A JavaScript SEO check and an answer-structure check in one. Paste a page and see what survives text-first extraction, and which headings have no answer underneath them.

The short answerA passage gets used in an answer because it resolves a question cleanly on its own, and the unit is a heading plus the block directly beneath it. This tool strips scripts, styles and page chrome, reports what is actually left, and marks every heading as answered directly, answer buried, or no answer at all. In our audits that single relationship separates pages that get quoted from pages that do not more reliably than length, authority or markup — and the fix is editing, not writing more.
Paste the rendered DOM rather than view-source if your content depends on JavaScript. The gap between the two word counts is itself the finding.
Extractable content checker
Paste a page’s HTML. The tool removes what a text-first reader ignores, shows what survives, and marks every heading that is not answered directly underneath it.
Results appear here.
Runs entirely in your browser. Nothing you paste is uploaded, logged or stored, and there is no network request — which is also why it takes pasted text rather than a URL: a browser cannot read another site’s files without that site’s permission.
The question the checker is really asking
Not how much you wrote, but whether any block on the page can be lifted as a self-contained answer.
Not how much you wrote — whether any of it can be lifted
A passage gets used in an answer because it resolves a question cleanly on its own. The unit is not the page; it is a heading and the block directly beneath it. If that block restates the heading, sets context for three sentences, or trails off into a story before arriving at the point, there is nothing to lift, and the page is passed over in favour of one where there is.
Which is why the heading table is the main output
Everything else the tool reports is context. The table is the finding: every heading, and whether the thing under it answers it. In our audits this single measure separates pages that get quoted from pages that do not more reliably than length, authority or markup.
And why it strips the page first
Scripts, styles, navigation, headers, footers and forms are removed before anything is counted, because none of them contribute readable content and all of them inflate a naive word count. The number the tool reports is what is actually left.
The word count that matters is the one after stripping
If the page looks like two thousand words and the checker finds three hundred, that is a technical finding that outranks every editorial one.
A large gap means your copy is not in the HTML
If the page looks like two thousand words in a browser and the checker finds three hundred, the content is arriving through something a text-first reader does not execute. That is a technical finding rather than an editorial one, and it outranks everything else on the page.
Paste the rendered DOM if you are unsure
View-source shows what the server sent; the rendered DOM shows what a browser built. Running the checker against both is the fastest way to see whether the difference matters, and the gap between the two numbers is the answer.
Length itself is not the lever
We have never found a case where adding words to a page fixed an extraction problem. Pages that get quoted are pages where the answer sits immediately under the question, and that is usually a shorter page rather than a longer one.
Pages that get quoted are pages where the answer sits immediately under the question, and that is usually a shorter page rather than a longer one.
The three heading states
Every heading resolves to answered directly, answer buried, or no answer at all — and two of the three are fixed by editing rather than writing.
Answered directly
A substantive block follows the heading and gets to the point inside the first sentence or two. This is the state you want everywhere, and it is achievable by editing rather than by writing more.
Answer is buried
There is a block, it is long, and the answer is somewhere inside it. The fix is almost always to move the last sentence to the front. This single edit, repeated across a page, is the highest-return content work we do.
No answer under it
The heading is followed by another heading, an image, a short label, or nothing substantive. This is the state that costs a passage outright, and it is extremely common on pages built from a template where headings were used as section dividers rather than as questions.
What a good heading looks like
The question a person would actually type or say, in their words rather than yours. A heading reading ‘Pricing’ and a heading reading ‘What does a call-out cost?’ introduce the same paragraph, and only one of them matches how the question is asked.
Images, tables and the things that carry nothing
A fact rendered as a graphic is invisible, and alt text is a floor rather than a place for a paragraph-length fact.
An image conveys nothing to a text-first reader
A price list rendered as a graphic, a comparison table saved as a screenshot, a set of opening hours inside a designed banner — all invisible. Alt text is a floor, not a fix: it helps, and it is not where a paragraph-length fact belongs.
Tables are good when they are data
A real table of real values extracts cleanly and is one of the more quotable structures a page can contain. A table used to lay out a page is the opposite, and produces confused output. The checker counts tables but does not judge them; if your count is high and your data is low, that is worth looking at.
Lists are underrated
A short list of concrete items is easy to lift and hard to misread. Where a paragraph is enumerating anything, the list version is usually both better writing and better extraction.
Where this sits with everything else
Extractability is downstream of access and upstream of everything editorial. Check access first, then this, then the sentence-level rules.
Where a paragraph is enumerating anything, the list version is usually both better writing and better extraction.
What answer-first actually looks like in practice
The rewrite is usually smaller than people expect, because the answer is already in the paragraph’s final sentence.
The rewrite is smaller than people expect
A buried answer is rarely rewritten from scratch. In the great majority of cases the paragraph already contains the answer in its final sentence, placed there because that is how people naturally write: context, reasoning, conclusion. Moving that sentence to the front and letting the reasoning follow it changes nothing about the content and everything about whether it can be lifted.
