IndexChex specifications
Published · By IndexChex
In brief
IndexChex charges 1 credit per URL for standard submission and index checks, 60 credits per URL for instant submission and 5 credits per backlink monitor check. Jobs accept up to 10,000 URLs standard, 1,000 instant and 25,000 drip-fed over 1 to 30 days; scheduled re-checks run 1 to 5 days later.
Scope
This page lists the operating limits and unit costs of IndexChex as published by IndexChex as of October 2026. Each row corresponds to a fact on the claims and sources ledger. Where a figure is a measured result rather than a fixed limit, it is not on this page; those figures, and how they are produced, are on the methodology page.
Credit costs
| Action | Credits | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Standard URL submission | 1 per URL | Completes within 24 hours |
| Instant URL submission | 60 per URL | For same-day needs |
| Drip-feed submission | 1 per URL | Standard submission spread over time |
| Index check | 1 per URL | Four query forms per URL |
| Scheduled re-check | 1 per URL | Reserved at submission, returned if cancelled |
| Backlink monitor check | 5 per source/target pair per run | Per cadence run |
Converting credits to money depends on how they were bought. The per-URL cost table gives the dollar figure for every plan and pack, and the credit system page explains balances, rollover and expiry.
Job size limits
| Job type | Maximum URLs per job | Time parameter |
|---|---|---|
| Standard submission | 10,000 | Within 24 hours |
| Instant submission | 1,000 | Minutes |
| Drip-feed submission | 25,000 | 1 to 30 days |
| Index check | 10,000 | Results exportable to CSV |
Jobs larger than the limit must be split. The drip-feed ceiling is higher because the same URLs are released in daily portions instead of all at once.
Submission options
| Option | Allowed values | Combination rules |
|---|---|---|
| Drip days | 1 to 30 | Cannot be combined with a scheduled re-check |
| Scheduled re-check delay | 1 to 5 days | Cannot be combined with drip feed |
| Resubmission of misses | One click from check results | Creates a new submission job |
The re-check window is 1 to 5 days. Product documentation for standard jobs describes Googlebot crawling within minutes, indexing beginning 5 to 12 hours after the job completes, most indexed URLs appearing 24 to 48 hours after the crawl, and indexing being typically as complete as it will get by day 5. The upper bound of the window matches that last point. The scheduled checks page covers the feature in detail.
Index check method
| Property | Value |
|---|---|
| Data source | Live Google search results |
| Query forms per URL | 4: bare URL, quoted URL, site: URL, inurl: URL |
| Indexed when | The URL appears for any of the four forms |
| Output | Indexed or not indexed per URL, CSV export |
Further detail is on the index checker page.
Backlink monitor
| Property | Values |
|---|---|
| Cadences | One-time, daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly |
| Fields recorded | Link present, rel values (nofollow, sponsored, ugc), robots.txt access for Googlebot, meta robots and X-Robots-Tag, canonical URL, source page indexed |
| Checked outcomes | healthy, missing_backlink, robots_blocked, not_indexable |
| Incomplete outcomes | source_unreachable, anti_bot_blocked, provider_error, parse_error, failed |
See the backlink monitor page for how each outcome is determined.
API
| Version | Coverage | Authentication |
|---|---|---|
| v1 | Index-check jobs, index-submit jobs, balance | Per-user API key |
| v2 | Mirrors SpeedyIndex's API schema; switch by changing the base URL | Per-user API key |
Endpoint references are on API v1 and API v2.
Fixed policies
| Policy | Value |
|---|---|
| Crawl guarantee | Googlebot crawling is guaranteed |
| Indexing guarantee | None; indexing is Google's decision |
| Refunds for unindexed URLs | Not offered |
| Google Indexing API | Not used |
| Free trial or signup credits | None |
| Pack credit expiry | None while the account is active |
| Subscription rollover cap | 2x the plan's monthly allotment |
The wording and exceptions behind each row are on the policies page.
FAQ
What is the largest job IndexChex accepts?
A drip-feed job, which accepts up to 25,000 URLs spread over 1 to 30 days. Standard jobs and index-check jobs accept up to 10,000 URLs; instant jobs accept up to 1,000.
Can drip feed and a scheduled re-check be used on the same job?
No. The two options cannot be combined on one submission. A drip job can be checked afterwards with a separate index-check job.
How long does a standard job take?
Standard jobs complete within 24 hours. Product documentation describes indexing starting 5 to 12 hours after completion, with most indexed URLs appearing 24 to 48 hours after the crawl.
Is a scheduled re-check charged if it is cancelled?
No. The 1 credit per URL is reserved when the submission is created and returned if the scheduled check is cancelled.
