The promise

TechDash does your daily website checks for you.

Stop spending the start of every day poking through dashboards, spot-checking client sites, and wondering what changed overnight. TechDash keeps watch in the background and tells you when your attention is actually needed.

Delegate the checks

Website health monitoring without the daily ritual

Schedule checks every 15 minutes, hourly, daily, or weekly across the pages that matter.

Protect your focus

Spend more time on growth work

Let TechDash watch for regressions while you work on content, campaigns, migrations, technical fixes, and revenue-driving SEO.

Cut the cable

Reduce monthly tool costs and regain control

Buy desktop software once, monitor sites from your own machine, and keep your crawl data out of another hosted SaaS database.

Make it yours

Custom checks for the details only you know matter

Tell TechDash to alert you if a phrase disappears from a page, or if a word you never want published suddenly appears.

The problem

Most SEO disasters do not look like disasters at first.

A deployment changes a canonical. A template adds noindex. robots.txt blocks a directory. Product copy disappears. Structured data stops parsing. The site still loads. Then rankings start moving.

Critical

Noindex introduced

Catch page-level or header-level indexability changes before Google has to be the messenger.

Critical

Robots.txt blocking pages

Know when a robots.txt change blocks pages or directories you expected crawlers to reach.

Warning

Canonical changed

Spot canonical regressions that quietly point valuable pages somewhere unexpected.

Critical

Main content collapsed

Detect content loss, thin pages, and copy changes that make an important URL less useful.

Warning

Structured data broke

Find JSON-LD parsing failures, schema changes, and missing structured data fields.

Critical

HTTP, DNS, domain, and TLS problems

See failures that affect availability, redirects, certificates, domains, and crawl access.

The difference

Do not just get an alert. See what changed.

A normal monitor says something is wrong. TechDash gives you the affected URL, severity, highlighted before/after evidence, guidance on what to investigate, and a way to verify the fix.

01

Catch it

Scheduled checks run in the background and create incidents when important changes appear.

02

Understand it

Before/after evidence shows the actual change behind the alert.

03

Act on it

Use guidance, sharing, ignoring, and resolving tools to move incidents through the workflow.

04

Verify it

Run the check again after the fix so the page is not left on trust and hope.

Cut the monitoring-tool cable.

Reduce recurring website-monitoring costs while putting more of the crawl, schedule, and incident record back under your control.

The model

One desktop licence. Daily checks. No monthly subscription.

Most monitoring tools make every extra website, project, or URL another pricing decision. TechDash is desktop software: buy it once, run it yourself, and monitor as many sites and pages as your machine can comfortably handle.

  • Major client sites
  • Sites that deploy often
  • Important landing pages
  • Staging and migration URLs
  • Your own properties
  • Lower-budget client sites

Runs itself

Set it once. Get back to growth.

Choose how closely each page needs to be watched, then let TechDash keep running from your desktop and system tray while you focus on the work that moves the business forward.

Every 15 minutes

For URLs you really cannot afford to break.

Hourly

For important commercial and SEO pages.

Daily

For normal monitoring across your portfolio.

Weekly

For lower-risk pages that still deserve a watchful eye.

Background monitoring

Close the window and TechDash can continue running from the system tray.

Alerts where you work

Use desktop notifications, Slack, Microsoft Teams, or Discord for important incidents.

The proof

74 shipped checks. Plus your own custom checks.

TechDash ships with deterministic checks across indexability, availability, content, structured data, infrastructure, Google Search Console signals, and emerging search surfaces. Then you can add custom checks for the page-specific details your business, client, or campaign cannot afford to lose.

Local-first privacy

Your crawl data belongs to you.

TechDash runs on your Mac, Windows PC, or Linux machine and stores its crawl database locally.

  • Your monitored page data is stored on your computer.
  • Your licence covers the desktop app rather than a hosted crawl database.
  • External connections are used for the product features that need them, such as alerts, licence checks, Google Search Console, RDAP, TLS, DNS, and webhook delivery.
Exactly what connects to the internet?
TechDash software connects to the sites you monitor, Google Search Console (when enabled), alert destinations such as Slack, Microsoft Teams, and Discord (when enabled), and RDAP/WHOIS, DNS, and TLS for lookups. It only “phones home” to validate the licence. This only checks the license key and updates eligibility; it doesn’t include any information about how you use the software or the sites/URLs you’re monitoring.

FAQ

Questions before you buy

What is TechDash?

TechDash is a desktop app that keeps watch over your websites and tells you when something important changes. It can spot broken pages, unexpected redirects, indexing problems, changed canonicals, missing metadata, robots.txt changes, schema issues and plenty more — without you having to keep checking manually.

