Free Changelog / Release Notes Checker

Enter any website URL and get a plain-English changelog score — 12 automated checks for the homepage changelog link, a page that loads, a page titled as a changelog, versioned entries, entry dates, change categories, semver-shaped identifiers, upgrade or migration guidance, an RSS or Atom feed, nav/footer placement, placeholder copy, and marketing fluff that decide whether your release notes actually build trust. Heuristics are stated as heuristics throughout.

Privacy: we fetch the URL you enter to run the checks, but we never store it. The only things recorded are an anonymous pageview and, on a scored result, an anonymous "grader run" for our own stats. Public websites only.

What the checker checks

The gate

Can visitors find the changelog?

A changelog link on the homepage, a changelog page that loads, and a linked release-detail page such as the release archive.

The entries

Are releases documented?

A page titled as a changelog, versioned entries, entry dates, change categories, and semver-shaped identifiers.

The trust

Can people follow along?

Upgrade or migration guidance, an RSS or Atom feed, nav/footer placement, no placeholder copy, and plain factual entries with no marketing fluff.
