DYNO Mapper
DYNO Mapper crawls a website you point it at and turns the result into an interactive visual sitemap, alongside content planning and inventory tools, accessibility testing against standard web guidelines, and a capped keyword-ranking feature. It's built for teams planning or auditing site structure — via integrations with Jira, Asana, Figma, GA4, and WordPress — rather than for deep technical SEO crawling on its own.
Crawling a site and rendering the result as an interactive tree diagram is a known, buildable pattern, and accessibility testing and rank tracking are themselves standard building blocks — but wiring crawl, visualization, content planning, and team-planning integrations (Jira, Asana, Figma) into one scheduled workspace is a multi-week build, not a data moat.
What you lose building it yourself
- ✕Auto-generated interactive visual sitemaps and content inventory in one view
- ✕Accessibility testing bundled directly with the crawl
- ✕Built-in Jira/Asana/Figma/GA4/WordPress integrations for team planning
- ✕Scheduled recrawls and keyword-rank tracking across projects
Why people still pay
A single script can map and visualize one site once; DYNO Mapper's real audience is teams who need that sitemap kept current across many projects, wired into their existing planning tools (Jira, Asana, Figma) and accessibility workflow — that ongoing, multi-tool integration is the product, not the one-time crawl.
BUILD YOUR OWN · CRAWLER + SITEMAP VISUAL (NOT THE FULL PLANNING SUITE)
An AI coding tool can build a crawler that maps a site's internal link structure and renders it as an interactive tree diagram in a browser — a realistic weekend-to-week project. Matching DYNO Mapper's accessibility testing, content planning/inventory tools, and built-in Jira/Asana/Figma/GA4 integrations for team workflows is a much larger, ongoing build.
StackPlaywright or Puppeteer for the crawl · a graph library (D3.js force-directed or tree layout) to render the sitemap in a browser · axe-core (or Pa11y) for accessibility checks · a small database to store crawl history.
Build a Python crawler using Playwright that, given a start URL, follows same-domain internal links up to 500 pages and records each page's URL, title, and parent link (for tree structure). Export the result as a JSON tree, then render it as an interactive, zoomable node-link diagram in a single HTML page using D3.js (force-directed or hierarchical tree layout — clicking a node opens that URL). Separately, run each crawled page through axe-core (via Playwright) and list any accessibility violations found, grouped per page.
Similar tools
Free alternative: Screaming Frog — its free tier crawls up to 500 URLs and includes the same crawl-tree/force-directed visualizations as the paid license; it doesn't cover DYNO Mapper's content-planning workflows, accessibility testing, or Jira/Asana/Figma integrations
QUESTIONS
Does DYNO Mapper maintain its own keyword-ranking database, like Semrush or Ahrefs?
No — keyword ranking is a capped, bundled feature (500 to 2,500 tracked keywords depending on plan), and the pricing and feature pages don't disclose whether the underlying position data comes from a self-run check or a third-party source.
Is there a free plan?
No permanent free tier — DYNO Mapper offers a 14-day free trial, after which the cheapest paid plan is $39/year (Lite) billed annually, or $49/month if billed month-to-month.
Does it only read an existing XML sitemap, or does it discover pages itself?
It crawls the site itself to discover pages via internal links — the pricing page lists a separate 'AI Sitemap Generator' feature for auto-structuring the result — rather than only reading an existing sitemap file.
