HTTP Compression Checker
Find out instantly whether a URL serves compressed responses — and how many bytes it's wasting if it doesn't.
Live on the Apify Store — run it instantly or call it as an agent tool via Apify MCP.
What you get
- Detects the response
Content-Encoding: gzip, brotli (br), deflate, or none. - Measures the compressed transfer size vs. the uncompressed body and computes the exact savings %.
- Flags text/HTML/CSS/JS resources that arrive uncompressed — the easy wins that are slowing your site.
- Single URL or bulk list, follows redirects, reports the final URL and HTTP status.
Input
{"url": "https://github.com","urls": ["https://example.com", "google.com"],"maxUrls": 50}
url— a single URL to check.urls— a list of URLs (bare domains are fine;https://is added automatically).maxUrls— safety cap per run (default 50, max 200).
Output
One dataset item per URL:
{"url": "https://github.com","finalUrl": "https://github.com/","status": 200,"contentType": "text/html; charset=utf-8","encoding": "gzip","compressed": true,"compressedBytes": 53120,"uncompressedBytes": 268044,"savingsPct": 80.18,"flaggedUncompressed": false,"checkedAt": "2026-06-24T00:00:00.000Z"}
flaggedUncompressed: true means a compressible text resource was served with no compression — fix it for a quick speed win.
