Use cases

Built for the moments traffic disappears.

01

Post-migration cleanup

Mop up the 404s your initial redirect plan missed — edge cases, long tail and forgotten old URLs.

Even a great migration leaves 5–15% of long-tail URLs behind. This is the fast lane to recover them.

02

Backlink recovery

Recover link equity from external sites still pointing to dead pages — restore rankings and referrer traffic.
