Show HN: IndexFast – see which of your pages search engines actually know about

IndexFast launched as a free-for-one-site tool that watches a site's sitemap and automatically submits new and updated URLs through IndexNow to Bing, Yandex, Naver, Seznam and Yep, with paid plans at $19 and $99 per 30 days. The service tracks up to 500 URLs on the free tier with daily sitemap checks, and offers an MCP server, REST API, CLI and SKILL.md so AI editors such as Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf and VS Code can submit pages directly. IndexFast states that Google does not accept IndexNow and that no tool can guarantee Google indexing, so it instead inspects URLs for noindex tags, canonical mismatches, redirects, robots.txt blocks and HTTP errors and resubmits sitemaps via Search Console.

Search engines and how IndexFast reaches each one
Engine What IndexFast does
--- ---
Bing IndexNow auto-submit on every plan. Direct Webmaster API submissions with your key on Pro and Unlimited.
Yandex Receives every IndexNow submission. On Pro and Unlimited, also its recrawl queue with your Yandex token.
Naver & Seznam Receive IndexNow submissions. No portal uploads.
Connect Search Console to inspect URLs and resubmit your sitemap. Indexing API only for eligible JobPosting and livestream pages, on Pro and Unlimited.
Baidu On Pro and Unlimited, pushes new URLs with your Baidu token, within Baidu's daily quota.

IndexNow takes batches of 1,000, Bing batches of 100.

A rate limit parks the site's jobs: 1 hour, doubling up to 24 hours. They never fail.

Retries carry ±20% jitter and honour Retry-After. Network errors get 3 attempts.

See confirmed submissions, inspect queued jobs, and drain the queue on demand.

About two minutes. Add your domain, we find your sitemap, then you put one small key file in your site's public folder and click Verify. Your AI editor can do the file step for you.

Every engine in the IndexNow network, including Bing, Yandex, Naver, Seznam and Yep, on every plan. On Pro and Unlimited you can also add your own keys for direct Bing Webmaster API, Yandex recrawl and Baidu URL push submissions.

Google does not take IndexNow, and nobody can guarantee Google indexing. Connect Search Console and IndexFast inspects your URLs and resubmits your sitemap, while IndexFast's own checks flag noindex, canonical, redirect, robots.txt and HTTP problems. The Indexing API is used only for eligible job and livestream pages.

No. The dashboard covers everything. If you use Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code or Windsurf, connect our MCP server and just ask your AI to set it up or submit new pages.

Plans are prepaid for 30 days and never auto-charge. After the end date you get 3 days of grace, then the account moves to Free: your first site keeps running, extra sites , and nothing is deleted.

Pay for 30 days when you need more. No auto-renewal.
