About

DJ Checkup is a web-based security checker for Django sites. A user submits a site URL, and the service runs automated checks for common configuration issues such as HTTPS usage, DEBUG mode being enabled, open admin access, and missing security headers.

The service stores each scan result and provides a unique URL for later review. It does not publish the individual checks and states that results are not shared with others.

This free tier has real utility but no published paid plan to anchor against, so the value is estimated conservatively at about $2/month. It appears to be perpetual and uncapped for the listed checks, with no credit-card requirement mentioned, so it scores as a small but genuinely useful always-free offering.
