How it works
Three steps from sign-up to fully automated URL redirect mapping — no server changes required.
Add your project
Enter your site URL and sitemap. We crawl it immediately and build a searchable URL mapping index of every live page.
Install one snippet
Paste a single script tag into your site (Shopify, WordPress, Webflow, or custom). It only activates on real 404 pages.
Visitors get rescued
When a broken URL is hit, our AI matching engine finds the closest live page and issues a 301 redirect automatically, in real time.
What you get
Everything you need to rescue traffic and maintain SEO through URL changes.
Who it's for
Any site with changing URLs benefits — but these cases see the biggest impact.
E-commerce stores
Products go out of stock, get renamed, or move collections. Automatically redirect visitors to the closest available product instead of a dead page.
Content publishers
Articles get archived, merged, or reshuffled. Keep readers engaged by rescuing inbound links from Google, newsletters, and social shares.
Site migrations
Moving platform or restructuring URLs? Use Redirect Mapper as your URL migration tool — it catches the long tail of broken links that slip through your main redirect map automatically.
Large websites
Hundreds or thousands of pages means an unmanageable number of potential 404s. Let automation handle the tail — focus your time on the high-value ones.

Frequently asked questions
About Redirect Mapper — AI redirect mapping tool, redirect map generator, and URL migration software
What is Redirect Mapper and how does it work?
Redirect Mapper is an automated 404 rescue tool. A lightweight JavaScript snippet on your site detects 404 pages in real time and queries our matching engine, which compares the broken URL against a crawled index of every live page on your site. The closest match is found in milliseconds and the visitor is shown a brief redirect notice before landing on the correct page — with no manual rules required.
How does the URL matching algorithm work?
When a 404 is triggered, we tokenise the broken URL path into slugs and keywords and score every live URL in your sitemap index by path structure, word overlap, and character similarity. The highest-confidence match wins. You can always override any automatic match with a manual redirect rule in your project settings, and you can disable automatic matching for specific URLs entirely.
What platforms does it work on?
The script snippet works on any website that can run custom JavaScript — Shopify, WordPress, Webflow, custom-built sites, and more. Your sitemap must be in standard XML format (virtually every platform generates one automatically). For Shopify specifically, the snippet is wrapped in a Liquid condition so it only fires on genuine 404 template pages.
What is dead-destination detection?
If a URL in your sitemap is later removed or goes offline, Redirect Mapper detects the dead destination in real time — before any more visitors are sent there. Your dashboard flags the affected redirect so you can update the target. This prevents a situation where a fixed 404 silently becomes a different dead end.
What redirect limits apply to each plan?
The free Starter plan includes 1,000 redirects per month and 1 project. Growth ($29/month) gives you 10,000 redirects and up to 5 projects. Pro ($79/month) covers 50,000 redirects across unlimited projects. Bot traffic is automatically excluded from all counts — limits only apply to real visitor redirects. Enterprise plans with unlimited redirects are available on request.
Can I set manual redirect rules?
Yes. Overrides let you specify an exact source URL and destination URL for any path on your site. Overrides take priority over automatic matching and are applied instantly. They're ideal for high-traffic or high-value URLs where you want precise control, such as a discontinued product landing page that should always point to a specific replacement.
Can I export my redirect logs?
Your dashboard shows all redirect events with source URL, destination URL, hit count, referrer, and timestamps. You can use this data to build or audit your permanent .htaccess / nginx redirect rules, import into your CMS redirect manager, or report on recovered traffic during a site migration.
Can I invite my team?
Yes. You can invite team members at three access levels: Admins have full access to all projects and account settings. Members can manage redirects, overrides, and run sitemap crawls on assigned projects. Viewers get read-only access to assigned projects. Team access is available on Growth and Pro plans.
Does Redirect Mapper use AI for URL matching?
Yes. The redirect AI engine tokenises every broken URL into slugs and keywords, then scores every live page in your URL mapping index using path structure, word overlap, and character similarity. The result is a high-confidence match in milliseconds — without you writing a single redirect rule. You can think of it as an AI redirect generator that continuously learns from your live sitemap.
Can I generate a redirect map or URL mapping file?
Yes. Redirect Mapper acts as a redirect map generator — every match it makes is logged to your dashboard with the source URL, destination URL, hit count, and referrer. You can export this as a CSV to use as a complete redirect map in .htaccess, nginx, Shopify's URL redirect manager, or any other CMS redirect tool. It also works as a URL mapping generator for site migrations: run the crawler, collect the redirect logs, and export a clean 301 redirect map ready to import.
How is Redirect Mapper different from other redirect tools or redirect software?
Most redirect tools require you to manually create every rule. Redirect Mapper automates the entire process: it crawls your sitemap, detects 404s in real time, and applies intelligent URL matching without any manual input. Unlike static redirect map software that only handles planned redirects, Redirect Mapper also catches unplanned 404s — typos, stale external links, deleted pages — and resolves them automatically. The result is a self-maintaining redirection tool that keeps improving as your site changes.
Is Redirect Mapper a good tool for URL migration?
Yes — it is designed to be the best URL migration tool for the long tail. Every site migration has a planned redirect map for the major pages, but hundreds of smaller URLs always slip through. Redirect Mapper runs in the background after your migration goes live, catches every broken URL that was missed, and resolves it automatically. You get a live migration redirect tool that patches gaps in real time rather than discovering them through lost rankings weeks later.
