verified May 27, 2026

SEO middleware that serves pre-rendered HTML to search engine bots while keeping zero performance impact on human visitors. Current stable version is 1.3.2, with regular updates. Key differentiators: seamless integration with Next.js (single-line setup), Netlify Edge Functions, and Express.js; automatically detects a wide range of bots (Google, Bing, Yandex, social media crawlers, AI bots like GPTBot and Claude); supports custom API URL, extra bots, and exclusion paths. Built by Rank Deploy, it offers a simple, efficient alternative to more complex prerendering solutions.
