About DeadLinkTool

A practical broken link checker for pages, PDFs, and docs

DeadLinkTool helps teams find broken links in public website pages, downloadable PDFs, Markdown files, GitHub READMEs, GitLab docs, and other Git-based documentation.

What the tool covers

  • Single public website pages and the links found on them
  • PDF files, including external URLs and internal PDF destinations
  • Markdown files, README pages, docs folders, and relative paths
  • Supported edit workflows for Markdown and some external PDF links

How we handle trust and privacy

The service is free to use and does not require an account. Submitted content is processed to run the requested check or export the updated file you ask for, and is not kept as part of a user account or scan history.

Who it is for

DeadLinkTool is built for content teams, SEO teams, documentation owners, agencies, and operations teams that need a fast way to review link health before publishing or after changes.
