between your sitemap and Google’s index. It runs on your machine in

Docker, uses your own Google credentials, and gives you the answer to

“is Google actually finding my pages?” in under two minutes.

Beacon Cloud is a hosted version coming later — for users who’d

rather not run Docker themselves. It will add:

- Scheduled weekly scans (no need to run it manually)

- Email/Slack alerts when index status changes

- Multi-property dashboards for agencies

- Schema/DOM validation

- Historical scan comparison

This page is the waitlist. Subscribe and you’ll be the first to know

when Cloud is ready to test. No commitment, no spam, no pressure to

upgrade — local Beacon will always be free.

This Substack is reader-supported. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.

In the meantime, the open-source version is ready today:
