What is OnScanner?

OnScanner is a web security and privacy scanner built by Byte Optimizer. It checks a domain you own or are authorized to test for vulnerabilities, OWASP Top 10 issues, TLS problems, email authentication, trackers, consent behavior and Global Privacy Control handling, then reports each result with the evidence behind it.

Its central claim is findings you can prove. Each finding shows what was observed, where, and what was expected, so a reader can verify it. Results are live and never cached, and they arrive as a structured report, a JSON API response or a PDF.

How does OnScanner work?

You point OnScanner at a domain and it runs specialist engines in parallel, signed out or behind your login. Most scans finish in minutes. You choose a scan type (security, privacy or full) and a depth: Quick, Advanced or Deep, with options such as exploit verification and subdomain discovery.

The engines are deterministic, and the company says no model decides whether a finding exists. Confirmed and tentative findings are labeled apart, and a tentative one can never fail a control. When a check cannot prove a finding, it says so. Exploit checks are in-band and non-destructive.

Key features of OnScanner

The security engine covers OWASP Top 10 and API checks, CVEs on your detected stack with EPSS and KEV context, protocols from SSLv3 to TLS 1.3, SPF, DKIM and DMARC, product and version fingerprinting with end-of-life flags, open ports, exposed files, WAF detection and optional subdomain discovery.

The privacy engine uses a real browser to record trackers, pixels, fingerprinting and cookies across 40+ categories. It clicks Reject all and Accept all, sends the Global Privacy Control signal, reads Google Consent Mode pings, and flags third parties your privacy policy does not name. Optional AI Findings adds a summary and attack chains.

Key Features

Pros & Cons

Pros

  • Every finding shows what was observed, where and what was expected, so results can be verified independently.
  • Deterministic engines decide findings; confirmed and tentative findings are labeled apart.
  • Covers security, privacy, consent and Global Privacy Control in a single scan.
  • States compliance coverage honestly: 25 of 229 controls checkable externally, with the rest named.
  • Free plan with 5 credits at signup, and every plan includes all scan types and modes.
  • MCP server and REST API support agent workflows and release gating.

Cons

  • An external scan checks only 25 of 229 compliance controls; the rest need your own evidence.
  • Compliance output is evidence only, not a certification, audit or legal advice.
  • The Free plan tops up to just 2 credits every 30 days, so regular scanning requires paid credits.
  • Only scan sites you own or have permission to test, and the sources list no third-party integrations.

Is OnScanner good for small businesses?

It can suit small teams, since the Free plan lets you run a first scan and credits are paid per scan. Monitoring and team seats start on Pro at $129/month, which may be sizable for very small budgets.
