hosting providers.

Do you have historical data?

Yes — our historical technology timelines reach back roughly 20 years. The recent ~2 years come from our own snapshotted crawls; the prior ~18 years are rebuilt by analyzing petabytes of Common Crawl archives (back to 2008), Internet Archive / Wayback Machine snapshots for earlier coverage, and data from third-party archive partners. We re-run our current detection fingerprints against those records year-by-year, so you get adoption and churn data per domain across the full timeline — not a smoothed average. Methodology is on our /methodology page.

Do you comply with GDPR and privacy regulations?

Absolutely. We only analyze publicly accessible website data and signatures. We never access private information and maintain full compliance with GDPR, CCPA, and other privacy regulations.

How can sales teams use TechnologyChecker.io?

Sales teams use our platform to identify prospects using specific technologies, track competitor customers, receive alerts when companies switch tools, and access verified contact data for outreach.

What about marketing and growth teams?

Marketing teams leverage TechnologyChecker for competitive analysis, market sizing, identifying integration partners, tracking industry adoption trends, and building targeted prospect lists.

Where does your data come from?

Five primary channels: live web crawling with real browser rendering across 29.9M live business domains, passive DNS monitoring that detects infrastructure changes within 15 minutes, TLS certificate transparency logs, historical Common Crawl archives going back to 2008, and third-party data partners. High-traffic domains refresh every 24–72 hours. Every detection carries a confidence score so you know exactly how reliable each signal is.

What about private or internal tools?

We detect technologies through public-facing signals including DNS records, HTTP headers, TLS certificates, API fingerprints, and code signatures. While purely internal tools with no external-facing components aren't detectable, we identify many backend and standalone platforms — like n8n, Airtable, and databases — through their public infrastructure signatures.
