I Built an API to Detect Website Tech Stacks – StackLens

Introducing StackLens: A Powerful API for Detecting Website Technology Stacks

In the ever-evolving world of web development, understanding the underlying technologies powering websites can be incredibly valuableโ€”whether for competitive analysis, inspiration, or integration into your own projects. That’s why Iโ€™m excited to share StackLens, a custom-built API designed to uncover the technology stack behind any website with just a single HTTP request.

What is StackLens?

StackLens is an efficient and lightweight API that can identify various components such as content management systems (CMS), e-commerce solutions, analytics tools, and other technologies used on a website. Created as a personal project to hone my skills in API development, it now serves as a practical tool for developers looking to streamline their workflow and gain insights into website architectures.

How Does It Work?

Simply send a request to the StackLens API with the target site URL, and it returns a detailed breakdown of the technology stack in use. This capability simplifies competitive analysis, technology research, or just satisfying curiosity about how certain websites are built.

Pricing & Access

To accommodate different needs, StackLens offers a free tier that allows for up to 50 lookups per dayโ€”ideal for testing or small-scale uses. For larger-scale needs, flexible paid plans are available to support bulk queries and comprehensive use cases.

Get Started Today

Iโ€™d love for fellow developers, digital strategists, and tech enthusiasts to give StackLens a try. Your feedback will be invaluable in refining the tool, so please share your thoughts or suggest features you’d find useful.