Who is TechDash for?

Anyone responsible for keeping websites healthy: SEOs, agencies, developers, web teams, IT teams and digital product managers. It's especially useful if you manage several websites or client sites and want to know about problems before somebody else finds them.

Is TechDash a cloud service?

No. TechDash runs on your own computer rather than sending your sites through a cloud crawling service. Your crawls, screenshots and monitoring history are stored locally, giving you more privacy and no recurring SaaS bill just to keep monitoring.

Do I need to keep TechDash open?

No. Close the main window and TechDash keeps running quietly in the background, checking your sites and sending alerts when needed. You can also have it launch automatically when you log in. Choosing Quit stops monitoring completely.

Does TechDash work offline?

TechDash doesn't need a permanent connection to our servers, but it obviously needs internet access to check your websites. If your computer goes offline, monitoring pauses and automatically continues once you're connected again.

What does TechDash monitor on each page?

TechDash watches for the technical SEO problems you'd normally hope to catch before they cause damage. That includes broken pages, redirects, soft 404s, indexing changes, titles and descriptions, headings, canonicals, hreflang, schema, analytics tags, links, images, robots directives and mobile viewport problems.

Does TechDash monitor more than just webpages?

Yes. TechDash also keeps an eye on important site-level resources and infrastructure, including robots.txt, XML sitemaps, llms.txt, SSL certificates, DNS, domain registration and your site's favicon. Different checks run at sensible intervals depending on how quickly they're likely to change.

How often can TechDash check my pages?

You can check pages every 15 minutes, hourly, daily or weekly. Daily is the default, and you can give particularly important pages their own faster schedule. For very large sites, it's usually better to monitor business-critical URLs more frequently and give less important pages a daily or weekly schedule.

Will monitoring thousands of pages slow my computer down?

It can if you ask TechDash to check very large numbers of URLs extremely frequently. Because TechDash runs on your computer, the workload depends on how many pages you monitor and how often you check them. You stay in control of the schedule.

Can I create my own checks?

Yes. You can create custom checks for one page or an entire site. For example, you could alert if a particular piece of text disappears, a header changes, a tracking tag is missing, or something unexpected appears in robots.txt. You decide whether each check is Advisory, Warning or Critical, and whether it should send a notification.

Can I monitor analytics and tracking tags?

Yes. TechDash can detect analytics tags during its normal page checks, and you can also create custom checks for particular values that should or shouldn't appear on your pages.

How do alerts work?

Important problems can trigger a desktop notification, even when the TechDash window is closed. You can also send alerts to Slack, Microsoft Teams or Discord. Issues can be Advisory, Warning or Critical, so minor problems can be recorded without constantly interrupting you.

Can TechDash alert my team?

Yes. As well as native desktop notifications, TechDash can send alerts to Slack, Microsoft Teams and Discord using webhooks.

What is the Health Report?

The Health Report gives you a quick way to see which websites need attention. Sites are ranked by Health Score, with open issues weighted by severity, so serious problems rise to the top instead of getting buried amongst minor warnings. You can also see how site health changes over time.

Can I monitor client websites?

Absolutely. TechDash works particularly well for agencies and consultants managing lots of sites. Give each site a friendly display name, search by name or hostname, and pause individual sites — or all monitoring — whenever you need to.

Can I pause monitoring?

Yes. You can pause and resume individual websites, or pause all monitoring from the TechDash tray.

Does TechDash connect to Google Search Console?

Yes, if you want it to. Connect Search Console to import important pages, track Search Analytics data and run URL Inspection checks on monitored URLs. Google's API quotas and rate limits are handled separately, so they won't create false website alerts.

What stays private?

Pretty much everything. Crawl data, page HTML, screenshots and webhook URLs stay on your computer. Passwords, Search Console access, webhook details and your license key are stored securely on the device. TechDash doesn't send us information about the websites you're monitoring.

What do I get with my license?

Your TechDash license is yours permanently and includes 12 months of software updates and support. The app doesn't suddenly stop working when those 12 months end.

What happens when my 12 months of updates end?

Nothing dramatic — TechDash keeps working. You can continue using your current version for as long as you like and re-download versions released while your updates were active. You only need to renew if you want newer releases and another year of support.

How do I renew my updates?

You can renew whenever you want at techdash.com/renew. Renew before your current period ends and another 12 months is added to it. If your updates have already expired, your new 12-month period starts from the date you renew.

How do software updates work?

TechDash checks automatically for new versions and lets you know when an update is available. You can also check manually at any time from Settings → Check for Updates.
