urlscan.io is a **URL and website scanner** and “**A sandbox for the web**.” It supports Public Scan options including **Scan Visibility**, **Country Selection**, **User Agent**, and HTTP referer settings. “Controls which country the URL will be scanned from.” “Make sure you understand the different visibility levels.”

**Scan visibility**

- “Public Scans are visible to anyone using urlscan.io. Public Scans should be used when you want to publicly document the state of a website and do not care about who is able to see the scan.”

- “Unlisted Scans are only visible to yourself and users of urlscan Pro. They are not visible to the general public.”

- “Private Scans are only visible to yourself, they are not visible to other users through our search API or the urlscan Pro product. Private Scans are perfect for URLs you don't want to share with anyone.”

**API and threat intelligence plans**

“All plans integrate with dozens of commercial SOAR and Threat Intelligence platforms.” Subscriptions can be used as part of a Team. Plans include API modules and Threat Hunting modules, with quotas for Private Scans, Unlisted Scans, Public Scans, Search Requests, Result Requests, and Residential / Tor scanning.

“You can perform this many Search Requests against our Search API or UI. Each Search Request can contain a complex query term which queries for multiple terms simultaneously.” “You can retrieve this many API results for individual scans from our Results API.”

Commercial features listed include “Access to the urlscan Pro - Threat Hunting platform,” “Phishing Feed,” and the ability to “Quickly scan websites from different geographical locations, residential IP addresses and the Tor network. Choose different device settings.”