It reads better for people too
This is not a trade-off between machines and readers. A paragraph that states its conclusion first and then supports it is easier to scan, easier to skip and easier to trust. The journalistic version of this advice predates any of the current technology by about a century.
It does not mean writing in fragments
Answer-first is about order, not brevity. A two-sentence answer followed by four paragraphs of detail is ideal: the lift-ready part is at the top and the depth that earns the reader’s trust is underneath it. Cutting a page to bullet points is a different and usually worse change.
Running it across a template rather than a page
Most sites have five templates rather than five hundred distinct pages, and extraction problems live in the template.
Most sites have five templates, not five hundred pages
Location pages, service pages, product pages, articles and the homepage usually account for everything. Extraction problems live in the template, so checking one representative page per template finds nearly every issue at a fraction of the effort.
Then check the outliers
The pages worth checking individually are the ones that matter commercially and the ones that were built by hand outside the template. Those two sets are small and they are where the template-level conclusion breaks down.
Re-check after any template change
A template edit can turn every heading on a thousand pages into a label, and nothing will report it. This is the check that belongs in the release process rather than in an annual audit.
A template edit can turn every heading on a thousand pages into a label, and nothing will report it.
What this checker will not tell you
Three things it cannot establish, including the one that has to be true before any of this matters.
Whether the question is worth answering
A page can be perfectly extractable on a question nobody asks. Structure decides whether you can be quoted; demand decides whether it matters. The two are independent and this tool only measures the first.
Whether you are allowed to be read at all
Access comes first. A flawlessly structured page behind a blocked crawler produces nothing, which is why the access check is the one we would run before this one.
How you compare with the page currently being quoted
It reports your page in isolation. Running the same check on whichever page currently holds the answer is usually more instructive than any score, and it takes the same two minutes.

Using this as a JavaScript SEO checker
The gap between what the server sends and what the browser builds is the oldest technical SEO problem in this field, and this measures it in two paste operations.
The render gap, measured rather than assumed
Paste your view-source HTML and note the surviving word count. Then paste the rendered DOM and note it again. If the two are close, your content is in the HTML and a text-first reader gets all of it. If the rendered count is far higher, the difference is content that only exists after scripts run.
Why a JavaScript SEO check matters more for answers than for search
Search crawling has handled rendering for years, with delays and caveats. Retrieval for answers is far less forgiving: the fetch is closer to a plain HTML request, and content assembled client-side is frequently simply absent. A page that ranks acceptably in search can be invisible to an assistant for exactly this reason.
What to do about a large render gap
Server-render or prerender the main content. Lazy-loading images and deferring interactive widgets is fine; assembling the copy itself with script is not, and no amount of answer-first editing fixes a page whose sentences are not in the HTML.
Retrieval for answers is far less forgiving: the fetch is closer to a plain HTML request, and content assembled client-side is frequently simply absent.
The reference tables, in one place
Four tables follow: what the tool strips, the heading states and their fixes, the failure classes ranked, and what to do when the word counts disagree. They summarise the sections above and are meant to be usable on their own.
| Element | Why | Counted separately |
|---|---|---|
| script | Carries no readable content | Yes, as a volume signal |
| style | Presentation only | Yes |
| noscript | Fallback, not content | Yes |
| template | Not rendered | Yes |
| nav | Repeats on every page | Yes |
| header and footer | Boilerplate | Yes |
| aside and form | Chrome, not content | Yes |
| State | What it means | Fix | Effort |
|---|---|---|---|
| Answered directly | A substantive block gets to the point immediately | None | None |
| Answer is buried | The answer is inside a long block | Move the last sentence to the front | Minutes |
| No answer under it | Heading followed by nothing substantive | Write two sentences | Minutes |
| Heading is a label | ‘Pricing’ rather than a question | Rewrite as the question asked | Minutes |
| Heading duplicated | The same heading twice | Differentiate or merge | Minutes |
| Heading with only an image | Fact conveyed visually | Write it out | Low |
| Heading with only a list | Often fine | Add a one-line lead if the list needs context | Low |
| Failure | Frequency | Severity | Fix type |
|---|---|---|---|
| Heading with no answer under it | Very high | High | Editorial |
| Answer buried in a long paragraph | Very high | High | Editorial |
| Headings written as labels not questions | High | Moderate | Editorial |
| Key facts only in images | Moderate | High | Editorial |
| Copy assembled by script | Moderate | Severe | Technical |
| Layout tables | Low | Moderate | Technical |
| Content behind interaction | Low | Severe | Technical |
| Gap | What it suggests | What to do |
|---|---|---|
| No gap | Copy is in the HTML | Nothing |
| Small gap | Minor enhancements are scripted | Usually fine |
| Large gap | Main content is assembled client-side | Serve it in the HTML |
| Source is near-empty | The page is an application shell | Server-render or prerender |
| Rendered is smaller | Something removes content after load | Investigate |
| Both are small | The page is genuinely thin | Editorial problem, not technical |
| Cannot get rendered copy | Content may need interaction | Treat as inaccessible |
