Google renders, but not instantly
Googlebot crawls the raw HTML first, then queues the page for rendering. Content that only appears after JavaScript can be indexed late, or missed if rendering fails. Seeing both views shows the gap.

Render a page with a real headless browser to see what a JavaScript-executing crawler sees: the post-render HTML and a screenshot, plus what changed versus the raw server HTML.
We load the URL in headless Chromium with the user-agent you pick, then compare it to the raw HTML.
This tool needs Cloudflare Browser Rendering, which is not enabled on this deployment. To turn it on:
BROWSER_TOKEN secret (plus the account id as BROWSER_ACCOUNT_ID), then redeploy.Until then, the other tools in the hub all work normally.

Plenty of bots, including some AI crawlers and social previewers, read only the raw HTML. If your links, copy, or metadata are injected by JavaScript, those crawlers never see them.
Compare the <title>, headings, body copy, and internal links between raw and rendered. Anything that appears only after render is content you are relying on Google to execute.
Server-side rendering or static pre-rendering puts the important content in the raw HTML for every crawler. StudioHawk helps teams choose and ship the right rendering strategy.
