I Keep Building Website Tools. Now They Have a Home.

I build a surprising number of tools.

Some begin with a problem at work. Others appear because one of my websites is behaving suspiciously, a friend asks for help or I find myself repeating the same manual process for the fifth time. At that point, building a tool usually feels more reasonable than opening another spreadsheet.

Many of these tools start as rough scripts intended for one specific job. If they remain useful, I improve them. The interface becomes friendlier, the explanations become clearer and, eventually, they turn into something another person could use without needing me in the room.

That is how Michal’s Web Toolkit came together.

Practical tools for real website problems

The toolkit is a collection of free tools for understanding and improving websites. They cover problems I regularly encounter while working with content, SEO, migrations and the increasingly complicated relationship between websites and AI systems.

At the moment, the collection includes:

• AI Website Readiness Check, which examines what search engines, social platforms and AI crawlers can understand about a website.
• Content Refresh Check, which finds ageing pages, broken links and content that may deserve another look.
• Website Migration Check, which compares old and new websites to uncover missing pages, redirect problems and indexing mistakes.
• AI Visibility Explorer, which investigates whether AI assistants mention a brand, which competitors appear and what sources influence their answers.
• Meta Tags Health Check, which reviews metadata across an entire website instead of checking one page at a time.

Each tool is free to use and requires no registration. Reports are private unless you explicitly choose to share them.

Why make them free?

Because I am a heavy user of free tools myself.

Over the years, countless people have published utilities, libraries, guides and services that saved me hours of work. Many were created by someone who encountered a problem, solved it and decided that other people might find the solution useful too.

The web is better because people do that.

Publishing my own tools feels like a small way to pay some of it back. They already exist, I already use them and making them available to others costs less than the value I have received from free software and services over the years.

There is no complicated business model hiding behind the curtain. No registration funnel. No seven-day trial followed by fourteen increasingly desperate emails.

Just tools.

Feedback is the price

Free does not mean I want nothing in return.

If a tool helps you, confuses you, misses something obvious or produces a result that does not make sense, tell me. A few lines of honest feedback are more useful than a payment because they help me understand what should be improved or built next.

You do not need to search for a contact form. Ace, the assistant waiting in the bottom-right corner of Michal’s Space, is ready to collect your thoughts. Open the conversation and tell Ace which tool you used and what happened.

Compliments are welcome. Bug reports are probably more useful.

Michal’s Web Toolkit will continue to grow as I encounter new problems worth solving. Some ideas will become proper tools. Others will remain questionable experiments on my laptop-which is probably safer for everyone.

For now, the toolkit has a home. Have a look, try something and let me know what you think.
